    • Lens Mount Compatibility: Sony A-Mount
    • Lens Type: Standard Zoom
    • Minimum Focal Length: 16 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Focal Length: 80 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)

Q: sonystyle says it comes with a lens hood and carrying case... why not here in best buy?

A: I've had 2 of these lenses and I can assure you unless the retailer literally removes the included and enclosed lens pouch and hood it comes with it in the box as an included accessory. It also comes with a QC sheet confirming level of performance. If you didn't get all this THAT particular store MUST have removed it but they most certainly are NOT supposed to do so.

Q: How soon will you have this sony lense? 16 - 80mm
