Sony Announces Three Standout Wide-Angle E-Mount APS-C Lenses with the Introduction of the E PZ 10-20MM F4 G, E 15MM F1.4 G and E 11MM F1.8

01/06/2022

Sony further expands its lens line up, bringing the total number of E-mount lenses up to 70, with the introduction of the power zoom G lens E PZ 10-20mm F4 G (model SELP1020G), versatile G lens E 15mm F1.4 G (model SEL15F14G), as well as introducing the ultra-wide prime E 11mm F1.8 (model SEL11F18).

The first new lens, the E PZ 10-20mm F4 G, focal length 10-20mm on APS-C or 15-30mm in 35mm equivalent focal length, is the world's smallest and lightest[i], ultra-wide angle constant F4 APS-C power zoom lens. Outstanding G Lens imagery, impeccable autofocus (AF) performance, and versatile power zoom come together in a compact zoom lens that remains a constant length throughout the zoom range and offers refined visual expression and operability for movies as well as stills.

The E 15mm F1.4 G, 35mm full-frame equivalent: 22.5 mm, brings beautiful F1.4 bokeh plus superb G Lens resolution in a versatile APS-C lens with vast creative potential. This compact and lightweight prime lens delivers dynamic imagery, excellent AF and control and is great for both stills and movies with a high operability.

Large aperture, ultra-wide APS-C prime, the E 11mm F1.8, 35mm full-frame equivalent: 16.5 mm, delivers outstanding corner-to-corner resolution, gorgeous bokeh and fast, reliable AF for dramatic expression and stunning selfies. It is compact and lightweight so perfect for vlogging and shooting video on the go.

All three new lenses are individually fantastic. Years of experience and extensive lens design know-how have come together in the E PZ 10-20mm F4 G to produce a remarkable power zoom G lens that delivers standout performance and handling , said Yann Salmon Legagneur, Director of Product Marketing, Digital Imaging, Sony Europe. With gorgeous bokeh and excellent autofocus capabilities, the E 15mm F1.4 G truly delivers for content creators whilst being compact and lightweight for easy handling and the E 11mm F1.8 delivers high image resolution and is light enough to take everywhere perfect for vlogging .

E PZ 10-20mm F4 G

The World's Smallest and lightesti for Unequalled Mobility and Handling

The E PZ 10-20mm F4 G is 20% lighter than its predecessor (SEL1018), making it the smallest and lightest lens in its class with a total weight of just 178 grams even with power zoom. What's more, the lens uses internal zoom and focus mechanisms, and therefore does not change in length when zooming or focusing. Shifts in the lens's centre of gravity are minimal, making it a great choice for stable vlogging and gimbal-mounted movie shooting.

Outstanding Image Quality and Dynamic Perspectives that Only an Ultra Wide-Angle Zoom Can Provide

The E PZ 10-20mm F4 G provides an extremely wide angle of view with a 10-20mm zoom range and is designed to deliver a consistently excellent optical performance from the centre to the periphery of every image at all zoom settings. Three aspherical elements are ideally positioned to suppress field curvature and astigmatism, both of which are common problems in ultra-wide-angle lenses. The optical path also includes two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements that effectively subdue chromatic aberration. An ED aspherical element further contributes to high resolution right out to the image edges. Also, as the lens's maximum aperture is a constant F4 at all focal settings, it is possible to maintain stable image quality when shooting a movie and delivers manageable shutter speeds at dusk or indoors where light is limited.

A circular aperture and carefully designed spherical aberration work together to deliver natural-looking G Lens bokeh that can contribute to impressive imagery.

A Minimum autofocus distance is 0.2 meters with a maximum magnification of 0.14x, while minimum manual focus distance is 0.13 0.17-meters with a maximum magnification of 0.18x.

Refined Expression and Control for Movies

The E PZ 10-20mm F4 G features a new electronic power zoom system that ensures direct, responsive control and adjustable zoom speed. Even the subtlest zoom ring rotation is precisely detected and immediately converted to actual zoom operation. Users have a huge amount of control in a wide variety of shooting scenarios with a zoom lever. Power zoom minimises camera shake so that solo shooters can produce smooth, stable imagery and buttons can be assigned on compatible bodies for convenient zoom control[ii]. It always maintains balance and makes it a great choice for stable vlogging and gimbal-mounted movie shooting.

Advanced AF Performance Benefits Stills and Movies

With astonishing AF performance that gives still and movie shooters unprecedented freedom, it uses two linear motors for focus drive, delivering fast, quiet AF. Also, the focus mechanism is internal, so the length of the lens remains constant while focusing.

Fast, reliable AF can smoothly track subjects when shooting high frame rate movies, and reliably follow fast-moving subjects when shooting stills continuously at high speed. It reduces focus breathing and angle-of-view variations are minimised for smooth, stable movie imagery.

Mobility, Operability, and Reliability for any Situation

The compact power-zoom lens E PZ 10-20mm F4 G is designed to maximise control and versatility for movies as well as stills with a focus ring, zoom ring and zoom lever. A customisable focus hold button and focus mode switch have been carefully incorporated to easily adapt in changing shooting conditions.

Users can attach 62mm screw-on filters, such as variable ND filters, for more creative control and the lens has been designed to be dust and moisture resistant[iii] to provide extra reliability in outdoor use.
