Good multi-purpose zoom lens I bought a Sony alpha 37 camera that came without the kit lens. This kit lens has the zoom ratio I needed for the type of photography I do: landscapes, urban views, and occasional portrait photography. It's light weight and a size that's easy to handle.
Great all around lens This is my third one . I am hard on equipment . Work great . Great all around lenses . They last around 2-3 years with me . I also take a lot of photos .
good but not great lens good but not great lens
