The Sony SAL-18200 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 AF Lens is a handy, all-in-one compact zoom lens for versatile and easy subject selection for indoor or outdoor photography, specifically designed for the Sony Alpha and Minolta Digital SLR cameras. Ideal for capturing faraway subjects, sports events, dramatic landscapes and intimate close-up views.

Optics have been optimized for a small diameter image circle in order to work with the APS-C size CCD used with digital SLR cameras. When used with a digital SLR camera, the equivalent focal length for this lens is 27-300mm.

• Internal Focusing

Internal lens elements move, so the overall length does not change, creating a lens that focuses more quickly and doesn⿿t change balance.

• Aspherical Lens Elements

Three aspherical elements correct visual aberrations more effectively across the entire zoom range and help reduce weight.

• ED (Extra-low Dispersion) Glass

Two ED Glass lenses minimize flare and greatly reduce chromatic aberration, giving you sharp, clear shots even at full telephoto extension.

• Circular Aperture

Because aperture blades form a near circle at the wide openings used for low-light shots, spot-light sources have a pleasing circular defocused effect.
