Sony E 18-105mm f/4 PZ G OSS Lens

Covering essential focal lengths, the Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4 G OSS is tailored for APS-C E-mount cameras, delivering a flexible 27-157.5mm equivalent zoom range. Its constant f/4 aperture ensures consistent exposure throughout the zoom. Ideal for both photography and videography, the lens includes a power zoom system and Handycam technology for smooth, silent zoom and focus adjustments. Optical performance is enhanced by two extra-low dispersion and three aspherical elements that minimize aberrations, producing sharp and clear images.

This lens also features Optical SteadyShot image stabilization to minimize camera shake, particularly at extended zoom ranges. Its internal focusing mechanism maintains a constant lens length throughout focusing. Furthermore, it achieves a minimum focusing distance of 45cm and incorporates a seven-blade circular diaphragm to produce smooth, pleasing bokeh.

Key Features:

• A versatile mid-range zoom for APS-C-format E-mount cameras, this 18-105mm lens provides a wide-angle to short telephoto 27-157.5mm equivalent focal length that works for anything from vast landscapes to tight portraits to distant subjects.
• A constant f/4 maximum aperture offers consistent performance throughout the zoom range and also lends greater control over focus position for shallow depth of field techniques.
• Two extra-low dispersion glass elements are featured in the lens design to help reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved clarity and color neutrality.
• Three aspherical elements, including one Advanced Aspherical (AA), are incorporated in the lens design to reduce astigmatism, field curvature, coma, and other monochromatic aberrations.
• Optical SteadyShot image stabilization helps to minimize the appearance of camera shake for sharper imagery when shooting handheld with slower shutter speeds. This stabilization system can also be combined with select camera's sensor-shift type image stabilization for more effective control of camera blur.
• Enjoy smooth zooms ideal for shooting movies with the power zoom mechanism which uses Handycam technology from Sony's well-regarded camcorders.
• An internal focus design contributes to fast autofocus speeds and the minimum focus distance of 45cm and easier handling as the lens maintains its overall length.
• Rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques.
