Phoenix 650-1300mm f/8-16 Lens

the only down fall to this lens well there isn't one it will simply make you a better photo taker great range got it for my trip to alaska and boy can you get up on the action with out even getting close it is a manual lens but very easy to use due to its weight recommend heavy duty tri pod

This is a well made lens with big magnifaciation but it's heavy. The construction is not the best because if you put on a stand and make it all a way to 1300 mm then the mounting is around the middle and there is a lot of weight to the camera side. You have to have very good (means expensive) tripod to support it. Also remote contoll or timer shutter is recomended in order to avoid blur pictures. It works only in full manual mode but its easy to focus.
I recomend this lens to those who don't want ot spend too much but would like to have a big time zoom lens.

very good service.
cost for Customs importation Canada is very big

rating excellent

Thanks :-)

WOW...what a lens..for that price..probably the best deal around...
fits easily to my camera..and works really well..
I bought this lens because of the combination of price and power..I wasn't really expecting the quality that I recieved..and super fast shipping.I am extremely happy with the lens..and would gladly recommend it and the seller to anyone looking for an upgrade at an exceptional price..this deal is great!!!
Thank you Cameta Camera..

i bought this phoenix 650-1300mm not expecting what this toys can do to get my picture alot closer than what i had thought..

The lens is pretty clear and seems fairly distortion free so it has good value of for the price, but don't bother buying any lens filters for it. It is decribed as using 95mm filters but the fixed hood makes it impossible to screw the filters onto the front lens. May be problematic shooting outdoors which is the primary reason to purchase a lens of this power, but hopefully the lens hood will help.

IT's not as sharp as I'd expect but it may improve as I learn to use it better. it's not idea dor the D40 Nikon
