Hi all!

I bought the a6000 to replace my DSC-HX1. I am not into photography, just want a camera to take pictures for holidays. Did some research before getting it, but is not well enough as I realised that the kit lens does not zoom as far as my previous camera. A mistake on my part.

Anyways, I am looking for some advice for replacement to the kit lens. SAL18200 seems to have distance coverage but it is listed as discontinued on Sony Singapore store. Do you guys have an other recommendations?

Thank you for the help!

Hi, SAL is for their A mount lens, which will be incompatible with a6000. If you are looking at similar one, there is SEL18200.

Alternatively, you can get SEL55210 to complement your kit lens.

Guys, I need some advise. I normally use my camera for friend/family outings and holidays only. I'm having a hard time deciding between SEL1670Z & SEL18105G lens to replace my kit lens for my A6000.

SEL1670Z is smaller is size which is easy to carry around, but offer less range and is more EXP.
SEL18105G has longer range and cheaper, but a lot bigger in size(Think I will have hard time moving around in nightmarkets).

I personally don't find much difference in pic, when I tried them both out at Sony store.
Anyone owned both of them, can kindly advise on this. Thank you.

I owned the 18105, if I have the budget, I would get the 1670 instead
