Very interesting lens but I'm afraid there is something wrong with this
picture. A 70-350mm f/4.5 lens needs a clear aperture of 77.8mm. The
82mm filter size listed on the lens is consistent with that. However,
the seller goes on to state that the maximum aperture is f/6.3 from 140
to 700mm. It's clear that the 140-700mm range is coming from the 2X
converter which, applied to a 4.5 lens will yield a f/9 lens, not an
f/6.3 lens.
