The Sony E 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS Lens is a can-do lens--an 11x optical zoom 27-300mm (35mm equivalent) lens that can handle everything from wide landscape photos to portraits to sports, action and even wildlife photography with the telephoto up to 300mm. And the results will be brilliant, with four aspherical elements which reduce aberrations across the entire zoom range, a quiet AF motor for improved sound recording with video, and optical Steady Shot image stabilization (with Active mode) for steadier handheld shots while on the move. A circular aperture provides more pleasing out-of-focus areas. This lens is not recommended for use with full-frame DSLRs.
