    Long range view, cluncky handling

    I'm in no way a professional photographer and this is only my second lens for the Sony NEX-5t but I'm impressed by the long range the lens is able to capture. The handling of zooming is very manual (turning barrel so lens comes out) so it's kind of awkward holding a light camera with a very long lens, trying to capture your scene. I bought this with a bundle so it was significantly cheaper. I don't know if I'd purchase this lens full price though.

    This is my first lens to my camera kit as a sports photographer. It has a great range and diverse for use of photo/video. The OSS is great for shooting video outdoors.

    This has been a great starter camera addition. It has allowed for close up pictures with excellent quality even when enlarging. The shade helps with sun splotching so every picture is great.

    I like the lens and it works fine..but I mistakenly assumed it had an electronic zoom feature...which it doesn't. So you need to zoom it manually. Still works good though.

    Purchased this lens recently, unsure how it would perform being a kit lens. I am definateley surprised, fast and accurate. I took it for a spin and a youth sporting event with my Sony a6000, and WOW. The one thing I have an issue with when I purchased this camera was the limited lens selection, not a big variety when it comes to the e-mount series. I made the decision to get this zoom and thus far I am very happy, a great value especially for the price.

    It makes far away objects appear as if they are right in front of your face. High quality pictures at long distances.

    Was a little hesitant about this lens. Read other reviews both good and bad. My take is that its a very good lens for the price. Works well with my A6000. Takes a little while to get use to it, but once you get the hang of it its performs well. Good color and sharpness. Got mine as an open box. Would buy again if I had to. Highly recommend for telephoto use.
