    excellent lens for any amateur photographer, but i will say it’s not the best if you plan on doing something like sports photography at night.

    After reading lots of reviews, I decided on the a6000 package that include the additional lens and carrying case. This seemed to be the best value. There are lots of features and modes that take a while to get used to for beginners. But that is half of the fun with this camera and seeing the amazing pictures you can capture.

    Entry level telephoto

    I am used to shooting a Canon 50D with a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. This lens is more like a telephoto kit lens, similar to the Canon starter lenses. It gives more reach for long photos, and better compression to shoot portraits at 200mm. It doesn't have the speed of high end lenses for shooting sports. I would also note that the f/stops of this lens doesn't lend itself to low light photography. A decent lens for the price, but don't expect the stars on a flashlight budget.

    Best Buy had a sale on that gave me $150 off this lens when I purchased my alpha 5000. Love the lens, use it all the time for sports, swim lessons and anything outdoors. Get sharp images, fast focus and it just feels solid and well built, not toy like. And it fits in a small camera bag (think hip pack) for easy portability.
