Broke within the first week
Broke within the first week. I went to Alaska right after purchasing it and the power zoom stopped working on the 4th day I was in Alaska. This made the camera unable to recognize the lense thus making the lense inoperable and useless. Thankfully I bought the other 55-200 lense and was able to use that, but that drastically limited the type of shots I was able to take. I purchased an extra warranty and customer service refuses to respond to my emails. It took. Beautiful images before it broke though.

Description
The Sony E PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS Lens is a compact, lightweight zoom designed specifically for Sony's APS-C E-mount mirrorless cameras. Offering a versatile 24-75mm equivalent focal range, it’s perfect for wide-angle landscapes, tight portraits, and general everyday shooting. Its retractable design keeps your camera setup sleek and easy to carry, making it an excellent travel companion.
Optically, this lens is engineered for clarity and quality. One extra-low dispersion (ED) element reduces color fringing and chromatic aberrations, while four aspherical elements minimize distortion and maintain sharpness across the frame. A rounded seven-blade diaphragm provides smooth, attractive bokeh when working with shallow depth of field. The built-in Power Zoom mechanism offers smooth, controlled zooming via an on-lens switch or compatible camera body controls—ideal for video use.
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization reduces blur from hand shake, especially in low-light conditions or at longer focal lengths. Combined with internal focusing and a close minimum focus distance of just 9.8", this lens ensures fast autofocus performance and close-up versatility in a small, easy-to-use package.

Reviews
great features
I purchased the Sony ZV-E10 a few months ago, and so far, I feel it's quite good, whether for taking photos or shooting videos, but the battery capacity is indeed too small.
Fast autofocus
For a kit lens I was impressed with the sharpness of images and how smoothly the a.f works
Great little lens
The E PZ 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS kit lens that came with the camera does not get the best review but as seen in the architectural photos it does a very good job with a little care when taking the photo. Overall I'm really happy with this little lens and will be sticking with it for hopefully many years to come.

Sony Lens the 55-210mm optical Steady Shot
When I purchased this last month I was truly excited for the purchase I made, mainly because I knew these lens are quite pricey, but they are worth every dollar! I'm now a proud owner of the 55-210mm lens from Sony! And truly can't wait to try out a prime lens!
Great Camera
I love it, it’s my first and I’m so inlove! Great feature
Unfair reputation?
This was one of two lenses I got when I initially purchased my a6000. I'm pretty nocturnal and, to be honest, I pretty rapidly got sick of and replaced it, even though I kept it. The slow aperture just left a lot to be desired and I didn't really find its low light performance to be overly exceptional. I was pretty disappointed. Barring the release of a cost-effective a6000s, many of us will be choosing such cameras for our all-purpose carry around, and that means struggling with light a bit. Slow apertures leave a bit to be desired. I've been playing with it again a good deal recently. I still harbor a pretty similar opinion of its low light performance. Though, as long as you don't mind not achieving a proper exposure (which, at night, is sometimes more accurate than what the light meter thinks is "properly exposed", anyway, but that is really beside the point - you can't increase the exposure quite as readily without relying on slow shutter speeds and high ISOs, the point being)... so it is definitely far from ideal as an action shooter at night. Long shutter speed stills on a tripod? Not as bad. You can get some great images out of it, in terms of that. Lately, where I've found it really excels after giving it another chance, is (duh, obviously) in good light at apertures between f/5.6-11. Ideally I've been trying for shots at f/8 or f/11. Under these conditions, I'm glad I reintroduced myself to this lens. I'm actually really impressed with the center detail and clarity I get out of it for what it is. Though, that said, I'm not mercilessly pixel peeping all the corners at 300% crop when I use it. If you're taking the kids out to the beach on a sunny day and need a portable lens? It is pretty good, and casual shooters looking for a portable lens shouldn't have a problem with it. Out with the friends at night in a poorly lit bar? Not so much. Throw up a solid color paper backdrop, get some good lights, stay between f/5.6 and f/11 and you could probably even do portraits and full body shots for a client were you to wish it.
Not Bad, Not Good
Overall, I like this lens. Images are sharp. The lens is compact. A good starter lens in a kit. And the price was right when I bought it Dec 2014. But there is way too much barreling at the widest angle and some vignetting on the corners. I will replace this lens fairly soon.
