Good budget lens
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good for the price. Theres better out there but this will work for someone on a budget. Also works as an everyday lens if you dont want to drop a ton of money on an expensive lens that may get damaged. Focus breathing is less than ideal for video.

Excellent starter lens
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best starter lens you can buy for your 6000+ series Sony shooter, a bit of a learning curve and the main drawback is there is no zoom (obviously), but amazing performance, even in low light conditions

Nice budget lens for portrait
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife and I both shoot the occasional portraits for family and friends. Nice sharp lens and nice out of focus areas when you want that soft bokeh background. I use it mainly for nature photography. All in all a great lens for the price.

Fair performance for price
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The optics are sharp and the auto-focus surprisingly decent for an older lens, however the chromatic aberration was a bit of a nuisance for me and the loud focusing motors are a no go for video shooters(if you are mainly a stills shooter, you can live with it). Still, it’s optical performance is surprisingly well considering the age and price of the lens.
