Review on Sony E 55-210mm Lens for Sony E-Mount Cameras (Black) - International Version (No Warranty): A Comprehensive Review by Srivatsan Oling

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Worth buying the international version

From all the reviews I was expecting a good lens at a great price but I was really blown away by the quality of the images. Of course I wish this lens was faster throughout the zoom range, but at $200 I was willing to accept that limitation. I was able to take some really amazing night shots with it. This is a great addition to the kit lens with the A6000, high quality and light weight. The OSS is extremely comfortable at full zoom and the focus rings are very smooth. I definitely had a little doubt that this was an international model, but now I don't see why anyone would spend the extra $150. When you factor in shipping (which is almost never covered by a warranty) and the typically small warranty fee, buying a new lens costs the same amount.

Pros
  • fingers crossed
Cons
  • weak

I like It but there are limitations with the rest of my optical system. But see edit below.
