Versatile APS-C Power Zoom Lens – 27-157.5mm Full-Frame Equivalent, Constant f/4 Maximum Aperture, Handycam-Derived Power Zoom Mechanism, Optical SteadyShot (OSS) Image Stabilization, Internal Zoom & Focus Mechanics, 2 ED & 3 Aspherical Elements, Includes Front Cap, Rear Cap & Dedicated Lens Hood (Excellent Condition)
The Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4 G OSS is a versatile, high-performance G-series standard-to-telephoto zoom lens designed for APS-C-format Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras (27-157.5mm full-frame equivalent). Engineered for hybrid photo and video production, it pairs an expansive 5.8x zoom range with a constant f/4 maximum aperture, maintaining consistent light transmission and exposure parameters across all focal lengths.
Built with cinema and broadcast technology borrowed from Sony’s Handycam line, the lens features an electronically controlled Power Zoom rocker switch and internal zoom/focus mechanics that keep the barrel length constant while delivering smooth, quiet zooming. The optical design incorporates 16 elements in 12 groups, including two Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass elements and three aspherical elements (with one Advanced Aspherical) to suppress chromatic and spherical aberrations for sharp, high-contrast imagery. Integrated Optical SteadyShot (OSS) stabilization minimizes handheld camera shake, while a 7-blade circular aperture renders smooth, natural background bokeh.
