Professional camera addicts who own a Sony Cybershot DSC-HX1 are bound to want this new special lens from Sony. Sony showed off their VCL-DH1757 Telephoto Lens for the DSC-HX1 at the Photo Imaging Expo in Japan recently.

Made specifically for a Cyber-shot DSC-HX1 digital camera, this durable lens features a classic black housing and delivers crisp detail even at the edge of the image. The VCL-DH1757 high-grade 1.7x tele-angle conversion lens for DSC-HX1 Cyber-shot camera will be available in early May for $230USD.

Long lenses also make it easier to blur the background more, even when the depth of field is the same; photographers will sometimes use this effect to defocus the background in an image to “separate” it from the subject.
