Before I received it, I was very skeptical; quality! usability, value! All these questions were lingering in my mind. Then I received it. At first impression, I was elated! The build quality was not bad at all, it reminded me of Canon's big lenses, though much less fancy. What struck me as odd, was not the external zooming or focusing design rather than the short end of the zooming tube left to support the weight of the lens at ful zoom range. I could understand the designer's point of view from an engineering perspective, what I could not understand was that a 2" extra length in the internally moving tube beyond the maximum zooming range would have added enough stability to render the lens far superior than its cuurent pathetic configuration, yet nobody gave this thought a rat's tail end. It is made in China, yet the add stated that it was made in Japan. It appears that, though some chinese products are equal to the Japanese when under strict engineering and manufacturing tolerances, left to their own whims, they try to cut corners that cannot possibly be cut from an American end user's perspective, rendering the whole thing a fiasco. Fortunately, this is not a total fiasco, but I sure hope that somebody out there is reading these letters right now! Only 2" of extra aluminum tubing would do the job just fine. Another aspect, albeit, this time strictly esoteric; the lens is so bland! When you hold a German or a Japanese Lens, apart from the instantly evident signs of high quality, you will notice that it has had a lot of thought when the general looks were being considered. This one is lacking luster, which when added, would not really add any extra cost. Just placing some fancy tags and inscriptions with multi color zooming lines scheme would make a world of a difference to the appearence and the seeming quality. Again, I hope someone is reading these letters right now! Now to usability: If you think you could use this lens for anything other than mounted on extremely steady tripod for long to very long exposure shots, you will have wasted your time and money. This lens could only be practical for nature, some wild life, and landscape, where quick shots are not even part of your prepearation, much less your consideration. Quality wise, well, for the price and the market for which it is intended, it is a very good tool, all you need is a good knowledge of its capability and limitations, and a super heavy tripod as well as super majestic targets to shhot it with this lens. The rest is superflowous. Conclusion: You are not a pro, you have $300 to spare, you enjoy photography and are willing to go distances for good shots, and you are not thinking of selling your products to photo agencies! If these conditions meet you half way, buy the darn thing, it is the only lens out there capable of doing what a hunting rifle is capable ofPhotographic Lenses: Photographers Guide to Characteristics, Quality, Use and Design; bringing you the head of a trophy from a quarter mile away!
Customer Review: Phoenix 650-2600mm Telephoto Lens
This lens not bad for the money,Can't hand hold it. Its long and heavy, I found that it leaves halos around some of the images like ducks and eagles I have been taking photos of.Other wise it not a bad lens used with a tri-pod or mini pod. If you can't afford a canon hi end lens like i would of like this one not bad.
So it's Christmas time and everybody wants to make Christmas things. Advertisers want Christmas looking photos for their amazing sells. Digital art people want photos of Santa Claus and reindeer.
Christmas stock photos can be very highly profitable for the Christmas season. The best thing about Christmas stock photos is that once you have a good collection you can expect a high demand for your photos every year during Christmas!
Whether you are a professional photographer or a beginner, you can earn some money from Christmas stock photos. The best thing is, you don't really need to set up any sets or anything for it. Simply take pictures of the decorations at your house, visit other people houses and take pictures of their decorations. Put your dog in a Christmas costume and create some stock photos of that.
If you want to be really successful taking Christmas stock photos then you can build up a collection of Christmas photos. Be sure to temporarily specialize. For example, take many pictures of dogs in costumes and specialize in that. Or specialize in stockings and such.
When you take the Christmas stock photos you will then have to submit them to micro stock photo agencies. There are many micro stock agencies you can submit to and they will all pay you when someone downloads one of your pictures.
When taking stock photos be sure that you try to make them the highest quality possible. If you don't have a lighting studio try to use diffusers or mirrors to make the light professional looking. The higher quality your images the more profitable they will be.
So when Christmas comes around take pictures but make sure that they are really good pictures. Because if they are they can be earning you money every single year during the season when everyone wants those photos.
