Best zoom lenses for Sony

If you want the most flexibility when shooting, you’ll need to invest in a zoom lens. Here we take a look at some of the best available for Sony, both A mount and E mount.

Zoom lenses are great for giving you the most flexibility, enabling a range of focal lengths to be accessible without having to change the lens. However, it can be tough trying to decide what to buy when considering the best zoom lenses for Sony cameras.
