An excellent companion to the Sony A6000 for a photographer who takes a lot of macro shots as well as short range zoom shots. Excellent Zeiss glass!

I got this lens a month ago and took it for a trip to Spain along with my nex 6. The sharpness and colors I got from this lens were unbelievable. I have the 18-200 e mount and I have used it for two years, while I love the reach of that lens the IQ of this lens blows away the 18-200 by miles. Unfortunately I cannot afford both lenses so am going to sell the 18-200 and just keep the 16-70. I rather have very sharp pictures and compromise on zoom. The 16-70 was adequate for 90% of my Spain trip pics and with the constant f4 I was able to crop many pictures where the bigger zoom would have helped.

I truly love this lens, takes crisp photos. Constant f4 aperture is great. Fast and smooth focusing, completely quiet. Build quality is very good, smooth zoom and focusing rings. This lens is on my a6000 90% of the time. I would wait for the occasional sale, I picked this up for $799 on sale, great deal for this lens. This is a great piece in such a small package, very well balanced on any sony mirror less system.

I used this lens on Sony A6500. The 16-70 zoom range is perfect with constant F4. It produces good image. Of course, if I need better picture, I will use prime lens instead.

Excellent camera lens takes really great pictures the images comes out very clear and pretty
