This lens on my a6000 gives me sharp images, nice compression of background, and almost perfectly round bokeh due to the 7 blade aperture. The focus seems a bit soft at 18mm at f4, but only noticeable when blowing up detail. OSS works well, even in a handheld video, and the focus and zoom are completely silent. If I only want to carry one lens for a variety of situations, this is the one.
