  • Our take on the Sony FE 28-60mm F4-5.6 Lens

    The Sony FE 28-60mm F4-5.6 is a compact full-frame zoom for Sony E-mount cameras. It collapses into a short barrel for carrying and covers a useful 28-60mm range, from wide street scenes to short portraits. It has no optical stabilization and a dimmer aperture than premium standard zooms, so it suits travel and everyday use on bodies with in-body stabilization. Owners praise its size and sharpness for a kit-class lens and accept the slow aperture as the trade-off.

    What reviewers say

    Reviewers and owners treat this as one of the better compact kit zooms: small, light and sharper than expected. Most criticism centers on the slow aperture and the lack of stabilization, which they say is fine on stabilized bodies.

    What people mention
    • SizePraisedOwners say it collapses small enough to keep on the camera and carry all day.
    • SharpnessPraisedReviewers report sharp center results, better than most kit zooms.
    • ApertureCriticisedThe F4-5.6 range is called limiting in low light and for blurred backgrounds.
    • StabilizationCriticisedWithout optical stabilization, shooters rely on in-body stabilization for slow shutter speeds.
    • AutofocusPraisedFocus is described as fast and quiet, working well for video.
    • BuildMixedThe lens is weather-sealed but owners call the plastic barrel less premium than G-series glass.

    Questions and answers

    Does this lens fit APS-C Sony cameras?
    Yes, it mounts on E-mount APS-C bodies, where the field of view is narrower, roughly 42-90mm equivalent. It is designed for full-frame sensors.
    Is the lens stabilized?
    No. It has no optical stabilization, so pair it with a Sony body that has in-body stabilization for handheld low-light shots.
    Do I need to extend it before shooting?
    Yes. The barrel is collapsed for storage and must be extended to the 28mm position before the camera will shoot.
    Is it good for portraits?
    It can do short portraits at 60mm, but the F5.6 aperture gives modest background blur. A fast prime is better for shallow depth of field.
    What comes in the box?
    The lens comes with front and rear caps. A lens hood and case are not included.
    How does it compare with the Sony 28-70mm kit lens?
    It is smaller and lighter and generally sharper, but it gives up 10mm at the long end and has a similar slow aperture.
    Where is the Sony FE 28-60mm F4-5.6 Lens cheapest?
    At Newegg, for $249.95, as of our latest check.
