Hi folks,

How is this lens for video? Is the AF motor noisy? How's the stabilization?

TIA!

Haven't done video but...

Stablisation is ok - I think I've had 2.5 stops out of it at the full 640mm end, so about 1/100 - 1/150 - you need to be bang on with shutter speed as this is already a fairly soft lens.

AF motor is a touch noisy yes

Thanks for the info.

I have a buddy who wants to shoot (wildlife) videos, and I was wondering how well this lens might work.  Thanks!
