Telephoto zoom
DT 55–200mm F4–5.6 SAM SAL55200-2
Covering the medium to telephoto stretch of the “standard” zoom range
with ample F5.6 brightness at the 200mm end, this lens is a lightweight,
easy handling choice for shooting sports and other subjects that require
some telephoto reach. On an APS-C format camera the 35mm equivalent
focal length at the telephoto end is 300mm, which is long enough to
capture tight shots of the action. In terms of compact, lightweight design
and optical performance, the SAL55200-2 is an ideal companion for the
18–55mm SAL1855. The pair is light enough to be carried comfortably,
providing outstanding image quality from 18mm to 200mm.
