The lens weighs a bit more than the standard kit lens and I assume that this is achieved by using real glass lenses instead. the notorious plastic. It's a pity that the zoom lens turns just counter to what I'm used to, but that's a detail. Otherwise very satisfied with the good value for money. Even more quality costs a large mountain of extra cents and is it worth it? Not for me for now.

I bought this lens to take pictures in low light situations. That works with this lens. Focuses quickly and takes beautiful photos. This lens is compact and therefore light and can be carried in any bag. I'm glad this lens fits on my Sony A200. This way my camera can last for a while.
