Best Pick
60-600mmf/4.5-6.3Sony EISWeather Sealed
Why we recommend this

A 10x zoom range from 60mm to 600mm, paired with a fast Linear Actuator (HLA) autofocus motor, makes this the only mirrorless lens of its kind, though its 2485g weight demands a sturdy grip. The dust and splash-resistant build and 1:2.4 maximum magnification add versatility for outdoor shooting, while the Dual Action Zoom function allows quick focal length changes.
