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

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

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.
