The Sony E 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OSS LE is a super-zoom lens designed for use with Sony's NEX-series interchangeable lens cameras. Covering an effective focal length range of 27-300mm, this lens inevitably sacrifices some optical quality for versatility, but as such it's an ideal choice for travelling, where you don't want to carry too much gear. Importantly for a lens which tops out at 300mm equivalent, this lens features Optical SteadyShot to compensate for the effects of camera shake.
