In terms of value, versatility and image quality the best lens upgrade you can make for your A6000 is the Sony E PZ 18–105 mm F4 G OSS. This is the one I use 90% of the time. <snip> … but I have no regrets going with the 18-105.
I also have the Sony/Zeiss E 24mm/1.8 which is my favorite prime lens, but it lacks OSS which limits its use a bit.
All of the other Sony/Zeiss lenses are FE for the FF A7 series and are a bit bigger and heavier than I want to carry.
I agree. The Sony 18-105 G is the way to go. It's a little on the big side but all functions are internal - the lens size does not change with zoom or focus and the front end does not rotate making polarizing filters or graduated filters easy to use. I use it on an a6500 and a (lighter, slimmer) NEX 6 and, surprisingly, it does not seem too big. It balances well and (what sold me on this lens) it's marvelous for video.
