Wide zoom for APS-C E-mount

This Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4 G OSS lens covers a 27-157.5mm equivalent focal range on APS-C E-mount cameras. It maintains a constant f/4 maximum aperture throughout the zoom. The optical design uses 16 elements in 12 groups, including three aspherical and two ED elements. Power zoom and internal focusing keep the lens length constant during operation.

Video shooters and event photographers

The constant aperture and quiet power zoom suit creators who need smooth focal-length changes while recording. Optical SteadyShot helps stabilise handheld footage at the long end. Photographers who require a wider maximum aperture for low-light isolation or shallower depth of field should consider a different lens.

Constant f/4 aperture across the range

The f/4 maximum aperture does not change from 18mm to 105mm, giving consistent exposure and depth of field while zooming. This specification determines whether the lens matches a workflow that relies on fixed-aperture performance for video or run-and-gun stills.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the lens is operating correctly after mounting it on my Sony E-Mount APS-C body?

The power-zoom ring should move smoothly from 18 mm to 105 mm, the aperture display must stay at f/4 across the range, and Optical SteadyShot should activate without noise.

What ships with the SELP18105G and what must I purchase separately?

The box contains the lens, front and rear caps, a petal-shaped hood and a soft case; filters, a tripod collar and extra batteries are not included.

Should I choose the f/4 constant-aperture version or a variable-aperture alternative for video work?

This model maintains f/4 throughout the 18-105 mm zoom, giving consistent exposure and depth of field while recording — variable-aperture lenses cannot.
