Nice lens, a bit heavy. Good OSS, sharpness.
MIKE Posted 4 years ago
RAZOR SHARP lens at 350mm. Focus does wobble a little bit on my 6600, which was a shocker. And, this lens is pretty heavy. I wish it cost $800, not $1100 for this aperature, so if this lens were a fixed F4 it would be basically flawless. Sobthat could be better. Overall, it is razor sharp and has good OSS.

Excellent Telephoto Zoom Zens for portability
Excellent lens producing crisp images, fast auto focus, and super portable. I have APSC A6300 and fullframe A7riii cameras, but mostly paired it with A7riii for maximum versatility and color dynamic range in taking landscape, wildlife, and portraits. At 70mm setting, the lens acts a like full-frame lens in uncropped mode with almost no vignetting. I've also tried Sigma 100-400mm/150-600mm Canon EF lens + MC11, but those are a bit too big for portability and handling. With this lens, I don't feel like I'm missing out in terms of image quality and reach for most of the shots I want to take. Got it for Open Box (like new from Best Buy) at $728, which was a steal. Sample shots are being attached. Some sharpening in LR was done due to small birds being quite far away.

Best lens you can get for Le Mans
OlegK Posted 1 year ago
Perfect lens for the a6700; I can take pictures very far away and still have amazing quality. The only thing wrong is that it is hard to turn the lens focus from 70-350 m for quick shots

Love this lens!
John Posted 5 years ago
I picked this up as a “dad lens”, to let me get some reach on my a6500 for family vacations and sports. Wow, do I love this thing. Autofocus seems to be fairly quick reliable. It can be quite sharp. And even at f/6.3 fully zoomed, a shallow depth of field is possible with impressive bokeh. At $900 this lens is a steal.

[Employee of bestbuy] This is a great lens to pair with my a6500. Shooting these are a joy and it's very fast as well. Very good reach and easy to use. Great balance between reach and portability. I am able to fit this in my Peak Design 6L Everyday sling bag + another lens.

love the size and weight
KirkA Posted 1 year ago
fantastic apsc wildlife lens. i use it on the a6700. I do have a 200-600 as well, and i normally use that because I like the extra reach, and i don't mind the weight. BUT, if you want a light weight wildlife travel lens for the a6000 series cameras, this is it. very small and easy to handhold.

Sony 70-350mm Telephoto
RickB Posted 5 years ago
I owned the 55-210 Sony telephoto lens, but wanted more "reach", so I considered several other telephoto lenses but settle on the Sony 70-350mm G lens for the apsc sensor. There are other choices from other manufacturers as well as from Sony, but I've always had the best experience with native lenses on Sony cameras. This one is reasonably compact and relatively light yet still has significant reach (35mm equivalent is 525mm), is pretty sharp, has good manual focus capability and is reasonably priced as well. Excellent value.

Great birding lens
Luv2cruise Posted 3 years ago
First off, delivery was very prompt. This is the 1st 'G' lens i've used and the results were stunning. I recently purchased a 5 yr old a6000 that was still brand-new from a relative that really needed an all-in-one point-n-shoot. The 2 'kit' lenses were good but this 70-350mm 'G' lens is a huge step up in image quality. Like the camera, this lens is in keeping with the smaller mirrorless camera theme. Birding with this new lens is very rewarding and fun.

What an upgrade from kit lens
Floki Posted 2 years ago
Purchased this lens I was looking for something that had a bit more reach than the kit lens that came with my a6100. I am very happy with my purchase and you get what you pay for with sony lenses. Im looking to purchase the 90mm macro lens and at that point my set up will feel complete.

Perfect "Grownup" Sony G!
Muchmaligned Posted 2 years ago
This Sony G 70-350 has now replaced the kit lens (55-210) originally bought with my a6000. The photos are sharp - center and edges - and absolutely gorgeous. Manual is particularly useful for moon shots. OSS, all the features for an advanced and amateur photogs. Worth every nickel, plus a nice Best Buy membership discount!
