Zoom Lenses
The advent of the digital age—both in terms of photography
itself and the tools used for optical design—has made high-
performance zoom lenses more accessible and easier to
use than ever before. Not only are zoom lenses a great way
to be ready for any photo opportunity, but the freedom to
rapidly change framing and composition without having
to change the camera position offers creative flexibility
that is just too appealing to ignore. In many situations, that
speed and freedom can be the key to grabbing shots that
would otherwise be missed. Advanced Sony design and
manufacturing technology delivers outstanding image
quality with unparalleled zoom versatility and convenience.
