I know u get what u pay for, but was curious though if anyone has input on this lens. But, a 600mm lens for under $300...is it worth it or is the lens that bad? Safe to assume though, tripod is a must!

Though it's about a different lens, the length and quality are about the same as the one discusssed in this thread: https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=103319

Post #222 finally has some sample pics: https://photography-on-the.net …hp?p=857388&pos​tcount=222


You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.
