A:AnswerHi BruceF, Yes. A lens hood helps block unwanted light when taking pictures where the camera is pointing towards a strong source of light. It is recommended to use a compatible Sony lens hood for this lens: http://support.d-imaging.sony.co.jp/www/cscs/accessories/compatibility.php?area=gb&lang=en&mdl=SEL55210&cat=53

A:AnswerThis lens is designed for a smaller sensor size than the A7. If you want full benefit of a full size sensor, you'll need to get an SEL24240 or SEL70200G.
A:AnswerThis is an e-mount lens and since your A7 Sii is also an e-mount body the lens will fit and mount to the camera. The images from this lens will be recorded in the crop mode on your full-frame camera. You can choose to turn that auto-cropping off and your full frame image will exhibit vignetting that you can handle in post (if you shoot RAW.) An APS-C lens on a full frame camera will only give good coverage on the smaller size area of the full frame sensor. Image sizes for full frame are 36 x 24 mm vs 22.2 x 14.8 mm for APS-C.
A:AnswerGood affordable telephoto zoom lens for landscapes, not for wildlife or sports. Also compact and light compared to constant-aperature telephotos.
A:AnswerYou probably have already gotten an answer to this question but I will answer for the others that may have the same query. Since the A7 R is an-mount body the e-mount lens will fit and mount to the camera. Since the lens is APS-C the images on the full frame camera (like your A7 R) will be recorded in crop mode. You may be able to turn-off the auto crop on your camera and record the full frame image which will exhibit vignetting due to the smaller coverage size of the APS-C.
A:AnswerHi Lauren, Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. The lens is compatible but please note : Fast Hybrid AF is available with the lens system software Ver.02 or later. Thank you so much for your question. And thank you for choosing Sony.
