I love this len,s its tiny and light but very sharp at f5-6 ,i use it for landscape macro general snaps buldings are good with this low light and night shots .Seems to be superb at portrait,s aswell. Only bad thing if you can call it that is the AF is a tad loud and it feels cheap ,ohh yeah it was cheap lol its a fantastic len,s for the price and punches well above its price tag,owned it almost a year now and i love it .

I bought this mainly to be a quick-ish standard view lens for an APS-C format. The image quality I've seen so far is great, it's light, easy to get to grips with, and the macro capability is a real plus.The only negative I'd give is that the SAM focus motor is a bit noisy - it's no quieter than my screw driven lenses, and certainly no substitute for proper SSM.On the other hand this is a bargain lens, so one can't expect all the good stuff you'd find if you were paying [$]

I bought this lens as an alternative to a 100mm Cosina macro that I have been using for some years, as I wanted one that was designed specifically for a DSLR. I found it fully matched the magazine reviews that influenced me to buy it: it not only produces great flower images on my A200, but it also performs well as a landscape lens! Autofocus is fast and accurate. It does feel a little "plasticy", but is still great value for money

This lens does everything my 50mm f1.8sam does and a whole lot more. It's great for macro and portraits too. It's a bit too cheap looking and feeling but this only let's you know it's a light weight lens. I'd recommend this lens to any Sony user. At a great price (considering it's a Sony product) and shape and fast af motor it's everything you expect for the money. You will not regret buying this lens.
