Type

Tele Zoom

Telephoto lenses with zoom capability and optics that allow photography from a distance.

Lenses with a focal length of 80-135mm on full frame, 50-75mm on crop frame, and 120-180mm on medium format are ideal for portrait photography as they allow for photography from a moderate distance and flatter the subject's features.

Greater focal lengths are used for wildlife photography, sports events, and generally any subjects where a large distance is required.

Wide Angle Zoom

Wide-angle lenses with zoom capability and optics that allow for fitting many elements within the frame with relatively little distortion. Their focal length usually starts from 24-35mm for full frame, 15-25mm for crop frame, and 50-70mm for medium format. 2. They are usually used in street photography but also in indoor spaces where there is limited distance from the subject. The perspective of wide-angle lenses makes things appear farther apart than they actually are.

Lens Type

Variable Aperture Zoom

Lens Type

Lenses with variable optical (zoom) that remain equally bright (same maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance range they offer. Usually significantly more expensive than their variable aperture counterparts.

Variable Aperture Zoom

Lenses with variable optics (zoom) that do not remain equally bright (different maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance they offer. Usually significantly cheaper than their equivalent fixed aperture counterparts.

Sensor Type

Crop Frame

Sensor Type

Crop Frame

Lenses designed for use on cameras with a crop frame sensor (smaller frame).

Maximum Aperture (f)

3.5 - 5.6

Maximum Aperture (f)

Opening the diaphragm determines the amount of light received by the camera and affects the depth of field.
2. The most open aperture of a lens is called the maximum. The more open the aperture (smaller f-number), the shallower the depth of field.

Minimum Aperture (f)

22 - 36

Minimum Aperture (f)

Opening the diaphragm determines the amount of light received by the camera and affects the depth of field.

2. The smallest diameter of the diaphragm is the minimum value. The more closed the diaphragm (larger f-number), the greater the depth of field.

Filter Diameter

55 mm

Filter Diameter

The diameter that a filter must have to be applied on the lens without the use of an adapter.

Focal Length Range

18 - 135 mm

Focal Length Range

The focal length is the distance from the convergence point of the light rays inside the lens to the camera sensor. As the range increases, we have a smaller field of view.

Weight

325 gr

Mount

Sony E

Mount

The type of mount that the camera body must have in order for the lens to be fully functional when attached to it.

2. Some lenses can be used with older mounts from the same manufacturer, sacrificing certain functions (e.g. autofocus), or even with mounts from other manufacturers using an adapter.

Features & Functions

Image Stabilization

Yes

Image Stabilization

The lens features image stabilization function for clearer photos and videos when shooting handheld, especially in low light conditions.

Autofocus (AF)

Yes

Autofocus (AF)

The lens has an automatic focusing function. Particularly useful for photographing subjects in motion (e.g. children playing).

3D

No

3D

Lenses for creating stereoscopic images.
