    Great introductory lens for the money! It's light enough to not be out of place on a camera as small and equally lightweight as an A6000, but not enough to feel precarious. Takes spectacular photos at maximum zoom!

    I rarely used it because I forgot to bring it because it is big and heavy. And, when I used this lens, the photos is not as good as the 16-50 mm lens. I am not sure whether it is my fault or lens' fault. I do not know whether I would recommend this to a friend, but I have to choose one. I wish there is choice called n/a.

    This lense came in a bundle with my Sony A6000. This takes incredible close up photos or scenic photos. Definitely recommend in the starter package of your Sony a6000. Easy to use and swap out when needed between lenses

    The 6000 is not the latest model, and may not have all the bells and whistles of the 7000, but at 24 megapixels, this is quite an excellent camera. Got my selected package with lens price-matched from Amazon, and was able to walk out the door of the store with my new camera that day. A perfect buying experience.

    I really like this lens, first because of the price, I got it on a deal for $100 when I bought my camera. It is light and very portable, great for travel. The lens is sharp, focus extremely fast, and overall quality is nice.
