To answer the first comment: You say you have the NEX-5 which should have come with the 18-55mm lens correct? If so then you should just go for this lens. 1) It is over $400 cheaper than the 18-200mm zoom lens and zooms further than that one by a bit. 2) Another reason why you should just go for this lens is because if your camera came with the 18-55 zoom lens, then this one, the 55-210mm lens, would basically pick up where the 18-55mm lens left off and go the extra distance you were looking ...

Great addition!

By sportspix

I got the NEX5N last month, and couldn't wait for this 55-210mm lens to come out. I just received it last week! I find to be a great addition to the 18-55mm that comes with the camera.

For photographers seeking to broaden their creative horizons, the Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS Lens, available in a sleek silver/black finish, is a quintessential telephoto lens that promises to deliver high-quality, detailed images across a variety of shooting conditions. Ideal for Sony E-mount APS-C-format cameras, this lens extends your reach with an 82.5-315mm equivalent focal length range, making it a versatile choice for capturing everything from intimate portraits to expansive landscapes and dynamic sports action.

The lens's variable f/4.5-6.3 maximum aperture maintains a compact and lightweight design while still offering excellent performance in diverse lighting scenarios. Its advanced optical construction includes two extra-low dispersion glass elements that significantly reduce chromatic aberrations, ensuring your images are free from color fringing and exhibit true-to-life color fidelity.

In addition to combating chromatic aberrations, the lens incorporates two aspherical elements that address various optical distortions, such as astigmatism and field curvature. This precision design results in consistently sharp and clear images, even at the edges of your frame. The rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to the lens's ability to create smooth, pleasing bokeh, adding an artistic touch to your portraits and isolating subjects with grace.

Autofocus performance is both swift and silent, thanks to an internal focus mechanism that maintains the lens's overall length during operation for more stable handling. This feature, combined with an impressive minimum focus distance of just 3.3 feet, allows photographers to get closer to their subjects for detailed macro shots without compromising on speed or accuracy.

The Sony E 55-210mm lens is equipped with Optical SteadyShot image stabilization, which is essential for reducing the effects of camera shake. This technology is particularly beneficial when shooting in low-light conditions or at the telephoto end of the zoom range. For cameras with sensor-shift stabilization, pairing with this lens ensures an even higher level of sharpness and image stability.

Compact, durable, and reliable, the Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS Lens is an innovative solution for photographers looking to capture the world with clarity and precision. Whether you're a hobbyist or a professional, this lens is designed to take your photography to new heights, ensuring that every image you capture is a testament to your vision and the lens's exceptional performance.
