Non-compatable NEX lens
The lens is NOT compatible with my NEX-5D. There is no software update for this camera therefore the resulting pictures are distorted and have dark corners when in wide angle. I actually bought the lens to make my NEX-5 a pocket camera.
Pros:
- Easily Interchangeable
Cons:
- Dark Corners

OK kit lens
This lens came with my A6000 mirroless, my first experience with such a camera. Normally I lug around my Nikon D7000 with an 18-300 mm zoom. Took this camera and lens on a vacation to northern Italy. Still learning the camera, so results could be my inexperience. Overall an OK lens.

Cons:

Sony 16-50mm Retractable Zoom Lens
The Sony 16-50mm Retractable Zoom Lens is the smallest zoom that you can get for your NEX camera, but it's far from the best.
Pros:
- Extremely compact
- Power zoom control
Cons:
- Images on the soft side
- Heavy distortion at 16mm.

Sony E 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS Lens Review
Handling and features Performance Verdict Specification A common complaint with Sony's NEX camera system is the size lenses need to be due to the large APS-C sized imaging sensor. This new E16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS lens may be the answer to that issue.
Pros:
- Good build quality
- Compact when collapsed
- Lightweight
- Effective optical stabilisation
- Well priced
Cons:
- Collapsible design adds a delay between switching on the camera and being able to taken an image
- Loss of contrast when shooting into the light

Best e mount lens in this price
I was looking for an e mount lens. This is the best one that you could buy on this price. Not excellent, but good and acceptable quality in low light.

Great compact lens, but quality varies.
I got this lens with my Sony NEX 6 as a kit lens. As such, I did not pay over ￡240 for it. I knew that this lens has been designed for smallest size possible, and as such I did expect the quality to be compromised in favor of size. Despite that, I wan't initially too happy with it.

Same as original
the original A6000 lens broke. This replaced it perfectly.
