"After so many choices and reading several reviews, I finally made the decision to buy this lens. I am glad B&H has this on sale[...] I tested this lens from 16 to 105mm range and I was very satisfied with its overall performance - the zoom range, color, sharpness, close and quick focus.I just wish that this is full frame and a constant f4. At 16mm f 3.5, it vignetts but it can easily be solve by using f8 aperture."
"I've been using this lens to photograph mainly butterflies and I'm very pleased with the quality and sharpness of the photos with the use of this lens."
"This lens is great for the Sony alpha camera. It gives you the versatility of getting up close to your subject, with the additional 200 zoom for gaining access to far away subjects."
