Review on Enhanced Sony SAL18250 Alpha DT 18-250mm f/3.5-6.3 High Magnification Zoom Lens by Darius Permada Buana ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I expected mediocre quality, but the product was pleasantly surprised.

Compared it with Sigma 18-250mm. I took the Sigma, since the vignetting is much less pronounced (almost not noticeable), although the Sigma is heavier and larger than the lens from Sony. Sigma also has a hard, slightly jerky, zoom ring. I apologize to Sony (I have a Sony a55 camera), but the quality of the optics is more important! By the way ., sharpness Sigma 4 points. And yet, it’s better to shoot without a stub, for some reason it contributes to blurring the picture ?!

Pros
  • Pretty compact, lightweight and well-assembled lens. Sharpness by 4 points. Focus ., of course, super ! Smooth movement of the zoom ring.
Cons
  • Vignetting is quite pronounced, especially on SHU, I did not notice others.
