    • Lightweight, good range coverage, and doesn't hinder the fast AF of the Sony A6000 :)
Color: Black Style: US Version
I bought this lens to accompany my recently purchased Sony A6000 camera. Works perfectly. 55 to 210 is a range that I principally as a wildlife photographer find incredibly useful. And whilst a Sony mirrorless camera won't be replacing my full dslr for animals anytime soon, this lens works really well, and the zoom range picks up where the 16-50 kit-type lens for the A6000 stops. Very light, nice texture on the zoom ring; I purchased my lens lightly used, and it does expand and contract really easily. I don't think the weight of the lens, its elements, or the hood (which is also satisfactory) would really cause it to travel and slip out of the set range, a lock to keep the lens in at least the 55mm spot wouldn't go unappreciated - but that's likely just me and my paranoia :/ In short; good lens for the money. Not a phenomenal one; the f4.5 - 6.3 range isn't ideal, but for what you'll pay, it's very adequate. It's light enough to not be out of place on a camera as small and equally lightweight as an A6000, but not enough to feel precarious. Would greatly recommend to any hobbyist or prosumer in the market. The number of Sony lenses are still growing, but this is a good entry in the lineup, and covers the seminal 70-200 range every camera should be able to reach out to. ... show more

Ive been saving up my money for a new zoom in lense and this one works really well! The only complaint was the box that it came in had someone elses trash in it, but even with it being used it still worked for my Sony A6000! You might have to adjust your settings a little to get a better shot but this lense just made it 10 times better! ... show more

    • A must if you have a Sony E- Series camera.
Color: Black Style: US Version
Review Image by Movielighter
A steal ! Was not expecting much from this lens. Put it on my A6300 and headed to a night football game and decided to try it out. To understand how this works, you need to know that ISO, Shutter Speed and Focus are your enemies during such events. The A6300 allows a higher ISO to be used with this lens, this allows for a faster shutter (100-200 for action), focus on the a6300 is amazing and sharp! I shot fully zoomed at f6.3, with an average shutter of 100 and an ISO between 4k-6k. Even though I was near the very top of the stands, my photos were sharp and the subjects I tracked were in focus, great exposure and lots of detail. With this lens (and camera) I was able to out shoot the person on the sidelines taking photos with a Canon full frame and Tamron 70-200 f2.8 lens. ... show more

    • Bought Used, Still decent
Color: Black Style: US Version
Good bang for your buck. This isn't a prime lens but the autofocus works pretty well. The quality of the images produced is pretty nice. Just wish the aperture could open further, but overall I would recommend this for new photographers, or ones on a budget to be able to have the zoom lens from 55-210mm. ... show more

    • Excellent reach, but fuzzy
Color: Black Style: US Version
Would recommend using this lens in combination with a stabilized body or on a tripod. Even though the lens technically has OSS built in, at the far end of the telephoto ranges the shake on an a6100, even standing still, is enough to blur the image. However, the reach on it is outstanding and is perfect for sporting/spectator events in good lighting. The lens is NOT the sharpest, which is expected for a budget telephoto, so I would either not expect to have very large prints with this unless you're enhancing the image with AI. But I would recommend it for someone trying to figure out if long-distance photography is important to them, or if it only makes up a small portion of their activity. Would probably not recommend it for professional work. ... show more

I took the attached using the Sony 55-210mm/4.5-6.3 APSC lens on a Sony full frame A7 camera. The lens then becomes an 82.5-315mm lens, which is even a stronger telephoto. The lens performs well on Sony A7 full frame cameras. You get the advantage of cutting out some of the weaknesses in the corners, getting a larger telephoto equivalent, as well as getting more depth of field, making it a little easier to actually focus on the subject. The low f stop is a weakness, in lower light the lens starts to struggle a bit, which is true of many telephoto lenses. This is ok up to around sunset, when things start to get noisy. I haven't tested the new Sony 70-300mm/4.5-5.6 OSS full frame lens, which is about the same telephoto length, mainly because its about $1000US more. I suspect for most people, unless you blow your photos up to poster size, it doesn't make any practical difference. (So why buy the full frame camera then? Well because there are some full frame lenses where the price difference just isn't so steep, like the Sony 28mm/2 full frame lens for ~$450, the Sony 35mm/2.8 full frame (price varies ~$500-800), and the Sony 28-70mm full frame lens for about ~$300 within a kit. I'm just not at all sure you get much more value if you pay an extra $1000US for the Sony 70-300m full frame, than this 55-210 APSC lens. It's the same sort of argument going up from 4K to 8K on TV/video, does it make much difference anymore, or is the quality much the same for a significant difference in price???). ... show more
