  • Absolutely a great all in one lens 🔥 Totally worth it
Style: Lens Only
This is absolutely one of the best lenses you can get for in APS C camera. It's basically equivalent to 28-75mm in full frame. With the constant aperture of F/2.8. So it allows a good amount of light in and is great because of the constant aperture, compared to variable ones. The build quality is very nice. It seems pretty well built. Although this is their contemporary series, it still feels premium. One of the best things is the light weight and small size compared to the full frame lenses I used to use. It makes it much more light to carry around, and makes me want to go out and shoot more. Very sharp, with nice Bokeh. Overall, I would give this lens an 8.5/10 or more; probably a solid 9. ... show more

  • 100% worth the purchase
Style: Lens Only
this lens is superior. I do food videography, but this lens is amazing for shooting people or anything really this is a versatile lens and was 100% worth the price. The look isn’t too bulky so the size is perfect, sharpness is great. Would recommend to anyone trying to get into videography or photography. ... show more

  • Crisp compact zoom lens with ideal range
Style: Lens Only
Excellent lens always on a Sony A6600 kept under my driver seat. Small size. Nice 27-75 mm on an APS-C camera. Very crisp.

  • Sharp & shallow when needed
Style: Lens Only
This has become my primary walking around lens on an a6700. The pictures are sharp, even in low light. The f stop stays where it's set across all focal lengths, just as advertised. 2.8 is enough to get a nice, shallow depth of field when you want it. The focus motor is extremely quiet and is not heard on any videos I've taken. Overall, a superb lens and good value compared to the Sony equivalent. ... show more

  • Best value lens in my kit
Style: Lens Only
I'm a photographer that shoot most of my stuff while hiking and travelling. Size, Performance and versatility are my three biggest factors. Usually, I have to compromise pretty heavily between them. Last year I hiked in Zion for a week with the Sony 16F2.8, Which was amazing for keeping the weight down on long high-mileage days, and virtually disappeared on the camera. This was in exchange for meh results and a lot of lens flare and aberration. This year I decided to suck up the size, and took a Sigma 16F1.4. The weight was reasonable, and the pictures were amazing, but the lens itself was a chonk and it was frequently in the way. Both of these lenses also lacked versatility, resulting in a lot of shots where I shot wide and sucked it up for a heavy crop in post. Enter the Sigma 18-50f2.8. Pictures are sharp as a tack, check. Common 55mm Filter size, check. Small package, check. Reasonable weight, functional zoom range, decently wide aperture etc. It frankly does it all, and does it without being fat, heavy, obtrusive or expensive. Is it my favorite lens? No. It's frankly, just a little boring. It doesn't have a niche. It is however ASTOUNDINGLY capable. It's great to watch a player who shoots from half court, has handles like a Globetrotter or will dunk over 3 defenders, but this lens is the guy on the team who is a solid 9/10 in every fundamental and plays everything textbook. It's not a "fun" lens, but it will absolutely get the job done capably in every situation, in a smaller package and half the price of it's competitors. The minor gripes: The focus/zoom rings are annoying. They're flush with the barrel and I frequently have trouble finding the right one by instinct. They're smooth, but not intuitive to find. The lens hood when stowed also gets in the way of the rings. There is also no image stabilization. As a photographer, this doesn't bother me a bit. If you're a videographer, this will probably be a big problem if you don't have in-body image stabilization or a gimbal. ... show more

  • Great lens, a bit on the softer side
Style: Lens Only
The lens feels very high quality, the autofocus just works. It's a 2.8 lens, so it'll be pretty fast if you use it at 2.8. Nice compact apsc lens. I would give it five stars, however, I find that the lens is a bit too soft for my preference, not a total dealbreaker. It has its purpose, but for a general lens, I prefer the Tamron 17-70, but that lens is a bit more expensive than this one. ... show more

  • Great walk around lens
Style: Lens Only
Bought this as a good zoom walk around lens for street photography and portrait photography. Love the size of this thing and the f/2.8 aperture. Seems to give me pretty clean results even wide open. There is no image stabilization, so I have to watch my shutter speed on my non-IBIS camera bodies. I have used this on both my A6400 and A7Cii with great results. The main reason I went those two camera bodies is the size of them and how easy it is to pack them for travel and this lens compliments them well. I have the 24-70mm, 18-50mm and 30mm as well as these two bodies and it takes up less space than my old DSLR setup with two lenses. For photographers, this is a great, light weight, affordable lens to have in your kit. The pic shows the size compared to an A7Cii with Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 ... show more

  • My new favorite lens!
Style: Lens Only
As an owner of both the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 and 56mm f/1.4, I got this zoom lens with the intention of using it for travel photography, mostly due to the small size and great quality; but I can now say that it will pretty much be my default lens for most situations. It’s a great upgrade for anyone using the default sony kit lens, with the only caveat being the lack of stabilization. And while not necessarily an upgrade compared to my other sigma lenses in terms of image quality, it definitely is when it comes to practicality. At a constant f/2.8 aperture, the amount of light this little lens can capture is amazing. This will be the lens I keep attached to my camera by default. I still love my f/1.4’s, but unless I am on a low light situation or aiming for the most bokeh I can get, I rather use this amazing lens to gain the flexibility of the 18-50mm focal lengths without having to swap primes all the time. ... show more
