    this is not a bad lens a little better then the kit lens, if your gonna spend 350$ on this you should just pay a couple more 100 to get the g lens, unless this is your budget, does a good job and focus is quick, but at max zoom its not at clear.

    It works if your a beginner and just want some zoom. Save up for better if you can wait or don't need right away.

    I was initially interested in this camera based on its compact size with the features of a larger camera. Based on reading the product reviews I decided to purchase this camera and am happy with it.

    I really like this lens. It takes great pictures and is a lot lighter and less expensive than my Sony Fe 70 200mm F4 G OSS. It really far exceeded my expectations. Great lens , I highly recommend it!

    I signed up for a photography class at our local nature center. They suggested a 55-210 mm lens. So I bought this one and fell in LOVE with it! The photos are so crisp and clear! I couldn't be happier!!

    Pictures even at the max zoom were great enough quality for me. However, I returned it because I needed a longer zoom for wildlife and kids events.

    One of the biggest things I look for when buying a camera is a great zoom. And, all around this Sony camera is great, and so is this zoom that comes along with it. Compact yet powerful. Pristinely clear.

    Can't believe the quality of my first photo of a snow covered mountain range that was taken from many miles away. Plan on more quality photos on upcoming trip.

    I am a neophyte photographer. I enjoy hiking, and bought this lens so I could take pictures when I am hiking around the mountains. It does its job beautifully - easy to attach and detach, focuses well across its entire range, and takes clear, crisp pictures.

    I bought this with the idea that it was lighter and less bulky than the traditional DSLR, however I opted to go for the weather proof Olympus, nothing wrong with this camera, I am just into extreme conditions and realized this would not do it for me.
