Newsshooter played with the new lens at the NABshow and shared this video I embedded on top. The Z-mount version of this lens will be launched some time after the E-mount lens launch.

Dpreview shared some image samples on their website and wrote this:

We found it to be relatively impressive, though we noticed some softness at the edges (especially when shooting wide open) and a propensity to flare under bright lighting.
We were impressed by its build quality; the aperture ring is satisfying to turn, and the rubber coating on the zoom and focus rings makes it very easy to handle.

There is a new leaked press text I google translated from a chinese website:

It emphasizes portability, high image quality, and strong autofocus, precisely filling a gap in the domestic autofocus lens market.
