Stabilisation uses a marker in the manufacturer model name; no marker is not a negative claim. Price filters use a current price when available.
One limit of this table: it lists only Sony E lenses that mount natively on the Sony a6600 — lenses fitted through an adapter are not included here. See which mounts adapt to which.
What these focal lengths actually give you on the Sony a6600
The Sony a6600 has an APS-C sensor, so it sees a 1.5× crop of what each lens projects. Every focal length below therefore frames 1.5× tighter than its marked number. A 50mm on the Sony a6600 frames like 75mm, not the "normal" view its marked number implies.

Source page states "Length and weight are for Sony E-mount", so 570g is the Sony E figure (the nikon-z entry's 585g comes from a different source and is not in conflict).) |

| Sony E PZ 18-110mm f/4 G OSS | 1105g | Not verified |
