Used Sony 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS E-mount NEX Series Camera Lens, Silver

Lense is so bad, and out of focus (auto or manual) that it just takes up space in camera case now. Pics cant even be photoshopped.

I tested this lens with my new Sony A6400 camera and so far have been well pleased with the quality of the images. They are clear and show colours in their entirely. It is very easy to use and I will need to get more practice but so far I am more than happy with the results.

With ASP-C sensor technology ever increasing, I decided to purchase this lens to round out my a6700 purchase. This completed my conversion from a full-frame system. Combining the a6700 imaging with current photo editing software applications proves to me that I can get the same print quality as I did with my full-frame system. My only issue, which is minor with this lens is that it is not weather sealed.

I wanted more reach than my kit lense offered. This lense is great! Fantastic quality. It feels very sturdy.

Not sure why I'm getting asked for a review a full decade later & after I just traded it in, but here it is. Decent lens. But it was a pain swapping lenses so much since this is an APS-C lens and starts at the full frame equivalent of 82.5, that is telephot territory. The aperture is small, so it's not great in low light. It's small, light, and has good range. But it's a consumer lens, not a professional one.

ADORAMA is awful and has made so many mistakes with my orders that I'm never using them again.

Got this lens a month ago and I am over the moon with it. For around £200 the pictures are surprisingly sharp and the stabilisation makes the focus very reliable. I pair it with a Sony A6000 and together they are perfect for casual photography.

The lens is a compact lightweight option which i used with the a6600. I used it for street photography and wildlife photography, I got it as it was affordable and wanted to try out the mid telephoto focal lens range, turns out I love it.

Added this telezoom lens last month to the a6640 with kit lens. For indoor sports shooting, the manual zooming needs come getting used to. A bit tight n lagging compared to my old Canon L lens. But for the price it is good enough to get the close up shots of players.

For the price you cannot go wrong. Not the fastest auto focus but good enough.

I bought this as logical lens to go with the 16-50mm EPZ kit lens that came with my Sony A6000. The lens certainly adds a lot of extra reach and creative flexibilty with good optics. It is lightweight and perfect partner to go with the kit lens especially if travelling . The picture quality for the price point is very good in my opinion.

I previously owned this lens but I sold it and replaced with a much longer lens. Whilst the longer lens is a much better lens all round, it was much bigger and heavier to carry around for a walk around lens. This is when I realised the Sony SEL55210 E 55-210mm was a very useful lens and much easier to use as a walk around lens so I decided to replace it with a new one. Is it the best lens around no, however for the value for money, the size and weight of the lens and what you are getting for your money, I would definitely say yes. If you want that extra reach and want to add another lens to your kit lens, you won't go far wrong with this one. I cannot give it 5/5 but 4/5 I would say is an reasonable score.

A really suitable budget long lens for beginners that not only does not break your bank, but offers exceptional quality for its price. If you are someone who just got into photography, pick this lens up as it brings you so much more possibilities in your shots.

SEL55210 is small, lightweight, with wide range of focal length and has an image stabilisation - perfect for full day hiking, biking, walking, when every gram counts. I use it mostly for landscape, but also in other areas of photography, when I need telephoto zoom. Good price is a bonus.

Sony says it's its best selling lens and I believe it, it's easy to use with very good quality no mater its low brightness and low price.

This lens is amazing for the price. It?s portable than most lenses and has zoom all while staying at F4, and the photos still come out incredibly sharp!! The auto-focus is amazing for sports photography and video. I can?t wait to use this lens for so much more!

I bought this shortly after getting my a5100. Using the and the standard kit lens I was able to explore all areas off photography which interested me due to the wide range of focal length I now had access to. Since then I have only purchased prime lenses, but the the focal lengths decided upon where mostly influence by the photography I was enjoying with this lens.

The lens may not be very good but is worth the price, satisfy with the picture quality. Great for beginners for wild life and nature shooting.

purchased as part of a package on a first time interchangable lens system. Not disappointed as it does exactly what it is meant to do although on reflection I should maybe have spent more time with just the kit lens before narrowing down my actual requirements. But for the price and performance, very good.
