If you’re not tied to Canon or Nikon and want an affordable mid-range camera, the Sony offers a good deal for your cash.

Light and compact. 1:1 macro capture. Crisp optics. No distortion. Affordable.

Very close working distance for 1:1 magnification. Edge resolution disappoints. Omits weather protection and stabilization.

Bottom Line: The Sony E 30mm F3.5 Macro is an affordable, lightweight macro lens. It focuses really close, but be wary of its short working distance.

Quite sharp when stopped down. 1:1 magnification. Nominal distortion. Focus limiter feature.

Somewhat slow, noisy screw-drive autofocus. Edges soft at wide apertures. Not sealed against moisture and dust.

The Sony 100mm F2.8 Macro is showing its age, but still delivers crisp images, especially at the narrower apertures you typically use for macro photography. But a screw-drive focus system and telescoping design aren't something you expect from a modern...

Value for money ; Fast and capable autofocus ; High-quality electronic viewfinder

Poor quality LCD screen ; Over-sensitive shutter-release ; Uninspiring build quality

Sony has produced a camera that offers real performance and value for money for enthusiasts and ambitious beginners, but the mediocre kit lens, build quality and rear display show that corners have been cut.

Good center sharpness. Optically stabilized. Solid build quality. Includes lens hood.

Noticeable distortion. Weak edge performance. Narrow aperture.

Your choice of kit lens for your E-mount camera comes down to which you value more—absolute sharpness, or a compact design. Both the 18-55mm and 16-50mm are optically stabilized, and even though we found that the 16-50mm isn't quite the performer, we...

Sharp at widest angle. Light. Compact. Internal focus motor.

Front element rotates during focus. Sharpness suffers as you zoom. Edges are never that sharp. Plastic lens mount.

If you're after a longer zoom range, and don't want to spend a ton of money on a lens, consider the Sony 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6. It's priced around $500, but can be had for less when bundled with a new body, and is a solid performer. You're not likely to...

Very sharp. 1:1 magnification. Focus limiter feature.

Somewhat slow, noisy autofocus.

Lightweight. Internal focus motor.

Soft images. Distortion. Rotating front element. Plastic mount.
