Telephoto reach for APS-C E-mount

The Sony E 55-210mm f/4.5-6.3 OSS Lens brings 82.5-315mm equivalent focal length to APS-C E-mount cameras. It extends the range of standard kit zooms for sports, wildlife and distant detail. A variable f/4.5-6.3 maximum aperture keeps the barrel compact and light. Two ED and two aspherical elements reduce aberrations across the zoom range.

Simple attachment with internal focus

The lens mounts directly on any Sony E-mount APS-C body with no adapter required. Internal focusing means the front element does not rotate, so polarising filters stay aligned during AF. Optical SteadyShot stabilisation counters hand shake at long focal lengths. Minimum focus distance is 3.3 feet for closer framing of small subjects.

Covers 55-210mm with f/22-32 minimum

At 55mm the lens opens to f/4.5, narrowing to f/6.3 at 210mm, which suits bright outdoor scenes but limits indoor or dusk use without raising ISO. The aperture stops down to f/22-32 for depth-of-field control in strong light. Seven-blade circular diaphragm produces rounded bokeh highlights. Telephoto compression and reach run out beyond 315mm equivalent.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the Optical SteadyShot stabilization is active after mounting the lens on my APS-C E-mount camera?

Half-press the shutter button and look for the steady-shot icon in the viewfinder or on the LCD; the image should appear visibly steadier than with stabilization off.

What comes in the white-box package and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains the lens with front and rear caps; any filter, hood or case is sold separately.

Which version of the 55-210mm OSS should I choose for a crop-sensor E-mount body?

The SEL55210/B is the only version listed; it covers 55-210mm (82.5-315mm equivalent) with a variable f/4.5-6.3 aperture.
