Sony 55-210mm F4.5-6.3 AF Zoom OSS E Mount Lens any good ?

[BADGER.BRAD]

Hello all,

I've decided to try and get a little more use out of Sony A6000 and go out on some deliberate photography trips rather than as a sideline to other things I am doing. With this in mind I'm thinking of the above lens to give me a little more scope for things further out, at one point they were selling it as part of a Sony Kit along with the standard kit lens. Have any of you used it ? It would be used for a wide range of photography. Or am I better off sticking with my adapted film era lenses.

Thanks all.

For the money, I found it a very capable lens on the a6300 I had at the time.
Here are a few examples taken with the 55-210

Thanks Mike, I really have neglected the camera and think that that little more zoom may give me a little more flexibility without breaking the Bank. Lovely images both theses and the others on your Flickr account.
