Sony’s history of advanced cinema cameras continues to this day with the much-loved Super 35 FS series. Currently dominated by the FS7 II, Sony developed a lens that would be a brilliant match: the E PZ 18-110mm f/4 G OSS. Designed for Super 35/APS-C sensors, this lens ensures a versatile 35mm equivalent zoom range of 27-165mm while managing a constant f/4 aperture. Boosted by the integration of Smooth Motion Optics to practically eliminate breathing and focus shift, this lens is optimal for run-and-gun shooting, particularly with shoulder-mounted cameras where you might occasionally enjoy the lens’s comfortable focus, aperture, and zoom rings or make use of the AF and Power Zoom functions.
Applications: The perfect lens for video production, thanks to Smooth Motion Optics and Power Zoom tech, the 18-110mm belongs on Super 35 E-mount cinema cameras. Also, it’s an excellent match for Sony’s APS-C mirrorless cameras because this lens features AF, IS, and excellent manual control for cine applications.
