Good shots, they look fine to me. I love my 50-230 as well. This lens is one of the best deals in the photog world IMO. And it has ois at that price, truly a great deal for the money. I got mine years ago, brand new for like 150 dollars.

Thanks! Glad they look ok.

I agree – this thing is crazy good for the price. Park it at F8, point and shoot.

Of course it's slower than a 100-year-old tortoise. Of course it's not quite as sharp as a prime or Red badge at most apertures.

But my God – for what it costs, what more could you want from a lens??
