Half the price and weight, but not quality, of the 55-200mm

Another vote for the 50-230.  It's plasticky, not very fast and no aperture ring, but it's light and compact and a great walkaround lens for the occasional wildlife grab or distant landscape.  Even manages decent background blur on occasion.

XC50-230@230mm, X-H1, f6.7, 1/110s, ISO200
