Pros: Sharp,small and light ,good colors,cheap,

Cons: I don't know.. with what it costs

Opinion: Bought with kit and without too many expectations, I found myself appreciating it for its optical characteristics and lightness. With today's cameras many defects are corrected directly in the camera, so the final product already comes out good. It's a bit dark, but with the IBIS of the r7 you gain the beauty of 7 stops! It was certainly not born for sports photography or for ceremonies where generous openings are needed, but for the street (thanks to the fact that it is inconspicuous) and undemanding reportage, if there are no great needs, it is more than fine. I have been photographing as an enthusiast for years and I think that if I had had it 30 years ago I would have cried out for a miracle. In the range of features for which it was designed I find it very advisable

Pros: Lightweight, compact, good to start

Cons: Bad construction, closed aperture, macro in manual focus unusable

Opinion: Zoom kit a bit anachronistic compared to competitors in 2023. The construction is really bad, not for the materials themselves, but for the movements and sensations it returns. Snappy bezel, unlock really cheap. The minimum diaphragm of 4.5 is really a pig, at least the classic 3.5 was there. In manual focus it can go further with the macro capability, but the image quality goes to be blessed, which makes me wonder what the hell they put to do this option. On the other hand it is light and compact and as a lens to start or emergency is fine, but it does not do more than that.

Pros: Sharp, lightweight, compact, fast AF, stabilized and economical

Cons: Quite plastic construction, not very bright

Opinion: With a new APS-C series you can not miss the entry-level zoom, and like all lenses of the genre has a fairly 'cheap' construction. However, we must not underestimate, nor denigrate by party taken, this perspective. In 130 grams and 4cm you have a lens equivalent to the classic 28-70mm; the AF is fast and quiet, and there is also stabilization: what more do you want? :-) The diaphragm is not very bright, but more than enough for general use, and indeed in different areas it will often happen to close further. But the image quality? It is very good, the lens is sharp at all focal lengths, even at the most open apertures. If you want maximum lightness, perhaps in combination with the R10, I think it is a great choice.
