    The telephoto lens was good for the price, even though I would have preferred a f3.5 or better.

    Light, nimble, compact, balanced are words that come to mind. I have used the lens for nature, architectural, sports and general family pictures. The same for the movie mode. The photo quality more than meets my needs. Others are much better equipped to give the reader technical measurements and criticism than me. The lens meets my needs completely. Coupled with an A6000 I was able to take full telephoto movies and pictures of a lacrosse game at an outdoor stadium; slightly before sunset to after sunset and stadium light with full resolution and natural consistent color. The automatic settings did nothing odd with the ISO setting. The players were not blurred the ball was blurred slightly. Useful effective lens.

    The lens works fine and covers a good focal length. Only criticism is it feels "cheep".

    Great photos in well lighted indoor and sunny outdoor but slow focus in a low light scene. Not for shooting with a lot of movement using the programmed mode on sony a5100. Have not tried shooting in manual mode but may have a better result.
