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.

Macro

The lens has a macro function for photographing subjects from very close distances.

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

Full Frame

Sensor Type

Full Frame

Photographic lenses designed for use on full frame sensor cameras. A full frame lens can also be used on a crop frame sensor camera, but with its focal length adjusted according to the corresponding crop factor.

For example, a full frame lens with a focal length of 50mm (standard) on a camera body with a crop factor of 1.6 will function with a perspective as if it were an 80mm lens (telephoto).

The reverse does not work as the optics of a crop frame lens are not sufficient to cover an entire full frame sensor, resulting in the edges of the frame being black (severe vignetting).

Maximum Aperture (f)

5.6 - 6.7

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.

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

100 - 300 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

444 gr

Mount

Sony A

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

No

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.
