## Overview

The Sony E 55-210mm F4.5-6.3 OSS lens is a lightweight, compact telephoto zoom designed for Sony APS-C E-mount cameras. Featuring a versatile 82-315mm equivalent focal range, silent internal focusing, and 4-stop Optical SteadyShot stabilization, it excels at capturing sharp images and smooth video in diverse conditions. Its durable aluminum alloy build and non-rotating focus ring enhance usability, making it an ideal companion for hobbyists and pros seeking affordable telephoto reach without bulk.

## Description

Product Description A perfect companion to the SEL1855 or SEL1650, featuring an 82.5mm medium telephoto to 315mm telephoto equivalent focal length in a surprisingly compact 3.8x E-mount zoom. Blur-free images are easy to achieve thanks to built-in Optical Steady Shot image stabilization, and internal focusing plus an internal drive motor achieve remarkably smooth, quiet autofocus that"s ideal for shooting movies as well as stills. An elegant aluminum alloy exterior adds to the overall aura of quality. From the Manufacturer E 55-210mm F4.5-6.3 OSS Zoom LensThis 55-210mm lens offers a superb balance of form and function: ample zoom range in a compact design that is lightweight and remarkably comfortable to hold and operate. Built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization system makes it possible to produce sharp images even when shooting handheld in low light.TechnologyCircular ApertureWhen changing your aperture to defocus the background, the light sources appear blurred. This ‘bokeh’ effect of the blurred background can be enhanced with circular aperture blades used in this lens. Conventional aperture blades have flat sides creating unappealing polygonal shaped defocussed points of light. α lenses overcome this problem through a unique design that keeps the aperture almost perfectly circular from its wide-open setting to when it is closed by 2 stops. Smoother, more natural defocusing can be obtained as a result.ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glassAs focal lengths get longer, lenses built with conventional optical glass have difficulties with chromatic aberration, and as a result images suffer from lower contrast, lower color quality, and lower resolution. ED glass dramatically reduces chromatic aberration at telephoto ranges, and provides superior contrast across the entire image, even at large aperture settings. Super ED glass provides enhanced compensation for chromatic aberration.Aspherical lens elementsAspherical lens design dramatically reduces spherical aberration while also reducing lens size and weight. Spherical aberration is a slight misalignment of the light rays projected on the image plane. This is caused by differences in refraction at different points on conventional spherical lenses which degrade image quality in large-aperture lenses. Specially shaped “aspherical” elements near the diaphragm restore alignment of light rays at the image plane, maintaining high sharpness and contrast even at maximum aperture and can also be used at other points in the optical path to reduce distortion. Well-designed aspherical elements can reduce the total number of elements required in the lens, thus reducing overall size and weight. Advanced Aspherical (AA) elements are an evolved variant, featuring an extremely high thickness ratio between the center and periphery. AA elements are exceedingly difficult to produce, relying on the most advanced molding technology to consistently and precisely achieve the required shape and surface accuracy, resulting in significantly improved image accuracy and quality.Lens-based optical image stabilizationGyro sensors built into the lens detect even the slightest movement, and the stabilization lens is precisely shifted to counteract any image blur that might occur. The use of precision, quiet linear motors and technology inherited from high-end Sony professional camcorders results in exceptionally quiet, effective image stabilization that contributes to high-quality movies as well as stills.Additional FeaturesInternal focusingOnly the middle groups of the optical system move to achieve focus, so the overall length of the lens does not change. Other important benefits include fast autofocusing and a short minimum focusing distance. Also, the filter thread at the front of the lens does not rotate, which is convenient if you’re using a polarizing filter.2014 Sony Electronics Inc. All rights reserved.

Review: Good budget zoom lens - Maybe not the sharpest out there, but for me, a hobby photographer it does the job splendidly. I am really happy with the images it produces. Managed to get some really nice shots paired with Sony a6400. Will post a few samples. Overall quality feel allright, a bit plastic, but that also makes it lightweight which is nice. Also shipped with a lens cap for rear and front plus a lens hood which is nice to have.
Review: Great, affordable way to fill your telephoto niche. - I bought this lens in anticipation of a 3 month trip to East Africa and it performed beautifully. The build quality is very good, it held up for a 3,000 mile motorcycle journey and a handful of rainstorms, bumps, and drops. Though relatively large compared to the camera, it's still much smaller and more portable than DSLR lenses of similar focal lengths so it maintains the compact benefits of the mirrorless system. The small camera body looks a bit ridiculous, especially when the zoom is fully extended and the lens hood is on, but the weight and balance is very comfortable in the hand. Not an expert on performance but this lens was an enormous step up from the kit lens for wildlife photography and (to a lesser degree) portrait shots. Clarity is very good in most cases, though performance diminishes in low light. A wider aperture would be nice, but for the price I can't complain. The 55mm minumum focal distance limits the versatility of the lens (especially at f4.5 since a wider aperture would make it much more well suited for portraits) more than would be the case on say, an 18-200. But I obviously knew that before purchase. Overall, this lens does exactly what I bought it for and does it very well. I can't recommend it enough for someone looking to take advantage of alpha series' interchangeable lens system and step into focal lengths not provided by the kit lens.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What comes in the box?**

**Q: Does this lens fit a6000?**
A: Yes. It is Sony native lens for a6000

**Q: Is this a power zoom?**
A: It improves a lot the zoom, considering the power of the original lens 18/55.It is optical 55/210 zoom, with vert good quality.But if you are looking for "powerfull zoom"; you will be desapointed.

**Q: Amateur photographer here is this a good lens or is better to purchase the way more $$$ 350 lens?**
A: My personal opinion this is a good lens to start with I personally stay away from unnecessary expensive lenses and use YouTube as a viable resource to help me make right lens selections
