Overall this is a very good lens but I wouldn't say it merits a 5-star rating. I've found in a couple of situations (in bright light) where chromatic aberration was a real problem. For the money, it's a great lens. But to me a 5-star lens would be the Sony/Zeiss offerings and the clarity they provide. Of course, those are significantly more money. Just bear in mind if you're looking for a CA-free offering this is not the best lens - but if you are looking for overall good value (especially in lower light or natural lighting) then this will probably work very well for you.

I bought this lense for my A100 because of it's lower light abilities. This has turned out to be a very good lense. It's focusing is very quick, very sharp wide open & feels well built. I do wish it was a little wider at times, but if really needed I have my kit lense. I've since picked up an A700 & keep this lense on one of my cameras at all times. The picture quality has been exceptional whether shooting flowers, people or my dog, indoors or outide. As a bonus, I also like the looks of it.

This lens has impressed me to no end. It is incredibly sharp even wide open. The zoom range is extremely handy. The build quality is excellent. Now, to be fair, the first one I got I had to send back because it was "front focusing" but I had NO problems returning it and getting a new one which was perfect! This lens is an exceptional deal and with the Sony A100 you get the benefit of image stabilization added to this incredibly sharp fast lens!!!
It's my new best friend!
