The details

About this lens
The Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS is the standard telephoto zoom for Sony's APS-C E-mount cameras, covering an 82-315mm equivalent range. It has Optical SteadyShot stabilisation built in, which matters at the long end, and a light metal-finished barrel that suits the small a6000-series bodies it was designed for.

Best for
This is the lens most Sony APS-C owners add to the kit zoom for wildlife, sport and holiday reach. It is light and inexpensive rather than fast - at 210mm the maximum aperture is f/6.3, so it is best in good light. The built-in stabilisation makes handheld shooting at full reach practical.
Frequently asked questions
Will it work on my full-frame Sony?
It mounts and works, but it covers APS-C only, so the camera switches to crop mode and records fewer pixels.
Is it fast enough for indoor sport?
Not really. At f/6.3 by the long end it needs good light. Outdoors in daylight it is well suited to sport and wildlife; indoors you would need a much faster lens.
What does OSS do?
Optical SteadyShot compensates for camera shake, which is what lets you shoot handheld at 210mm. It does not freeze subject movement - that still needs a fast shutter speed.

Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
