Well this is a flat lie. The PowerZoom on NEX-6 works just fine and IQ is absolutely acceptable for kit lens. Well it is not a Zeiss prime, it is a kit lens and does it job fantastically. Same as 18-55.

Forums tend to exaggerate small details way out of proportion.

NEX-6 + the 16-50 is just marvelous little camera capable fo superb photos.

To the original poster. Please read no more non-sense and just enjoy the camera.
