I'm looking to get this lens as an entry level general purpose zoom lens. This video is better quality than I expected but the movement is very exaggerated.
@remondo is a nice lens for entry level, to get pictures at 200mm you need to have a tripod and light to shoot, in video mode like this the movement is a shame BUT THIS VIDEO is in CROP mode then the movement is more visible than video on full HD
@clarkcapistrano it was shot in a tripod, the movement (i think) is because the OIS active (must be off on tripod's), anyway this lenses with OIS on/off at 200mm have a lot of movement, for me was virtually impossible to get it steady on 200mm, even the most tiny breath closer to the lenses have an effect. The OIS works amazing but this don't do magic in my cheap tripod or in my amateur hands.
