◆A standard zoom lens recommended for first-time α buyers. Mount: E-mount lens (compatible with full-frame mirrorless cameras). Focal length: 28-70mm. Maximum aperture: f/3.5-5.6. Filter diameter: 55mm. [SEL28702] SEL28702 Scheduled for release on February 13, 2026
◆A standard zoom lens recommended for first-time α buyers. This compact and lightweight standard zoom lens is compatible with 35mm full-frame cameras. It covers the frequently used range from 28mm to 70mm, while maintaining a compact body with minimal change in overall length when zooming. The latest optical design, incorporating three aspherical lenses and one ED glass element, effectively corrects various aberrations, ensuring high image quality throughout the entire zoom range. The circular aperture also produces a natural bokeh effect. Equipped with an autofocus mechanism that maximizes the α body's AF/AE tracking performance, optical image stabilization, and reduced focus breathing during video recording, this lens demonstrates the true value of genuine lenses. Furthermore, its dust- and weather-resistant design* makes it ideal for a wide range of shooting scenarios, from everyday snapshots to portraits and landscapes. This highly recommended lens maximizes the performance of the α camera's compact, high-performance design and offers excellent portability. *Although the dust- and weather-resistant design is considered, it does not completely prevent dust and water from entering. ◆ A compact and lightweight full-frame standard zoom lens. This lens covers the 28-70mm angle of view, making it the first choice for a variety of photography, including landscapes, portraits, and snapshots. Despite its ideal angle of view and excellent optical performance, its compact size and portability—72.5mm maximum diameter, 83mm length, and approximately 293g weight—make it ideal for everyday photography. ◆Maximizing the α's AF and AE Tracking Performance High-precision tracking and focusing is possible even when zooming, achieving AF and AE tracking speeds comparable to the α7 V's maximum continuous shooting speed of approximately 30 frames per second and the α9 III's maximum continuous shooting speed of approximately 120 frames per second, fully utilizing the performance of the latest α body. ◆High-quality imaging performance with minimal aberrations thanks to three aspherical lenses and one ED lens element. Effectively positioned three aspherical lenses and one ED lens element effectively correct spherical aberration and distortion, delivering high-contrast image quality with minimal blur across the entire zoom range, even at maximum aperture. ◆Optical Image Stabilization for Handheld Shooting Optical image stabilization reduces camera shake, which can easily occur when shooting at telephoto distances or in dark indoor environments. By combining the in-lens image stabilization mechanism with α's unique Active Mode, high-precision image stabilization is achieved even when shooting video. ◆Minimized focus breathing during video shooting: Fluctuations in the angle of view during focusing (focus breathing) are suppressed, enabling high-quality video expression. It is also compatible with the "breathing compensation function" of α series cameras. ◆Dust-proof and splash-proof design: The design prevents the intrusion of dust and water droplets, making it durable for use in harsh environments*. *Although the lens is designed to be dust-proof and splash-proof, it does not completely prevent dust and water droplets from entering.
