So how does Sony rate theirs? Are any weather sealed? Sorry for the DA question.lol I don't want to break the bank but I do want something nice, sharp and reliable that covers about the same range as my 12-60mm Zuiko, remember it's a x2 crop factor. Anyway I am looking at this. It covers a lot of ground. Please think landscape.....

What's your thoughts? I don't mind it being a monster lens since this rig will be my landscape kit and not an everyday carry all. I will use the Nex for that. If you think this lens is the wrong one for the purpose I want it for let me know.
Hello Greg,

I know this is an "older dated thread", but it contains information pertinent to me..

Did you ever pick up that Sony 18-250 lens (Sony A mount) and if so - what were your thoughts on it..?

Thanks,

Have a nice afternoon...
