Pros and cons

According to our camera lens expert

Thanks to the large maximum aperture of f/3.5, you can take bright photos in low-light locations.
The versatile 30mm lens is suitable for street, landscape, and portrait photography.
You can capture even the smallest details sharply thanks to the short minimum focal distance.
This lens doesn’t have image stabilization to help reduce motion blur.
You can hear the motor when the lens focuses, which makes this lens less suitable for videography.

In a word ''Insane''

Lightweight
Pleasant grip in the hand
Super sharpness
Sometimes by being able to focus very close, you quickly work in your own shadow and you run the risk of scaring insects away.

The Sony Nex Macro lens is not only beautiful to look at, but its performance is even more beautiful.

Light weight and a pleasant grip in the hand.

I use the lens for flowers, insects and portrait photos and with a super result.

The lens can focus very close, which can be very advantageous, but which can sometimes work to your disadvantage in terms of sun direction or skittish insects.

The lens has a beautiful sharpness gradient and even with a 100% zoom in with a photo program, the photos show a beautiful sharpness gradient.

Beautiful color palette and a very creamy and amazing background (bokeh) in the photos.

The lens also performs well in less ambient light and the formation of noise is nil.

You can choose between manual or automatic focusing, and the performance is superb with both options.

This lens can also be used for portrait photos and the sharpness and bokeh are very nice.

Kotom for me a lens that exceeded all my expectations and allows me to take super macro photos.

Fairytalely beautiful macro photos, you can clearly see the threads in the flowers. Depth of field wonderful. Nice colours. And also works well as a normal lens at normal distance. Lens is also nice and light. Sun hood is included.

I should have bought much sooner

not too big (handy) +- 7cm long
autofocus
the weight is very light
the automatic focus can take a long time for small animals then

this review is based on a Sony 5n combined with this lens. this lens nicely complements the standard lens. Now I am not a photographer, but with this lens it is very easy to take beautiful product photos. and especially in nature, this lens certainly shows its best side also for a few overview photos, this lens does very well as it is a macro lens. objects that are a few centimeters away from the lesson, that's what this lens is really made for. that is what this lens does, super automatic focusing takes a while and every now and then it also picks up a wrong point to focus. this is easily remedied by releasing the button on the camera and pressing it halfway again. I have no complaints about the manual focus, this can be done quickly and precisely.

I wanted to leave it here, hopefully someone will benefit from my experiences
