worth it
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Been wanting this lens for 6 years and finally broke down and bought it - very worth it... just have to get used to it especially when taking up close pictures it looks "zoomed in" so need to get comfortable with it but overall it takes great pictures!

Awesome zoom
||Posted .Owned for 1 week when reviewed.Bought this lens to go with my Sony alpha a7 mirrorless camera. I am very pleased with the quality of pictures it can take when it comes to zooming in. Extremely clear, so editing doesn’t take as long. Very very happy with this purchase for sure. Attached is one of the pictures I took with this awesome lens.

Great Lense
||Posted .Part of my kit lense was this. This particular lense made me realize that I do have to take a step back (or a few). Photos come out crisp and sharp.

Great lens
||Posted .Bought this to add some range to my a6300, typically shoot with with a 28/1.8. After reading all the reviews there was little to no other option. There are maybe three zoom lenses for the e-mount system. So few options that this is actually the kit lens when you buy the zoom lens camera body. Don't let the fact that this is really your only option turn you off, this is a very good lens. Zooms way in and takes really good crisp pictures even zoomed all the way in and hand held...if you have the right settings on your camera.

Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 is one super nice lens
||Posted .The Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS is one of a familiar breed of lenses: an entry-level telephoto zoom lens designed to be paired with the standard 18-55mm kit zoom. On the plus side, this lens has enough reach for sports and wildlife photography, and includes helpful optical image stabilization (that's the OSS) that can help prevent blur from hand-shake at longer focal lengths.

Q: QuestionWill this lense be good for indoor volleyball?I'm thinking of pairing this lens with an a6000. Will I be able to stop the action and reduce blurs at the a6000s 11 fps rate? Is the f rating good enough to stop the ball in mid-air with no blurring?
Asked by Co_Dad.
- A:Answer Hi Co_Dad, Yes. This lens will be able to zoom on your subject very well which is good for sports. Since the amount of light will be limited on indoor sports, to avoid blurry picture you just need to set the ISO to a higher value to compensate with a faster shutter speed. -Anthony

Q: QuestionHi What is this lens good for? ( Sony 55-210)
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer I personally use it for distance sports shots for basketball and baseball. Switch back to 16-50 for casual everyday photos that don't require the zoom.
