  1. this would be great on my Nex-5n! ...and actually not badly priced...I don't see that it has image stabilization, which would be somewhat useful on a 750mm lens.

  2. Yes very nice lens indeed!!! Ther ewill never be image stabilization in lens as standard alpha cameras have in body stabilization :(

    The only way to get in lens stabilization for the NEX is either use e mount lens with stabilization or use conorus EF to Nex adapter and then you can use canon super zooms with IS!

  3. One good thing though with the 500 G SSM, is the "SSM" will make for a very capable video lens!!!
