The Sony E 10-18mm F4 OSS is a constant maximum aperture ultra-wide angle zoom lens for the Sony E-mount announced by Sony on September 12, 2012, and released January 2013.[1][2]
Build quality
[edit]The lens showcases a minimalist black exterior made of plastic. The barrel of the lens telescopes outward from the main lens body as it is zoomed in from 10mm to 18mm.
Other features
[edit]While the 10-18mm F4 OSS is officially intended as an APS-C lens, it can be used with a full-frame sensor camera without hard vignetting between 12mm and 16mm focal lengths while the lens hood is removed, without needing to crop to APS-C, as the rear element still has adequate coverage over the larger full-frame sensor, although such usage is not endorsed or supported by Sony.[3]
