  Sony SAL-18200 18mm-200mm Lens - Great Lens

This lens came with a Sony A100 camera I purchased & have been very pleased with the capability of it. It's a great everyday lens for shooting anything from family photos to sports. Very crisp & clear photos. It's just slightly larger than the Sony SAL-1870 18-70mm lens and a mere 6oz. heavier so it's still very lightweight to carry around. Whether focusing in for close-ups for portraits or auctions to zooming in at sports events the clarity is great.

Like I said, this 18-200mm lens came with a camera I purchased. If yours came with, or you already have a 18-70mm lens and are considering upgrading for a little more zoom capability I would probably go with the Sony SAL-18250 18-250mm high magnification lens. The only reason is price. Retail the 18-250 is only $50 more & for what you get it's well worth it. As always, you can get them cheaper online or eBay than buying direct.

If you can get your hands on this 18-200mm lens at a good price you will not be disappointed.

Excellent lens, very sharp. Ideal walk-around lens because it is relatively light weight and can be used for everything from extreme close-ups to portraits and landscapes.

  Sony's Good, wide ranging lens
Review created: 08/03/08

Could have rated "excellant for this price", but that's not what's asked. For a reasonable price, one can get the Sony 18-200mm lens. I've noticed no "bothersome" distortion at Any range. NO pincushioning. Nearly inperceptable barrel distortion, but not shot smearing at 18-20mm. Buying it used, on eBay, as I did, left me with a smug, "ain't I the smart shopper" feeling- having saved nearly 50% off retail. This made for APS-C sized sensors lets me know that I capture everything the lens sees- and not just the center as with a full frame proportioned lens. This is a great and natural accompaniment to my Very Nice APS-C sized 11-18mm Sony Wide angle.

With these 2 lenses I am Good for 95% of any image taking.

It makes me happy, fullfilled as a photo-bug!

  Just what I needed

I bought the Alpha-100 with the SAL-1870 lens. I realized soon that this may have been a mistake, since I had to swap in my old Minolta zoom telephoto often. Buying this lens used solved all my problems. Look for my 1870 on eBay soon.

This is a great super fast portrait lens that I can use most of the time when I am taking pictures of my daughters. Many of the pictures I wasn't able to get before due to the current lighting.

I highly recommend this lens, I have a Sony Alpha and it works like a champ.
