One lens - infinite possibilities: From landscape shots to portraits to sports and action shots, the flexible 24-240mm 10x zoom lens covers everything a photographer's heart desires. Five aspherical elements and an ED glass are installed inside the compact lens to ensure that the image quality is right over the enormous focal length range from wide-angle to telephoto. Sony relies on the powerful "Advanced Linear" AF motor for this model, so that the autofocus can focus fast and responsive from close-up to far distance.
The optical image stabilization "Optical SteadyShot" (OSS) takes care of the blur-free image capture. Especially in the telephoto area, the mechanical helper is worth its weight in gold.
For the new SEL24240, as for all Sony full-size lenses, dust and moisture can hardly touch it.
