I bought this lens because I was actually convinced of the standard kit lens 18.55mm realtiv, and even sought an extension of the focal length range. The lens is similar to the standard lens in terms of weight (+), handling (+) and the image stabilizer (++) a lot, and the lens is to the 200mm focal length rather sharply. Chromatic aberrations I could not recognize strong, everything ausbügelbar in Adobe LR. The price might be a bit expensive for the service offered, a solid and soz. Seamless complement to the kit lens is the lens anyway.
