  • Reviewed in Canada on September 25, 2021
    I was a little concerned when I got the package, the actual lens box came with two crushed corners but I tested it and seems to be working fine.
    It fits my Canon Rebel T7i without problems, the camera is set to M and no additional settings are required so far.
    It is amusing how the Chinese products are marketed, the description in the box says, "PROFESSIONAL HD Lens", "Platinum Series High Definition", for $157, tax incl. is far from being a professional lens.
    But it works! the initial prep requires to adjust the ring for the tripod quick release plate to ensure the camera is level, see pics, first the Philips screw needs to be loosen and then the thumbscrew, use a #0 screwdriver, when the plate is levelled tighten the screw first, it is aluminum, don't over-tighten.
    The lens accept 67mm accessories, the squirrel picture was taken at about 25m with the lens set at 420mm, the camera/lens combo is 1.193kg, but a Timer/Shutter Release Remote Control is a must (widely available at 鶹); the white flower picture was taken trough a window with screen, still pretty good I think, I just need to re- learn to use manual lenses.
    I have to continue testing it at different light conditions. I'll keep updating this review.
    Conclusion: I think, so far, I made a good purchase.
