Capture vibrant videos and images with this Sony telephoto lens. Internal optical SteadyShot image stabilization helps deliver clear handheld shots, and the internal AF mechanism operates silently during movie recording for reduced noise interference. This Sony telephoto lens boasts two ED glass and two aspherical elements for high optical performance across the zoom range.

Sharp enough, but slow auto-focus
on May 20, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
My first use of this new lens was taking some indoor photos at a college graduation ceremony. While I appreciate the compact sized lens on a compact sized camera, getting focus on distant objects/people isn't so easy compared to a full size camera with a standard grip. My previous camera, a Nikon D800 with a Tamron 70-200 lens could lock focus at least 4x faster - but it's a totally unfair comparison.
In time, I'll improve my technique, but I wish I had tried Sony's 18-200 lens. If it is noticeably faster to auto-focus, I think it would be worth the extra cost. If it's not any better, than the 55-210 is definitely the way to go. The shots that turned out, turned out great!

Does the job

I used this enclosure to clone a HDD to an SSD. If your computer has a USB3.0, this enclosure is really a time-saver. The old hard drive found a home in there and it's a MUCH better option than just using a bare cable to make a transfer (static, bumps and drops, etc). It also came with a mini screwdriver. I thought it was a nice touch. My only complaint is that the price is a little high.

Smooth Upgrade Experience on Windows 7

This is my third Samsung SSD. I installed Samsung's software, placed the new SSD in a USB3.0 enclosure, and let it run. It took just over an hour for the process to complete for this 250gb drive. I swapped out the drives, pressed the power button, and I was in business. A+ experience.

Smooth Upgrade Experience

While I already owned one Samsung SSD, I wasn't familiar with the Samsung Data Migration software that came with it. While I loved the speed of that drive, I had a poor experience with the transfer using third-party software. This time, I installed Samsung's software, placed the new SSD in a USB3.0 enclosure, and let it run. It took just over two hours for the process to complete. I swapped out the drives, pressed the power button, and I was in business. Never knew it could be this easy - and YES it is Windows 10 friendly. I was so happy about the experience (and the new lower price!), that I bought another Samsung drive for a different computer. A+ experience.
