I was looking for something as a walk around lens to use with my Minolta Maxxum 7. This has a wonderful range and appears to be a very well built lens. It is small and light weight and a joy to use. Those reviews that questioned it's sharpness conceded that it is nicely sharp after stopping down to f/5.6 or f/8 which is where I customarily shoot anyway. For the price I paid it is a wonderful value.

It arrived in great condition, and works perfectly. Note that it's cheap because there's no built-in auto-focus. Focus-assist works just fine on Alpha models, though, and since I didn't have auto-focus at all until the last decade, not a big deal. SO, it you're looking at one of these for sports, or anything else that moves unpredictably, probably not your best bet. It takes a lot of practice to develop skill with manual follow-focusing. Otherwise, terrific deal for the money.

I have purchased 12 lenses for my Sony A55 in the past few months and this one by far is the best all around lens. Colors are fantastic, zoom is smooth and focusing is a snap. Added a quality CP filter and the results were professional looking, even for a novice like me. My version is the XR DI Macro AF. If you had to buy just one lens, this is it.
Doesn't fit my camera, selling wants $30 to return it. Nope! Bad sell.
