At the maximum focal length of 135mm, I managed to shoot a frame without blurring at a shutter speed of 1/6 with this lens, the 18-55 kit lens allowed me this only at 18mm. There is nothing to say about 55-210 in this regard, it would be necessary to sell it now. The matte black color is much better than the glossy silver (which was previously common with Sony): the lens is beautiful and pleasant to the touch. Filters 55mm. I recommend taking the unswept one (the one that came with the carcass) if you want to save a little.
