    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.

    I bought this lens to go with my Sony NEX-3N. Great for landscapes and wildlife. I used it this past weekend on a trip to Mesa Verde and was able to get some wonderful pics that would've been blurry with the 18/55 lens. One great thing about this lens is that it's compatible with the NEX and Alpha lines...you can also use with the E-Mount's but need an attachment. Great for people who may consider upgrading from the NEX to Alpha line in the future!

    I was having a tough time deciding what lens to buy because in my inventory of lenses the only I owned was the kit lens my Sony Alpha 6k came with. I was offered the zoom lens with a package that would save me money but I didn't take the offer and regretted it right away. So finally i got my hands on this lens and I enjoy it more than my kit lens. Quality is nice and versatile. Definitely my favorite lens currently!!

    This lens is perfect if you’re just starting and would like to have a decent one to get photos from far away. Make sure it isn’t your only one, it is decent for sports events, but if you’re trying to capture portraits, spend a little more and buy a specific one.

    I bought it because I have a 3 yr old and nephew and a niece who are 2 and 6 that are on the go. I can just get the one person I want in the shot without having to crop later. Also I use it at the zoo to get up close shots of the animals and not have all the extra background I dont need or want. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has children.

    This is my first zoom lens. I love the camera so much I decided to purchase this lens. At first I was afraid I would have problems changing from one lens to another but, to my surprise it's as easy as pie. The price was right also. I've heard of people paying way more for similar lens to use with their professional cameras. I get the same results if not better and I paid less. I love it when I get a good deal and I am very very happy
