Pros:
|
Built well for the price. Sharp and very nice OSS.
|
|
Cons:
|
Not F4 ;) not much for this loooow price
|
|
For 199 it's a steal. Comes with excellent hood. The OSS works flawless. IQ is very good on the NEX6. Would very much like F4 version for 3x this price

Pros:
|
Metal adds durability, IQ is strong throughout. OSS is very effective, Price is VG, light
|
|
Cons:
|
No focus marks, rather long for NEX cameras
|
|
Lens is an excellent 'add' to the original kit lens. Outperforms other zooms in this price range (much more expensive zooms are better for 2x price). Light and durable

long, not very sharp, CA, silver

I tested against my Tamron 18-200 mm NEX - which was sharper at 200 mm, had better AF and feels much more solid.

Pros:
|
Light, well built, good image quality
|
|
Cons:
|
Can Sony at least put some marking for focus
|
|
Reasonable price, much smaller and ligher then 18-200. image quality is on par with some prime lens. Well built too, much better the some Sony A-mount DT lens.

Pros:
|
Sharp, light weight,small,excellent mechanical quality and super stabiliation
|
|
Cons:
|
Slow aperture, still looks big on a NEX body
|
|
I bought this for detail architectural shots and keeping distance from my subjects.
Very sharp in the middle less in the corners but still very good.
Color and contrast is about as good as on the 50 1.8 OSS which is great.
Mechanical it has a real high end feel while keeping the weight low.
It is a telezoom and therefore relatively LONG especially on a NEX body. It does keep it`s balance well on a NEX 7.
The OSS of this lens is as good as it gets and comparible to expensive IS lenses from canon.
Note that this lens costs less as a whole than the IS upgrade on most canon lenses, about halve actually. That makes it a steal.
It has a slow aperture starting at 4.5 and going to 6.3 at the long end. It doesn`t give you much bokeh to look at.
The bokeh is nothing special but not bad.
It`s a very good lens at an incredible price. Buy it!

All of the shots were sharp and the lens is light and easy to use. I prefer this lens to the 18-200mm SEL
