    The lense is good if you want to zoom in something that is farther. I only tested it out once but haven't had the need to really work with it yet. For the price I paid in the bundle it was definiatly worth it

    Just bought the Sony camera with the Telephoto Lens. The Sony Telephoto Lens is a must because the standard lens zoom ability is very limited..

    Good lens, but it is very long (which is expected). Eventually plan to upgrade to the 12-210mm lens so I don't have to switch between two lenses.

    Note that this lens will work on a full-size sensor, like Sony A7 series, but image quality is not as good. For full-size sensor lenses, you'll have to pay more. Overall, good lens.

    This is a great zoom lens to complement the kit lens for the Sony a5100. I love using it for outdoor and landscape shots.

    This is a great starter for anyone wanting to begin shooting. Especially since Sony dropped it to 150 with the purchase of the a6000.....Awesome!

    I'm not a professional photographer by any means. I bought this lens with my Sony alpha 6000. It does its job and has a decent zoom for those just starting out. It gets the job done but nothing super incredible.

    Good lens, it is a good long distance lens, it's about the size of the camera! And a bit pricy. Overall it's a great addition for this camera.

    The lens is not very bright and it has some distortion at the widest setting. It’s easier to just use the lens that comes with the camera.
