Sony A-380 Lens Compatible

[rubens_t_vora]

<p>Dear.<br>

I got a friend that is looking for a affordable lens and he thinking in my Nikkor AF-S 55-200mm G ED. Is this lens compatible with his Sony A-380?<br>

Thanks for help! Rubens </p>

<p>No, it is not.</p>

<p>He should look at lenses from Sony or from manufacturers that make lenses with Sonymounts (Sigma, Tamron)</p>

B&H has an interactive application on their site for helping narrow down lenses.<br>

Choose "Sony Alpha/Minolta AF" from the "Mount" list.</p>

<p>If you're looking for a 55-200-ish zoom lens, both Sony and Sigma sell a version for around $200.<br>

I have been testing the Sony 55-200mm lens and it works great :)
