I wanted to love this because the lens itself is amazing and would have been perfect for traveling. The wide range from 18-105 mm is versatile with clear sharp images. I’m not a pro and may not even really know what sharp is but in my eyes it’s great. BUT the lens had two scratches. One on the front end ( first picture ) and a small spec in the back end (second picture) . I know it’s minor but for the price for the lens i Want a scratch free lens. This is my third lens from amazon. The first I returned because there was a scrTch in the body and multiple smalll scratches on the front lens so I had to return. I ordered another emoumg lens (Sony fe 1.8/35mm) but the aperture was stuck and you can see a round circle in the picture. So of course I had to return. It’s so disappointing because amazon offers great warranty at a low cost vs Best Buy . But at this point i think I’ll get $$$ electronics arva place where I can examine right then and there before purchase.
