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

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I'm happy with it, the price and the quality, I recommend to buy it.

This lens was bought by the corporation from 16-50 and 55F18 as a telephoto lens to close the focal lengths above 50mm on the Sony ILCE-QX1 smartograph. I held it in my hands for six hours. I don't use it very frequently because it makes the QX1 rather bulky, but it has occasionally came in handy when I was unable to get closer. compared it to the Canon EF-S 55-250, Canon EF 70-200 F/4 + x1.4, Tokina 80-400, and Tamron 28-300 VC lenses. I was curious in how they varied optically and in terms of use (the selection of lenses was made because I already had them in stock). I also took some pictures of fixed and moving things inside and outside of the test worlds. In conclusion, it was discovered that the Sony SEL 55210 provides a reasonably clear and contrasty image at the far end, as well as not only in the center, but also along the edges. This lens, which costs 6tr, performs similarly to the successful EF-S 55-250, which is something that cannot be stated for the more affordable but pricey EF-M 55-200, which I had to purchase from Japan because it was out of stock in Hong Kong. It is best to leave the lens hood on because it effectively shields the lens from shock. One of the 55-210's drawbacks is that it is fully silent and has a little slower than average focusing compared to lenses like the Sony 16-50 and 50F18. At the far end, the stabilizer is really useful and performs effectively. It is stupid to recommend or not recommend this lens because, if the camera is small, there are no other options. Definitely worth the money is the lens.

Pros
  • Stabilized, portable, affordable, unmatched in its class, and lens hood included.
Cons
  • Compared to analogs from other systems, it is too large.
