SKU CH-0WXD-EFCPV

Retractable APS-C power-zoom lens spanning 16-50mm (24-75mm equivalent) with f/3.5-5.6 aperture, Optical SteadyShot and autofocus while zooming for 120 fps video

  • Versatile 24-75mm equivalent zoom covers wide to portrait
  • Compact power-off retraction to just 1.25 inches
  • Quick autofocus maintains focus while zooming for video
  • Optical SteadyShot stabilization reduces handheld blur
  • Four aspherical plus one ED element deliver high resolution

Compact APS-C zoom for everyday shooting

Designed for APS-C mirrorless cameras, this lens covers a 16-50mm focal range with a 24-75mm full-frame equivalent view. A variable f/3.5-5.6 aperture keeps the barrel small while still covering most daily subjects. When the camera powers off, the lens retracts to just 1.25 inches for easy storage. It suits photographers and solo video creators who want one lightweight zoom for travel, vlogging or general use.

Passive thermal design and silent operation

The lens has no active cooling and draws power only for its internal focus and stabilisation motors, so it adds negligible heat or noise to the camera body. Optical SteadyShot works mechanically inside the barrel, keeping handheld footage steady without audible fans or extra power draw. This makes it practical for long shooting sessions in quiet environments. Builders who need a constant f/2.8 aperture or weather sealing will find those features absent here.

Optical SteadyShot and autofocus while zooming

Improved Optical SteadyShot counters camera shake for sharper stills and smoother video without post-processing. Autofocus while zooming lets a single operator track moving subjects through the entire range, even at 120 fps. Four aspherical and one Extra-Low Dispersion element maintain resolution from edge to edge. Users who require external focus-ring controls or a dedicated aperture ring will not find them on this model.

Questions about this item

How do I attach this lens to my APS-C Sony camera, and what step do people often miss?

Align the white mount index on the lens barrel with the matching mark on the camera’s E-mount, twist clockwise until it clicks, then switch the camera on so the power-zoom extends from its 1.25 inch retracted position.

What part of this lens will eventually need service or replacement?

The internal power-zoom motor and the Optical SteadyShot stabilisation unit are the only moving assemblies; either can wear after long use and would require professional repair.

What limit appears first when I shoot long 120 fps video clips?

Continuous high-frame-rate recording heats the focus and zoom actuators, so thermal protection may pause autofocus or power-zoom operation until the lens cools.
