Sony announces tiny FE 28-60mm F4-5.6 full-frame zoom

$(document). ready(function() { SampleGalleryV2({"containerId":"embeddedSampleGallery_7791768673","galleryId":"7791768673","isEmbeddedWidget":true,"selectedImageIndex":0,"isMobile":false}) }); Sony has just announced the FE 28-60mm F4-6.

3 collapsible kit zoom, a lens its calling "the world's smallest and lightest full-frame zoom lens. " It weighs in at just 167g (5. 9oz) and measures 45mm (1. 8") long in its retracted setting. Meant to be a go-to everyday lens for the photographer that wants to travel light, Sony claims a degree of dust and moisture resistance, and a reasonable max magnification ratio of 0. 16x will add to its versatility.

The new 28-60mm accepts 40. 5mm filters and uses a linear AF motor to keep up with Sony's latest AF tracking technology. It also includes three aspherical elements, with Sony promising high resolution corner-to-corner; we've been shooting it on an a7R IV to see what it's capable of.

The FE 28-60mm is slated to be available on its own in early 2021 for $499. It will also be available as a kit with the a7C in late October 2020, for $2099.

First Impressions: Sony 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS (FE Lens)

I'm very shocked at how much I liked the Sony 200-600mm f5. 6-6. 3 G OSS after playing with it for a weekend a few weeks ago. I'm not at all saying that because I doubt Sony's ability to make a great lens, but because I found the lightweight, focal length range, relatively compact size, and image stabilization combined well together to create what could arguably be Sony's most useful lens to date for photojournalism. thephoblographer.com »
