QuestionWill this lens work on a sony cyber shot exmor R?I'm trying to understand lens options that will work for my son's camera ( for a birthday gift)...... Thanks
Asked 11 years ago by Kate.
- Answer I don't think it will work for normal digital camera as your cyber shot. This is for sony mirroless camera. I don't think you can buy any lens for your cyber shot.

QuestionIs this lens auto-focus or manual?
Asked 5 years ago by Idfk.
- Answer I’m certainly not an expert photographer, so my answer is in layman’s terms. I use this lens often for capturing my child at gymnastic meets, where I can’t get physically close to the action. My answer to your question is both. This lens itself does not have manual/auto focus switch, like some others do. The amount of zoom is manual as you frame your shot. The lens then works with the (Sony) camera’s auto-focus capability when the shot button is pressed halfway down.

QuestionIs this lens a full frame lense or does it have a crop ratio?
Asked 6 years ago by Scribz23.
- Answer Hi Scribz23, This model is not a full frame lens. It is designed for Sony mirrorless cameras with APS-C sized sensors. When connected to a full frame camera, the angle of view will be narrowed down to that of APS-C size. ~Ralph
