SAL-18200 ZOOM LENS 200MM ACCS F/ ALPHA
When you want to travel light and shoot a variety of subjects without having to change lenses, the wide zoom coverage of the DT 18–200mm F3.5–6.3 (SAL18200) delivers all the quality and flexibility you need. Specifically designed for APS-C format digital SLRs, it offers a focal length range equivalent to that of a 35mm format, 27–300mm lens, enabling you to move easily from taking long-range telephoto close-ups to shooting portraits, group photos, and indoor scenes. Constructed of 15 elements in 13 groups, the lens includes three aspherical elements and two ED (Extralow Dispersion) glass elements to correct aberration and assure clear, color-accurate images with excellent resolution and contrast across the entire zoom range. Flaring and ghosting are also suppressed, and an internal focusing mechanism enables any focal length setting to be used at the minimum shooting distance of 45cm/17.7". Add the smooth defocusing and snappy AF response that this lens offers, and you've got a combination that's tough to beat.
