Q: QuestionSony - 55-210mm Zoom Lens for Sony NEX Digital CamerasI am looking for a lens with great zoom capacity and picture quality. I have the Sony NEX len that came with the camera. Will this do? What does 55-210mm mean?

Asked 13 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer The Sony SEL55210 Lens is compatible with the Sony NEX series Cameras. It has 3.8x Zoom with consistently outstanding optical performance all the way. The built-in Optical SteadyShot (OSS) image stabilization is a huge advantage when shooting at longer focal lengths or in low light, making it easy to capture crisp, stable images at up to four shutter speeds lower than would normally be possible. It provides a wide focal range of up to 315mm (35mm equivalent) ideal for sports or nature shooting and is equipped with two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements helps suppress chromatic aberration and color bleeding at all focal lengths providing excellent image quality throughout the zoom range. The 55-210 specification indicates the focal length of the Lens.
