A zoom lens is a photographic lens that allows you to gradually change the lens's focal length from wide-angle to telephoto and vice versa as needed. So the angle of view of the lens can be adjusted to best suite the photograph you would like to create.

This category contains all zoom lenses available for sale from Outdoorphoto in all brands we stock. If you need an all-round lens that is convenient for travel or even professional use where you often need to change focal length quickly to frame your photo better, a zoom lens would be the best option. With a Zoom Lens you can easily change the composition by zooming in or out. Zoom Lenses however, are not always optically as good as prime lenses. However there are professional zoom lenses available that offer excellent quality none-the-less.

Zoom lenses are available in short focal lengths (wide-angle zoom lenses) and longer focal lengths (telephoto zoom lenses). Wider angles are ideal for landscape and architectural photography and telephoto is mostly used for wildlife and sport photography.
