Just “OK”
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking to upgrade from my kit lens but not break the bank. So I bought this lens, not a huge upgrade but for the price I guess I can’t complain. This lens would be better priced at $150
No, I would not recommend this to a friendChose this lens for its convenient size.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I took my camera on a cruise and actually did not use the wide angle lens much. The 18 to 55 mm lens gave me more versatility and worth the extra weight . I look forward to using the new lens for local indoor use.
I would recommend this to a friendGood
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good little lens for the price. Would recommend as a kit lens
I would recommend this to a friendNot for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned this lense right away because it was not what I was looking for. I wanted to make my camera more portable but this lense doesn't have any type of summing at all.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot noticeably better than the kit lens
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I couldn't discern the difference between the image quality of this lens and the one that comes with the A5000 (16mm-55mm F3.5).
No, I would not recommend this to a friendDecent wide angle lens
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the most part the lens is pretty good. Edges are a bit blurry, but the size is what makes it great
I would recommend this to a friendSony - 16mm f/2.8 E-Mount Wide-Angle Lens - Silver
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Over all, this lens is not very sharp but it will serve as a general outdoor lens.
I would recommend this to a friendIt's a decent lense
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got it just for recreational shooting. It works for my purpose.
I would recommend this to a friendgood quality, but not worth the price tag
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picked up one of these expected wider angle shots. It did no such thing. The specs were barely different from the stock kit lens and offered no difference in imagery whatsoever.
