    Great lens, I'm using it with a Sony a6000 body and it is very nice to have such a wide range of zoom over the kit lens. It is much bigger than the kit lens but it's versatility makes up for it. I cropped the moon in the photo but even so the quality is great.

    I am not a professional but I love taking photos. I got a new Sony a6000 for Christmas and wanted to have more options than with the lens that came with the camera. I couldn't be happier. It zooms in on your subject and makes a beautiful photo.

    Great zoom lens. Stays on my camera (NEX6) almost all the time. The other 10% I use a pancake 20mm. Lens takes sharp pictures and zoom is smooth.

    This lens is what most people will want to take on vacation if they want to pack one lens. The wide angle is more than wide enough and the zoom is longer than most. Optics are great and I use this professionally.

    Very versatile lens. Might be the only one you'll need. Unfortunately, if you're more of an expert, there is some distortion and a bothersome dropout at the corners in the 18-25 mm range. Price is a little high for the quality, but overall worth if because of the broad range of utility.

    I have a Sony A6500 and this lens is a great all around walk around lens. It has a good range with 18mm wide and 135mm zoom. For travel I find myself using either this lens or the standard 16-50mm, if I want a slimmer profile

    This is a very good lens. Recently travelled and only wanted to carry one lens so I chose this one. It worked very well. Focusing was a little slow on a few occasions; however, nothing really bad. The manual/auto focus switch was very useful. This is a versatile lens if you are shooting close in or far away shots and don’t have the opportunity to change lenses.

    Hits the Sweet Spot

    I purchased this lens as the do-all lens for hiking with my Sony Alpha a6000 mirrorless camera. It hits the sweet spot of having a wide focal length while remaining compact and lightweight. I have been very pleased with the image results. It is a great choice when I don't want to carry extra lenses and spend time changing lenses in the field.
