All-in-one zoom lenses for camera

Universal

— lenses designed for use in various situations and shooting modes. By definition, have a variable focal length (see the relevant paragraph); at the same time, the adjustment range can be quite extensive, which makes it possible to use such optics both as wide-angle and for shooting with magnification. On the other hand, in some areas of application, such lenses are usually inferior to specialized models.

It is also worth considering that the specific characteristics and general purpose of universal optics can be different: for example, some models are only slightly superior to "wide-angle" lenses in terms of the range of focal lengths, others have a very wide range, covering both wide-angle and "long-range" specialization, and etc. So the parameters of each model should be specified separately when choosing.
