Its very sharp at full zoom and its one of my favorite lenses other than the size. I personally use a 80-320mm instead now since I think its sharper at full zoom. 70-200/210mm Pentax-F is pretty damn good too for the $20-30 they go for.

Don't pay more than $60-80 imo, its pretty old (10-15 years). Otherwise lots of bang for buck and I would def recommend it over the 1980s-90s 70-300mms (I wouldn't pay over $40 for one, they often have really bad purple fringing and distortions)

I mostly take aviation photos since I work at a airport, this was at full zoom. Its very good as a general walkaround lens imo. Compact + 55mm for normal pics and 300mm for reach shots
