CONCLUSION from basic test in low light condition :

1. AF speed is FAST and as good as my 500mm F4 IS2

2. from the picture and more test result , it is sharp and without any weird bokeh appear

3. the size and weight real small and light (about 700gram different with 500mm F4 IS2)

4. easily handheld 😀
