Q: 1. Is this a parfocal lens?

A: Hmmm. Good question. I guess if you use it in auto mode it seems to stay in focus but I will not say it's a true parfocal esp with such a wide focal range.If you focus in close and then zoom out it's probably very good but I'd say that it's probably not although I have not actually investigated how well it remains in focus.

Q: 9. I just bought a Sony A6000. Will this hood fit my camera lens? Thanks

A: I use this on my a6000 and it works fine. The shade turns freely on the adapter (no dot or mark for where to position it). So you need to be careful that it is orientated properly or it will interfere with the photo at wide angle. You can put a mark on the shade to help check it is in the proper position.
