Pros: Extremely underestimated optics

Cons: No hood

Opinion: Optics that left me stunned. I got it in kit with the sony A7C. A perfect match. Being a "kit" lens, everyone assumes that it is a bottle bottom or that you have to resell it immediately as usual. What nonsense. The files it churns out are great. I'm finding this lens superb! I come from a Sony A6600 + 16-55 f2.8 (one of the best for aps-c that stands up to gm optics), well, this kit lens I found it at par if not higher than the 16-55 f2.8! Excellent sharpness, good bokeh, quiet, very light, excellent af. Also let's talk about the weight, it weighs only 167g against the 494g of the 16-55 f2.8, not bad eh? My dealer had warned me saying... that it was a beautiful optics and not to resell it that then I would regret it (as many others have done regretting it). He was right. I recommend this view. As cons I only say that I did not find the hood, it has a focal range a little short and is a dark hair but it is relative.

Pros: Great resolution at all focal lengths, lightness and excellent value for money

Cons: Need some small correction in PP but starting the files are very good. Sure... if it had been F4 at all focal lengths it would have been better

Opinion: I have been using it for a few months and I take it with me for motorcycle rides and when I don't want to carry a lot of weight. We must overcome the perplexity that it is a kit optics (therefore a bottle bottom) and rely on even complex shots ... try it to believe it... especially at the negligible cost of about €. 330.00. To have absolutely also for the good opinions of which the web is full.

Pros: Optical quality, size and weight, bundled price with the A7C, quiet and fast AF. Easy balance on cheap gimbals. Blurry and detachment of the floors at 60mm pleasant.

Cons: Absence of light shield attachment, cost, front lens that needs a filter, because flush with the barrel.

Opinion: The objective in question is really a breath of fresh air: crisp, fast and quiet, compact and light. Perfect for amateur, or travel use. Outdoors or in controlled situations it is possible to use it in the professional field, even on video, because it is extremely easy to balance it on a gimbal. Lately I have been using it instead of my fixed 1.8 and 2, outdoors, because blurry is not always more important than the convenience of a zoom. And regardless the blurry and the detachment of the floors at 60mm is still pleasant, despite being at 5.6

Pros: Little Light

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: Caught kit with A7C in my mind I thought I'd sell it back, I'd make a big mistake. Crisp, AF more than good, flare resistance, good blurry, zoom ring not excellent but more than discreet. Given the brightness to use on sunny days. I take A7C +28-60 in a 3L Peak Design that I almost forget to have with me. Really very happy with the kit.

Pros: Compact, VERY LIGHT and very sharp on all focal points....

Cons: Chromatic aberration.... The "softness" of the zoom ring obviously doesn't have that kind of fluidity of the 16-35 f4 sony for example, but as much as it costs I would say it can stay there.... A constant F4 would have been very welcome..

Opinion: I usually wait quite a while before releasing reviews about products I own, but in this case I can already give my first impressions hot since it came to me a few days and about 150 photos.. The optics are a feather and the glasses are really very sharp and at the same time produce a very creamy blurry, for example at f5.6 it is hard to believe that it is the blurry of a zoommettino and already only this is a really interesting combination ... Its lightness allows very fast shooting times, I fell to 1/3s freehand, and this is a strong point. Mounted on the a7r2 I managed to put it inside a small purse where in the past I put the a6000 with optics kit, this to understand how compact it is. To the touch as well as to the view from a good impression of quality. Definitely recommended for those who love lightness, versatility and quality of detail ..... Further up, if I have anything else to add I will.... I would add, there is an interesting bokeh... I confirm the great sharpness, there is little to do, it is like having many quality fixes from 28 to 60mm ... I had to choose a quality fixed from 30 to 50 but I preferred this one that gives me more versatility with the same sharpness and blurry creamy, compactness and lightness...
