This lens features Sony’s Optical SteadyShot autofocus system, giving users the ability to capture images and video with minimal camera shake.

This is a decent telephoto range zoom for the NEX E-mount cameras. For kids’ sports, or just-for-fun wildlife, this lens will work fine. It has Sony’s image stabilization which works pretty well, so that’s a definite plus. As far as image quality goes, it’s on par with everyone else’s consumer-grade telephoto zooms. It’s not going to give you “pro” quality, but the NEX system isn’t marketed as that… so far.
