This Sony SAL-55200-2 55-200mm f/4-5.6 DT AF Lens is a perfect companion lens to the 18-55mm kit lens. This lens has an equivalent focal length of 82.5-300mm in the 35mm/full frame standard. In other words: this is an inexpensive, short-to-long telephoto zoom for the emerging photographer. Great for nature and travel imagemaking.

Its cost, design, and overall size all lead the tyro to comfortably accessorize their kit lens, and begin developing a library of optics for their camera.

Note: This is the 2nd version of this lens. Not compatible with 35mm or "full-frame" digital SLR cameras

Smooth Autofocus Motor (SAM)
The built-in Smooth Autofocus Motor (SAM) eliminates the need to use a mechanical coupling system in the camera body to transfer auto focus (AF) drive power and control signals to the lens. Instead, AF control signals from the camera body are sent to the lens-mounted SAM unit, which drives the focusing lens group directly, helping to assure smooth AF response.
ED (Extra-low Dispersion) Glass
To reduce chromatic aberration at telephoto extension, correcting certain wavelengths of light for sharp, clear images with well defined colors.

More often beginners are preoccupied to choosing gadgets. They are inclined to those expansive G or Z series. Often this lens is non mention or rather underrated or underused. For the price, this lens is decently appropriate to be owned by most intermediate or beginners and a lens that potentially may roll money into his pocket. Wanted by candid shooter, or a longer focal length shooting most demanded especially in functions: wedding etc. When used as a telephoto lens, it gives decently pleasing detail of a medium distance subjects like hill, river, building. Upon fixing it on my DSLT and trying on my A580. I am more than happy at this stage. I am reviewing based on other lenses, I use: SAL 16-50mm SSM, Mini Beer Can, Minolta 50 f1.7, Minolta 35-105mm, Sigma 18-250 and the kit lens. I am more then confident using this lens on a second camera body during some assignment. This is a sharp lens, try it for yourself at f9.0, sharp at 55 and at 200mm.
