Great Value purchase!
Quite surprised about the high quality of this Sony 18-55mm 'kit' lens for my Sony Nex7...despite a couple mediocre magazine reviews, the images from it are quite sharp corner to corner and it completes very well with my legacy manual Nikkor lenses that I usually shoot on this camera. I paid less than 1/3 the retail price for it in like-new used condition on eBay..very happy.Read full review

Trusty and good Sony lens.
This is one of Sony's 'standard' lenses, meaning that it's not a premium lens. However, that doesn't make it a bad lens, just don't expect maximum bokeh and clarity. It was (and perhaps still is) a kit lens for several of Sony's cameras in the 6000 series.
Of course, the price also reflects this, and taking the price into consideration it's good value for your money. It's a lens with solid build quality that will deliver time and time again for years.
Also note that this is not a full form factor lens, it's intended for smaller sensors like you'll find in the A6000 series cameras.Read full review

not the best but very ok for refurbished item
The lens has distortion even when zoom is not being used, image gets "rounded". Manual focus is not really manual (at least on my Sony nex-c3),every time i try to use the "focus wheek" it zooms the picuture so I have to use switch to "precise zoom" configuration in order to work as I want to. Overall image quality is ok and very acceptable for beginners or people that don't want to invest much money
It's not worth it's original price but is very worth if you buy it refurbished (which is half the price or less).Read full review

Sony 18-55 OSS e mount lens
Certainly not the best lens out there but if you shoot at F8 it does pretty good. I purchased mostly for video recording because of the OSS and zoom range. If you want maximum sharp look to the 19,30,60mm primes from Sigma.Read full review

Very nice object
Definitely happy with my purchase. The lens is in perfect shape and works great! The zoom mechanism moves fluent and with no slacks. The overall image distortion at 28 is much less then the one shown by the "standard" power zoom lens (16-50) normally sold with Sony alpha cameras. Of course, this one (18-55) is not as small and portable as the other, but I think that one must decide which is his priority: shooting good pictures or saving space in the suitcase ....

Great!
The lens is great! I was looking for a replacement since the one I had broke and this one is a perfect replacement. The 18-55 mm manual zoom works great with my style shooting and I prefer it to the power zoom I had on the other lens. Great lens, especially for the priceRead full review

Second great buy on second great Lens!!
My friends couldn’t discriminate between the Zeiss Licensed SEL24F18!!! Out of 20 shots, they got 3 right(that were obviously not 24mm(36mm equivalent) views!!
The build qualify matches the zeiss, and the sharpness(I’ve read the reviews), is plenty sharp for my needs!
The zoom and focus are BUTTER SMOOTH!!
The colors are popping, and 3D subject isolation is absolutely beautiful one to two stops down!!! Creamy OOF area too:)
Why I am purchasing a second from a fine buyer with a wonderful price! So grateful for that:) My wife will love it for years!!💘Read full review

great addition to the PXW-FS5M2
Fully functional with the PXW-FS5 II video camera. I think It translates into a 26-80 MM lens with the super 35 sensor. good for interviews and all around opening shots as well.

It was convenient
But it was my 5th lens for my a6000. I got fed up with the big camera bag syndrome so I sold it all and got a RX10 mk2. I feel the relief. I like the RX10 a lot and I'm happy with its Zeiss 35-200 lens. But I have to say if I had bought a really good zoom in the beginning I'd still be in love with the a6000.Read full review
