Sony FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS Zoom Lens for E-Mount Cameras

The Sony SEL24240 is a full-frame E-mount zoom lens that lets you move from sweeping landscapes at 24 millimeters to tightly framed subjects at 240 millimeters without changing glass. It gives travelers, street shooters, and event photographers the freedom to cover most situations with a single piece of equipment.

Inside the lens you will find five aspherical elements that control distortion and one extra-low dispersion element that holds color fringing in check. Optical SteadyShot works in tandem with the camera’s sensor stabilization to counteract shake, so handheld images stay sharp even at longer focal lengths or slower shutter speeds.

The focus drive is quiet and precise, which helps when recording video or capturing candid moments. A rounded seven-blade diaphragm produces a smooth transition between in-focus areas and the out-of-focus background, an effect that flatters portrait subjects.

The barrel is sealed against dust and moisture, so you can keep shooting when the weather is less than ideal. A front thread that accepts common 72 millimeter filters makes it easy to add a polarizer or neutral-density filter. Despite its broad focal range, the lens keeps weight to a manageable level, fitting naturally on Sony’s mirrorless bodies for all-day use.
