18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | C for Sony E

I absolutely LOVE this lens, the quality of the photographs it takes and the build quality are excellent. Autofocus is fast, images are nice and sharp and the 18mm is wide enough for most situations This is my go to do it all lens. If you need one lens then this is it.

Searched online for the best everyday lens for the Sony a6700 and most recommendations were for this lens. I have found it to be a very small and lightweight lens ideally suited to carrying around and although it doesn’t have built in stabilisation it doesn’t really need it with this camera. It gives a good sharp image and I have been very happy with it.

f/2.8 is Enough: Pretty awesome lens, I know there's the new Sigma 17-40mm f/1.8 but in my honest opinion this lens still stands the test of time. The portability is just much better and doesn't weigh much. You really get a whole host of benefits and zoom ranges which at an aperture of F2.8 is still more than enough in my opinion. Sharpness & OSS: Sigma is known for making sharp lenses in the centre and the edges which still excels in. Image stabilisation is of course not ideal with no OSS, but if that's a feature you want then buy the Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 which uses VC (Vibration Compensation), not the best OSS but is much better than nothing at all and you get more zoom. Overall: The best lens is the one you actually use, and this lens definitely makes a great frequent companion for a whole host of scenarios, arguably and still is the best APSC lens you can buy. Worth every penny

Great lens for the Sony A6700. It covers all the the useful lengths at f2.8. Sharp as a tack even in low light.

Just perfect for photos, but without stabilisation for video

I was looking for a general purpose lens to go with my new Sony a6400. I liked the fact that it had an f2.8 aperture throughout which makes it good for bokeh (blurred background in portraits) and was good for land scapes too. I would have preferred 16 to 50mm for a wider field of view, but the f2.8 swayed me, being better than f4 in low light situations. Performance is excellent. Crisp clear images, very good colour rendition and overall very good value. For me it is just right.

Seriously, I didn’t expect it to be this good. I thought this was an entry lens for aspc cameras but man was I wrong. This thing outperforms nearly all the lenses I currently have that cost an arm and a leg compared to this. The value for money is insane. Through the roof. I could not ask for anything more. Fits perfectly on my Sony a6700 ASPC camera and is as sharp as ever. It is not heavy either making my everyday camera set up very ergonomic and convenient to carry. It functions amazingly. Aperture is incredible, zoom is amazing and sharpness is very consistent even in 50mm. Incredible I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good versatile aspc lens.

This little lens is the most versatile and useful one in my collection. I had been using the Tameron 17-70 but this lens is so much nicer to use (I'm using it with my Sony ZVE-10). Nice and small (and light), it really punches above its weight, giving creamy bokeh that rivals my 30mm Sigma Prime. For most people, this could well be the only lens you'll ever need. The bayonet mount is weather sealed but you have to remember that the rest of the lens isn't. Having said that, I use this lens in my wood shop and even though there's a lot of dust around, this lens is fine. I honestly can't find anything about this lens I don't like

Good lens. Love it

L’un des meilleurs choix pour un boîtier APS-C en monture Sony E. Compact, léger et performant, il offre une qualité d’image impressionnante avec une netteté constante et une ouverture f/2.8 qui permet de bien gérer la lumière et d’obtenir un joli flou d’arrière-plan. Il est polyvalent et s’adapte facilement à de nombreux usages, que ce soit en photo ou en vidéo. Le rapport qualité-prix est clairement son point fort. On retrouve des performances proches d’objectifs bien plus chers, tout en restant accessible. C’est un objectif fiable, efficace et cohérent, qui s’impose comme une référence pour les utilisateurs APS-C.

My ZV-E10 pairs with this lens 90% of the time, shows how versatile it is. It's reasonably sharp for a small zoom lens. The weight and size are the main reasons I got it over the Sony and Tamron. As a beginner I felt the most important thing is taking camera out and use it, it's difficult to do so with heavier and bigger lens.

α6700と同時に購入しました。 今まで、α77とタムロンの標準ズームを主に使っていました。 Eマウントはコンパクトでいいですね。 画角はフルサイズ換算で27-75mmで標準ズームレンズ。F2.8通しは使いやすい。 旅行に持って行くには、これ1本で十分。動画の美しさも素晴らしいですよ。 （動画はZV1で撮ってますが。。。） 絞り開放でもAF精度が高く、ピントはバッチリあいます。 少々絞っても周辺が結構ボケるので慣れが必要かも。 イメージ通りの絵が撮れるよう楽しみながら撮っていきたいですね。 タムロンの17-70mmと迷いましたが、コンパクトさが決め手になりました。 注意点は、シグマはズームリングが純正やタムロンとは逆方向です。 長年、純正、タムロンレンズと使ってきたので、これも慣れが必要です。

El todoterreno que una cámara aps-c debería tener (en mi opinión, por supuesto!), el rango focal (18-50) es excelente y junto con su apertura (F2.8), lo hacen ideal para viajar con el, su tamaño y peso es ideal, pues no llama la atención y se puede hacer fotografía de calle y viajes muy bien con él, además su calidad óptica es muy buena de verdad..., además su relación calidad-precio es excelente. En mi caso lo compré para una Sony a6400 y estoy feliz.
