Customer Ratings & Reviews

The aperture is perfect for outdoors, its a little rough around night time. The bokeh is wonderful around the focus areas. The auto-focus is pretty quick. All in one lens for most occasions. I hope you will enjoy this lens as much as I do.

So I wanted a camera that could cover all the bases. With this lens, it can. This lens is clear, clean and sensitive enough to allow me to get the wude shots and the tights without having to change lenses

Great lens for a wide range of photography ...bought it for my new Sony A6300 ...found it Open Box for great price...

Great quality lens- I was recommended this lens by a knowledgable employee over the kit lens that came with my camera. I have enjoyed this lens

I really wanted to like this lens - I really did. I purchased it "Open Box - Excellent", and the savings was substantial. The two previous "Open Box" Sony E-mount lenses I've bought from BB arrived in amazing, like-new condition - this one, not so much. The OEM Sony box was quite beat-up, and I was fearful about the lens' condition; thankfully, the lens itself was in "Very Good", but not "Excellent" condition. I say that because the lens hood was missing from the package. Normally, I would've chalked it up to a bit of lax QC and purchased the appropriate Sony hood from an online source like eBay; in this case, however, that wasn't doable. This particular Sony lens hood retails for around a hundred bucks, and even used ones sell for sixty-five to seventy-five bucks. Yikes! Aside from that, the image quality was pretty good, I must say. Sharpness was about what I expected, soft at both extreme ends, but manageable by stopping down and additional tweaking in post. The other major downer for me was the weight. My understanding is the larger SEL18200 is even heavier, but this one still weighed down my NEX-7 to the point that I feared I wouldn't want to lug it around on our cruise next summer, which is why I purchased this lens in the first place. In the end, I think the combination of the missing hood and the weight made me decide to return this lens, but I believe that the SEL18200LE would be a good fit for the right person and the right application.

This lens is great for the amateur photographer that wants clear sharp pictures. The zoom gets me close enough and auto adjust is fast so I don't miss the shot!

Lens allows you to take wide angle and long range pics without changing lens. It ads weight to the otherwise lightweight camera but is is worth the convenience.

I'm very satisfied with my purchase. Great lense!!

I love how its a wide angle at 18mm, and has a great zoom, I can travel with this and not have to change multiple lenses. has the nice lock on the lens to keep it from sliding out.

Love how the zoom works although you have to get used to handling it.

Excellent lens definitely worth the money great value.

Compact, good autofocus. Could be the only lense you need to carry

This lens provides a wide range of focus, eliminating the need to change lens when doing moving scenery

Great for taking all kinds of photography with great zoom options

I love this lenses because I can zoom in as well as vlog with it.

This is an excellent lens to round out my Sony mirrorless collection. Fairly expensive, but worth the price. Sony nailed it.

This is a great lens if you want to capture the best outdoor shot at a distance. I would highly recommend this lens to anyone that is going to buy a Sony Mirrorless camera.

This lens was a lot harder to get than i thought it would be. This website was the best option and was great!

Returned due to an unexpected personal situation....

This was the lens I wanted and Best Buy offered it at an amazing price.
