The Sony E 18-135 mm F3.5-5.6 OSS is an E-mount zoom lens for APS-C format cameras. It covers 18mm wide-angle to 135mm telephoto, a 7.5x zoom range. That is 27-202.5mm in 35mm equivalent terms.
The optical design includes one aspherical element and two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements. The aspherical element supports resolution from the center to the edges of the image throughout the zoom range. The ED elements suppress chromatic aberration. Optical SteadyShot image stabilization helps reduce blur in handheld shots.
A linear motor drives the autofocus, which is fast, precise and quiet for both stills and movies. The lens focuses as close as 0.45 m (1.48 ft) at 0.29x maximum magnification. A seven-blade circular diaphragm shapes the background blur.
