Wide-to-Tele Zoom. The Sony E 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS gives APS-C format Sony E-mount users a single-lens option that covers wide-angle (27mm full-frame equivalent) to medium-telephoto (202.5mm equivalent) focal lengths. This lens’s 1.5-foot minimum focusing distance and 0.29x maximum magnification make it great for working with close-up subjects, while the rounded seven-blade diaphragm provides smooth bokeh when you’re using selective-focus techniques.
High-Quality Optics. This lens’s twelve-group/sixteen-element design incorporates one aspherical element and two ED elements to minimize color fringing, distortion, and chromatic aberrations.
Optical SteadyShot Image Stabilization. The in-lens stabilizer corrects camera shake, which is crucial for hand-held shooting at lower shutter speeds. You can also use this lens’s image-stabilization system in tandem with select cameras’ sensor-shift stabilization systems for even greater control over blur.
Linear Autofocus Motor. The linear autofocus motor provides fast, highly accurate, and silent focusing performance that’s particularly great for video use. The dedicated AF/MF switch lets you quickly change between autofocus and manual-focusing modes.
