Customers are mixed about the clarity of the camera lens. Some mention that it has good clarity, while others say that the image looks much clearer in the view finder than the actual image.

"...I took a walk in the park and took a few images. It doesn't have image stabilization so you might need to set the shutter speed on your camera high..." Read more

"I mean, it is not the sharpest lens in the market, and it doesn't have image stabilization, so if you want to record videos be aware that you must..." Read more

"I knew the lens did not have image stabilization, but underestimated just how much of a big deal that really is...." Read more

Great lens for the money!

Great lens for the money!
I’ve recently put up bird feeders in my back yard and found that my camera phone just wasn’t taking good enough pictures. I bought this lens so I could get better pics of the birds from afar. The lens came in perfect condition and a day earlier than expected. I took it right out of the box and just snapped this pic with my Cannon Rebel XS. Very pleased!

5.0 out of 5 stars I like it. No problems yet
Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2016
I like it. No problems yet. I've used it for a few shoots so far and for years I was wondering how to get the nice blurred background until I learned more about photography and lenses. I learned that shooting at longer focal lengths and a shallow aperture really gives that look. So this is a good cheap lense to start out with. You have to be really , really still when using it especially the more you zoom out so that the picture is as sharp as possible. The more you zoom out, the more susceptible it is to shaking.
