A world's first* F2-2.8 large aperture zoom lens, Model A058, achieves a bright maximum aperture of F2 at a focal length of 35mm, compared to typical large aperture zoom lenses with a constant F2.8 aperture. Enjoy large, beautiful bokeh even at the wide-angle end. The brightness of this lens is also a major benefit when using fast shutter speeds to reduce camera shake or low ISO sensitivity to minimize noise. *Among Sony E-mount zoom lenses for full-frame mirrorless cameras.

With a focal length of 35-150mm, you can seamlessly capture images from semi-wide to telephoto. The Model A058's distinctive focal lengths, from 35mm to 150mm, make it the ideal zoom lens for portrait photography. With a single lens, you can take bust-up shots at 85mm, full-body shots at 35mm, and close-ups of facial expressions at 150mm. Simply operate the zoom ring without changing lenses to seamlessly switch between semi-wide and telephoto shots, ensuring you never miss a photo opportunity. The Model A058 boasts superior optical performance throughout the entire zoom range. Its cutting-edge optical design, featuring four LD (Low Dispersion) lens elements made of special glass materials that minimize light dispersion and three GM (Glass Molded Aspherical) lens elements, ensures excellent optical performance throughout the entire zoom range. Even when paired with a high-resolution digital camera, it delivers consistently high image quality all the way to the edges of the image, while also producing the beautiful, soft bokeh characteristic of a large aperture. It delivers exceptional image quality at focal lengths such as the 50mm (standard for snapshots), the 85mm (mid-telephoto range often used for portraits), and even 100mm and 135mm. VXD for fast, high-precision AF. The AF drive employs a linear motor focus mechanism, VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive). Its high-level AF speed and precision ensure exceptional responsiveness to the photographer's intent, allowing for stress-free, comfortable focusing from the minimum focusing distance to infinity, even with a large aperture lens. Its excellent focus tracking ability on moving subjects means you can capture every moment, even in portrait photography. Another feature is its low motor noise and quiet operation, making it ideal for still image and video shooting in quiet environments. A minimum focusing distance of 0.33m at the wide-angle end, achieving excellent close-up shooting capabilities. A compact F2-start zoom lens. A new design improves the quality, and each component has been refined for improved operability. A simple moisture-resistant mechanism, grease-resistant coating, and hood lock mechanism provide excellent convenience. Compatible with various camera functions such as Fast Hybrid AF and Eye AF found on Sony cameras. [Accessories] Flower-shaped hood (with lock), lens cap. ■ Specifications ■ Focal length: 35-150mm (when used with a 35mm full-frame mirrorless camera). Aperture: F2-2.8.
