Allows me to move quickly and smoothly from wide angle to close up when doing landscapes, cityscapes and portraits. This is my second one as the original got damaged after years of travel and use in all sorts of weather and conditions. It makes for a compact camera-lens package.

I like this lens a lot. I am a bit of a wide angel junky and this does the trick for everyday work. I use it a lot, but when I am shooting 'for real' I use my fixed lenses. It wobbles a bit, and the first one I had needed to be sent back to be tightened up, but worked like a champ until it was knocked accidentally when fully etended against a rock. Totally my fault. But use it enough to replace it for sure!
I love it! Good I like

I'll start with the bad part of the story, but there is a happy ending. I bought this lens in a kit with the a5100 camera, and when editing my pictures i realized that the left side was always severely out of foucus. I found out that on a subject 1.5 meter away from me, i needed to set the focus at infinity for focusing the left side and at 1 m for focusing the right side. I got back to the shop and they let me try if the problem was fixed by using the sample on the exposition shelf, and yes, it was. then they gave me brand new kit from their stock, and just to be sure I tested also that, directly into the shop. Also that copy had some misaligned optic elements, this time in the up-down direction. They gave me the kit on the exposition shelf then, and I was happy. It's not super-perfectly centered but i don't care, it's definitely good enough. Actually, I love it. Image quality is always definitely good enough if the lens is used correctly (especially from 19mm focal length on), and the compact size, the very effective stabilization and the extremely light weight make this lens a magic tool. I hope that it will turn up to be durable too, because I want to spend a long time using it!

This little compact lens is totally amazing. It is so compact and makes it easy for me to take it everywhere on my A-6000 camera, strapped to my belt. The images are tack sharp and the range is great.
Service was exceptional with B&H as usual and I will never buy another camera or lens anywhere else.How can one company like B&H be so consistantly the best out there? I know that they work hard at being the best and that is exceptional.
Great lens

I had one of these with my Sony a6000 and after a year needed a little looking at and was fine, but then I hit it when fully extended, which I know is not much, but buggered it up. I have had the lens for five years and it had more life left in it if I wasn't such a clutz. My wife asked why I bought another one. This one to replace it - I have other lenses. But I use this lens A LOT! I love it.
