SAL18200 (DT18-200mm F3.5-6.3) Sony DT Lenses The APS-C size image sensor used in digital SLRs has slightly different optical requirements than 35 mm format, as can be seen by comparing 2 images taken at the same focal length. DT lenses feature downsized optics that are optimized for the smaller angle of view of APS-C size image sensors. These optics also result in more compact lens bodies. 35 mm format APS-C size image sensor DT Lenses cannot be used with 35 mm format cameras.
