Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS Telephoto Zoom Lens (Silver)

The Sony SEL55210 is a telephoto zoom lens made for APS-C-format E-mount cameras, offering a versatile focal range from 55mm to 210mm. This range is equivalent to 82.5mm to 315mm on a full-frame camera, giving you the flexibility to shoot everything from close-up portraits to distant wildlife or landscapes without changing lenses.

Designed with portability in mind, the lens features a lightweight aluminum alloy body that makes it easy to carry on trips or long shooting sessions. Its Optical SteadyShot image stabilization helps keep your shots sharp and steady, even when shooting handheld or in low light conditions. This makes it a reliable choice for capturing fast-moving subjects like sports or wildlife, as well as everyday moments.

Inside, the lens includes two Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements and two aspherical elements that work together to reduce chromatic aberrations and distortions, ensuring clear, high-quality images throughout the zoom range. The rounded 7-blade diaphragm contributes to smooth, natural-looking background blur, which is especially useful for portrait photography or isolating subjects from busy backgrounds.

With a minimum focusing distance of about 3.28 feet (1 meter), you can get reasonably close to your subject, adding versatility for different shooting scenarios. The lens also features silent autofocus, which is beneficial for video recording, allowing you to capture smooth, quiet focus transitions without distracting noise.

This lens is well suited for photography enthusiasts who want a reliable telephoto option that balances image quality, portability, and stabilization. Whether you’re shooting sports, nature, travel, or everyday life, the Sony SEL55210 offers a practical and effective solution to extend your creative reach.
