    I wasn't planning to like it as much as I do. I love my nex3, but with this lense it gets me closer to things I want to photograph or video record. Its a must buy to really get the shots you want. You will need to keep the smaller lense with you most of the time also. You will find at times that you have to walk far away to get the shot you want with this lense.

    Long range view, cluncky handling

    I'm in no way a professional photographer and this is only my second lens for the Sony NEX-5t but I'm impressed by the long range the lens is able to capture. The handling of zooming is very manual (turning barrel so lens comes out) so it's kind of awkward holding a light camera with a very long lens, trying to capture your scene. I bought this with a bundle so it was significantly cheaper. I don't know if I'd purchase this lens full price though.

    I bought the a6000 to compare with both the Nikon D3400 and the Canon SL2. I was only slightly impressed with the 16-50 kit lens so I added this lens to compare with the Nikon 70-300 and the Canon 75-300 zoom lenses. And, although it’s only 210, it compares quite favorably with the other 2 lenses at the same focal length. I’ve taken many “keeper” pictures and expect to continue to get many more.

    Have wanted this lens for my Sony nex for a long time. Finally broke down and bought a new camera and Best Buy had a deal where i got $100 of the lens if i bought it at the same time so went ahead and took the plunge. Haven't had a lot of opportunity to use it much but with what i have used it for im very satisfied. Will add to my review once i get to take it out for a longer test drive!

    Small and lightweight, but quality tradeoffs

    The lens is nice and small and lightweight -- perfect for the A6000 or A6300 (what I use). But the lens is soft in the corners and edges, so it's not the best choice if you are shooting subjects where you want everything in tack-sharp focus (landscapes, travel, etc.). When the focus is just a single subject in the frame (person, dog), it does really well and is nice and sharp.
