Sony E 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS SEL1855

i experienced with silver and black Versions - the black ones are by far better - optical (but only with Nex 7) - maybe selected. it's not very small but I like it a lot more then my new 16-50 mm pancake.
Pros:
  • solid
  • good hood
  • sharp in black version
Cons:
  • large

This lens came as a bundle with the NEX7, the single body wasn't available at this time. I never found it much helpful and as soon as the Sony/Zeiss Sonar 24/1.8 was launched this zoom found a new home in a drawer. The price was low but it doesn't count if you're not satisfied with the quality.
Pros:
  • solid build
Cons:
  • Picture quality: poor sharpness and resolution
  • Slow open blend
