SEL16F28

Light weight, heavy duty.

Ultra compact and elegant, the SAL16F28 compliments your camera with a refined feel. The

lens barrel is contracted from high-quality aluminum alloy which provides maximum durability

in combination with the metal lens mount. Weighing in at only 2.5 oz (70g) it measures 62mm in

diameter and 22.5mm thick.

Made for movies

The SAL16F28 performs equally as well when shooting video. Thanks to an internal stepping

motor and rear-focusing design It has optimized video performance for smooth, quiet operation

essential for high-quality movie capture.

Smooth Manual Focusing

An easy-grip focus ring on the lens barrel gives you a solid "hands-on" feel in manual focusing.

Additionally, Direct Manual Focus (DMF) allows you to focus manually after AF lock-on without the

need for any switching. This can be extremely useful in situations where AF can't lock onto the

subject accurately, or when AF locks onto a point that does not match your intention. Electronic

manual focus technology was originally developed for professional Sony camcorders to ensure

smooth, precise focus control.

Circular Aperture

The SAL16F28 features seven aperture blades that form a near circle. This result in a pleasing

defocused circular effect on the background of your image when the aperture is set wide open.

The same type of internal stepping motor used for the focus drive is used for aperture actuation

as well, that result in a smooth, low-noise aperture operation ideally suited to movie shooting.

Accessories for creative shooting

The VCL-ECU1 Ultra-wide converter and VCL-ECF1 Fisheye conversion lenses can simply be

attached to the front of the SAL16F28 to provide ultra wide or fisheye fields of view. Both

conversion lenses were developed concurrently with and specifically for the SAL16F28 and

integrate elegantly as well. The Ultra-wide and Fisheye conversion lenses offer single-focal-length

image quality with superior portability.
