    I have been looking into getting this lens for a few years. I've done lots of research and it is everything I need. I spend a lot of time doing nature photography and this fits with all my criteria.

    there are lots of reviews out there for this lens on reputable sites, so i will just add my approval to what they mostly say--for what you pay this is a nice lens. Obviously it isn't super-crisp crisp Zeiss glass--whether by Zeiss itself or by Sony to Zeiss specs--but it isn't that soft and really does the job well. My purchase was an especially good deal as I bought it on Black Friday as part of a package but was then able to return the rest of the package for an adjusted refund. Thanks, local Best Buy, for making it a painless process. A great addition for my NEX-6, soon to be an a6000

    Great and easy to use for emount cameras for zooming in for long distance objects. Wish it had auto focus capability but that would raise th price. It came with the NEX 5t bundle and perfect pricing for what it worth.

    Excellent auto-focus function. Sharp image around the periphery. Mount is especially easy to use. And Best Buy matched a good internet price I found!

    The lens that is supplied with Sony Mirrorless Camera has limited zoom. This lens is great and is perfect accompaniment to the camera. Great price when bundled with camera - just $150 so can't go wrong.

    Got a good deal when I bought my Sonya 6000. Only paid $200 bucks for this lens. Glad I did. Defiantly can capture a picture from far away.

    Far Range Shoot, Clear, Good resolution

    Really good lens. Though if you’re looking to get a shot of a far range portrait, it is good since you can go up to about almost 240mm which is so far and the resolution doesn’t break. The camera i paired it with is a ZV-E10. Great combination as well. But you might wanna have a close range or wide range lens as alternative.

    It is great for getting close to your target, but it does not have a power option so you have to turn the actual lenses like a traditional SLR.

    I bought this lens for our Alpha6100 to take on a family vacation. We have two Nikon DSLRs with long lenses but ever since we bought the Sony Alpha, it's been nearly impossible to justify lugging around the bulky Nikons. The only thing missing from the Alpha was a long lense. I have been very impressed with this product and it works astonishing well with the rapid shutter speed of the Alphas. I would say this was the proverbial nail-in-the-coffin for our two DSLRs.
