Sony Alpha G lenses

Anyone have a Sony G lens? I am thinking about a SAL70400G. A little expensive but I am not really happy with the SAL75300 kit lens. Comments please

I have a Sony HX5V and it has the Sony G glass. It is great glass. I have seen the lens you are considering used on A77 and the images were great. I think you won't be disappointed.

Used the sal70400G on the A77 for some time. IQ was great and it is a nice AF. I had some medical problems and sold it to a man on here, can't go out like I used to.
Great lens with a tripod if you really need the 400mm. It is heavy and you don't want to use it as a walk around lens for sure. You can feel the quality.
I also used the sal70300G maybe more than the sal70400G because, it is a whole lot lighter, good IQ, and focus is even faster than the 400 and nice and silent. You hardly know it is focusing. much much better than the 75-300
Also the sal 70300G is half the price of the sal70400G
Look for MrBill on here he now has both
