This lens is great for microphotography. It’s Very sharp 3.5 f to 5.6 f.
Reason not to go farther than 8 f. The 8 f to 16 f were used to lower the shutter from bold mode to make the motion blur for photography night.
Some complain that they hear a Motor noise on the mic of the camera when they watch their video footage. However, It is not a problem for the filmmaker. Because filmmakers don't use autofocus for video.

Great lens for the money. Does a great job but does feel a bit cheap however the performance is great and it’s super lite.

An easy to use and versatile lens for an almost neglible price. The autofocus can be a little finicky when trying to photograph nearby objects, but is first-rate for landscape photos. A welcome addition to my Sony A7RV camera.

I love the look even though it is more significant than I thought when I put on my Sony A5100. The photo came out great. It is a sharp and fast focus.

Not bad for a $200 lens. I use it on a crop sensor Sony a6600. Not very sharp but get decent close-ups nice blurred background when wide open. See photo below, shot at ISO 400 f/2.8 1/320. Not really a macro lens but I use it as such since I don't have anything better. I'd consider a Tamron in the future.

Paired with a Sony a6000, this lens does a fantastic job. Autofocus makes some noise but the overall image quality is great! The price is also a bargain considering the fact that this is a prime lens.

For the price you can't beat this lens for the Sony system. Lens focuses super close, not macro but extremely close. Autofocus is fast and silent, images are sharp and contrasty. It's a no-brainer!

I’m not a professional photographer. This lens gave me outstanding quality images! I’m very pleased with it after buying it because a well-known defect with my sony 16-50mm zoom stopped working. The lens worked perfectly with the camera body. I was worried it wouldn’t since it isn’t a sony lens. It is a little bigger than I had hoped but it is solid construction.

Very good for landscape photos. Focusing is a bit slower than the average lens and a bit louder to use for video shooting. Other than that, the image quality itself is very nice.
