Good to know- If you just pack the one lens, make it this 'do-it-all' zoom lens that goes from 24 mm wide angle to 200 mm telephoto- Vibration Reduction (VR) aka image stabilisation lets you carry on shooting handheld, even as the light drops- Aspherical and ED glass elements (2 of each and an additional aspherical/ED element) help reduce distortion- Ghosting and flare is kept to a minimum thanks to the ARNEO coating- Weather sealing and a metal lens mount make this a reliable kit bag essential - it's nice and lightweight too
