Sony FE 28-60mm f4-5.6 Lens (Kit*)

The kit lens is designed specifically for the newly announced Sony A7C digital camera, the Sony FE 28-60mm f4-5.6 is a compact pancake lens suited for the hybrid shooter. A diverse focal length, this lens is ideal for anyone looking to venture into full-frame mirrorless photography and video creation.

Lens Overview

The lens comes with a fast and silent AF system which is perfect for those wanting to produce excellent, professional-level video content alongside high-quality, sharp stills. Its compact style goes hand in hand with the portable approach Sony have taken with the Sony A7 range.

Design and Build

The lens boasts a manual retractable design that is quick and intuitive to operate. Once the lens is extended you can clearly see which focal length you are working with, marking at 28mm, 35mm, 40mm, 50mm and 60mm allow you to navigate to your chosen focal length quickly and precisely.

The zoom range is short but still versatile enough to provide you with lots of shooting options when you’re on location or even just documenting life around you. Unlike a standard zoom lens, the Sony FE 28-60mm f/4-5.6 is incredibly light at just 167g.

Dust and moisture resistant, the lens is ideal for the content creator that likes to be shooting in all elements.

Performance

As you can expect with Sony, the lens produces excellent sharpness and clarity from corner to corner, even at the widest 28mm focal length. A 7-blade diaphragm helps to produce well-rounded bokeh in both stills and video, giving you a very professional look and feel to your creations.

Chromatic aberration or barrel distortion is non-existent with this lens, providing you with image quality that is second to none.
