    Very nice inexpensive lens for my Sony a6000

    I recently purchased a Sony a6000, which I have fallen in love with, and wanted a longer zoom lens. Didn't want to spring for the very expensive 70-200 right now, so opted for this. Not as sharp as I would like, and I expected that it would not be the fastest lens, but I must say that I am pleasantly surprised by it. I believe it would be quite adequate for most people's needs.

    This lens was a very inexpensive way for me to add zoom capabilities to my Sony NEX – FS 100. I like to use e-mount lenses that don't require an adapter and this did the trick. I was able to successfully shoot high quality footage at a high school football game from the booth with this lens. It also provided nice depth of field for shots that I took at field level before the game.

    Nice addition to Sony Alpha cameras for amateur photographers. Bought as a bundle with a5000 camera during Xmas sales. Best for portraits with blurred background, and for bird shots with telephoto and image stabilization.

    I nice lens if you want to compliment your kit lens. Only bought it because if I bought it with the camera and the kit lens there was a nice discount. It does it's job. Would have liked to see a lock feature on it. But the lens is solid and feels good. Feels a little heavy when you mount in on my Sony Alpha 5100. If you can get it at a discount price. Totally worth it.

    This isn't the best telephoto lens you can buy for Sony E-mont cameras,but it comes pretty close. Color is good and low-light is so-so, but unless you want to spend upwards of $800, thgis comes close enough for someone who doesn't hqave deep pockets.

    Great zoom lens for sports action

    I use this for my children's soccer games. It's gets me closer to the action with some trade-offs. When fully zoomed, shots are often noisy unless on a very bright day. I'm still learning how to use the a6000 and this lens to get the very best shot possible. All in all, it's a lens that help you capture those priceless moments. For me, those are sports-related.

    I've used this lens with a Sony A6000 and it works great. It's pretty big but not too big for such a great zoom. It also has optical image stabilization which is nice. Definitely a good second lens to carry with you in addition to the stock lens that came with your camera.

    This is a must have accessory for any camera enthusiasts. If you like to take pics and want that wide scenic view, this lens s perfect for that. Taking high-quality pics of oceans, country-sides, partys and get-togethers is remarkably easy with this lens.

    I recently switched back from a point and shoot and couldn't be any happier with this lens. The fact that I now have a great camera and a clear telephoto lens is a win win! This lens has a tremendous range and will wind up being my primary lens on the camera.

    This an outstanding lens. I use this mainly for nature and airshow pictures. When zooming in, the lens and camera (Sony NEX-5) works beautifully for great shots. My only complaint, for the price of the lens, give me a lens tube to protect it when not on the camera body.

    A good quality telephoto lense for my Sony A6000 camera that I use occasionally. If you are a professional, you probably want a better lense, but for the rest of us, this will get you a quality picture.

    I've used the lens a few times and I like it. It's nothing special but it does a decent job for far away objects. I use it for basic further away objects and its done well. I've read about better lenses for the more serious photographer. I bought a packaged deal and this lens was included at $150 less than buying the lens by itself.
