Customer Ratings & Reviews

As always I have found the accessories for Sony cameras to be first rate. One of my preferences is the stabilization is contained within the body giving the user more flexibility when choosing lenses. A word of caution, Sony uses (2) mounting styles, make sure you select the correct one.

You get what you pay but I am able capture some sharp pictures

i enjoy this product it will come in handy later!!

This is a great addition to your Sony camera. It helps take pictures from distance. The only thing is it's not easy to switch them out or take off and put it on. I guess all attachments are that way. If you are practicing your photography, this is a good starter.

Lense is good overall, works well in the lower lighting. The

Great for taking night portrait. Gives really good sharpness

I am new to using this type of camera and thought the lens would really bring objects closer and "zoom" in better than the standard lens that's built /comes with the camera but didn't find this to be the case. I returned the lens to them. (Sorry, I wanted it to work better)

Good image quality, but it feels cheap with the plastic

One of the sharpest Sony lenses and an incredible price! Only downsides could be having an all plastic build (although the bayonet is metal), and having a focus motor that can be a bit slower than most Sony lenses. The bokeh is stunning with its 7 blades and the sharpness of a prime is unmatched at this price point.

10/10 sacrificed. Work very good with my nex 6 sony.

I was worried when I got the Sony a7s ii that i would need to buy adaptors to use my other nikon lenses. I picked this lens up when I got it and i seriously use it all the time. Super fast 1.8 and the auto focus and image stabilization really work well. A+

This lens is great for photography! I like to use this lens as a portrait lens. So shoulder length and up. If far away from person can also manage to get full body but I wouldn't recommend it. Great for close ups and portraits though!

The lens was in great condition and came with all original accessories and packaging. FYI, I had to pay $30 restocking fee for returning an open box item. I had gotten the same product elsewhere for cheaper so I needed to return this.

The lens was open box, has two blemishes on the front lens coating but does not seem to affect picture quality. The lense is fast in autofocus and is exactly what it should be. I recommend this lens and find the prime lens a joy to use.

Amazing!!! Love having a fixed lens where all you need is to focus on your object. It’s a game changer for anyone who’s a professional or wanting to become a professional photographer.

Super noisy and super slow! If you are on a budget, it's good enough. Best thing I can say about it really.

It’s not what I expected, it’s not fast enough to shoot a portrait or a wedding, and those not focus fast enough to video

If you're looking to getting nice lens on a budget I would highly recommend this lens. There is an updated one that's more electronic which makes a louder noise but also focuses faster, but that's not why I bought this lens that works perfect for what I need it for.

This has to be one of the most underrated lenses in the Sony Lens lineup. I would definitely recommend it to anyone that’s starting out or just needs that focal length to complete their lens collection.

Decent lense...but beware this lense is an FE lense. If you shoot on an a series (a6300) mirrorless, take into account the crop factor. Plus this doesn't have optical stabilization. I returned for the e mount version for Mirrorless cam. It was $100 more but also has optical stabilization. Glad I did.
