E 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OSS LE overview
The Sony E 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OSS LE is an 18–200mm f/3.5–6.3 zoom for APS-C cameras on Sony E-mount, announced by Sony in May 2012. 11 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits wildlife and sport as well as travel. It is a weaker pick for rain and dust.
No store we track in Europe has it new in stock today; used and refurbished copies start at €256.49.
Worth comparing it with the Sony E PZ 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OSS, Sony E 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 OSS and Sony E PZ 18-105mm F4 G OSS.
