    A little bit expensive

    We used it many times. It does excellent job when it comes to zooming an image but it is more expensive than the camera itself..

    Quality made lens

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The lens was purchased with the NEX-5T as a bundle. It was considerably less to buy it this way than to purchase it by itself. So I got it and don't regret it. I'm hoping to keep adding more e-lenses to my camera in the future.

    Great Lens

    This is the first time I ever bought a lens to go with a camera and I think it was well worth it. We knew that we would be taking some distance action shots and they came out fantastic.

    A bit soft at full tele on my A6000

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Bought this to use with my A6000. A bit disappointed in that the sharpness doesn't hold up at the full tele end of the lens, especially with a 24 megapixel camera. Probably ok for the lower res sensor cameras, but if you intend to crop and blow up your pics on an A6000, you may be disappointed with this one.

    Great compact lens (especially compare with my pro lens). Sharp enough for the price. I would prefer electric zoom for video.

    Utter junk - point and shoots lens are 5x sharper

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Beyond disappointing. Not sharp at all. Images are fuzzy when you look in close for detail. Without pin-sharp images what's the point in photography?

    Zoom ring is too stiff to be useful

    I bought this to go with my NEX camera. The zoom ring was way too stiff to make it a useful lens, particuarly if your shooting sports.
