I purchased this lens to supplement the limited zoom on a Sony HDR-HC7 which we use for shots we don't want to risk our big cameras on. It's sharp, lightweight and well-constructed. After looking at other options, including Sony's own very weighty option, we chose this one on specs alone. We have been very pleased!
