Hello Fabien,
I have one of these lenses - I've never owned any other 400mm lenses so
I can't compare it to anything but it seems good to me - good contrast
and sharpness, and easy to focus. It's very heavy, though - about 2kg!
I think $250 is a very high price for it - I got mine for 55 pounds
(about $80). Maybe I was just lucky?
