Bought this to take pictures at my niece quince few months ago. Got really great pics of the event and was a great complement to my a6000!

Pros: Small & light Easy to use focal length Excellent image quality Great in low light No distortion Fast focusing & start-up Cons: May hunt for focus if the area is too dim (low contrast), but that's probably the camera's fault (A6000)

As someone who is new at photography, this lens provides a great experience as a first lens. Its better than the starter kit one and worth the money if you want something better than the default.
