Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars by 22 users at B&H Photo Video

"It is very sharp, good contrast and color and heavy enough so you know there is a lens attached (this is good.)"

"This lens is amazing...sharp even wide open, light weight, and fast to focus on an A900."

"It does sometimes have to hunt to focus in low light, and the build is not as solid as pro lenses"
