SONY E-MOUNT 18-135MM F/3.5-5.6 OSS LENS SUMMARY
This versatile, compact, and lightweight lens offers a 7.5x optical zoom from 18-135mm on E-mount APS-C format mirrorless cameras (equivalent to 27-202.5mm in 35mm terms).
Weighing only 325g, this 18-135mm E-mount lens is ideal for daily shooting and offers an extremely versatile range of shooting options for Sony’s range of APS-C format mirrorless cameras, whether you’re shooting portraiture, landscape, nature, or travel photography.
Fast and quiet Autofocus performance is achieved thanks to a linear motor, which makes this lens the ideal partner for high speed shooting and recording impressive video with Sony’s mirrorless cameras.
Sample image landscape (Tripod mounted). Captured at 101mm. Camera settings: 1/20 sec. f/8. ISO 100.
Lightweight and compact design
Compact (E-mount APS-C format) and lightweight (325 grams (11.5 oz.)), this lens features an optical design optimised for short flange focal distances that makes it small and manageable on its own while also contributing to notable reductions in overall system size, weight, and portability.

7.5x high-magnification APS-C zoom lens
A high zoom ratio provides a versatile 27mm to 202.5mm range (35mm format equivalent, 7.5x optical zoom) that covers a broad spectrum of subjects and situations: scenery, nature, portraits, and general day-to-day photography.
Sample image dragonfly at 135mm. Camera settings: 1/640 sec. f/5.6. ISO 1000.
Optical design achieves high resolution
A new optical design that includes one aspherical element contributes to consistently high resolution from the image centre right out to the edges, while two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements effectively suppress chromatic aberration.
Sample image pheasant at 135mm. Camera settings: 1/250 sec. f/5.6. ISO 640.
Close-ups with background bokeh
An impressive minimum focusing distance of just 0.45m (1.45ft) (0.29x max. magnification) makes it easy to shoot close-ups that take advantage of the lens’s beautiful background bokeh.
Sample image flower at 135mm. Camera settings: 1/320 sec. f/5.6. ISO 500
Beautiful bokeh
Bokeh quality is enhanced by a circular aperture design.
Built-in optical image stabilisation
When shooting hand-held, particularly night scenes or dimly lit interiors, built-in optical image stabilisation makes it easier to shoot blur-free images handheld.
Fast, precise, quiet focus
Advanced linear motor technology quietly drives the focus group with outstanding speed and precision, making the most of the high AF performance provided by the α6000 series. Accurate focus is more easily achieved for stills and movies, even with moving subjects.
