Every Sony E-Mount APS-C Lens You Can Buy

Sony APS-C E-Mount Guide

This list features all APS-C or Super 35mm E-Mount lenses that are readily available. This means it won’t be including those random lenses you might see flow through ebay. This list also features only APS-C E-Mount designed lenses. To see the Full Frame E-Mount lenses see my Full Frame Sony E-Mount Lens List.

The Complete Sony APS-C E-Mount Lens List

Many of these lenses could also be considered Super 35mm lenses, although APS-C and Super 35mm sizes are slightly different, these lenses will work for either.

35mm Equiv represents the perspective of the actual lens related to the traditional 35mm film standard. So when you hear someone refer to a 50mm lens, with APS-C that’s actually about 35mm because you have to include the 1.5X crop factor of APS-C. 35mm x 1.5 = 52.5mm.

Tokina Super 35mm Cinema Lenses

Tokina has made some very popular cinema lenses for the NEX or E-Mount cameras. The 11-16mm is designed for Super 35mm sensors which is pretty much APS-C.

There are also a lot of great Tokina Full Frame E-Mount lenses that will also work for your Super 35mm sensor camera. But I’ve posted those over on the Full Frame E-Mount list.

Fujifilm Cinema Lenses

Fujifilm has started making some Cine lenses for the E-Mount but also for the Fujifilm X-Mount. Fijifilm has been known for their legendary lenses. It’s nice to see them taking a consumer approach to the cine lenses.

These lenses also only cover super 35mm. So you would need to crop down your full frame cameras to super 35mm.

Chinese Lenses

Like on the FE lens page I’ve grouped all the Chinese lenses in their own group. Some of these lenses are actually not bad, but people do consider them cheap lenses, both in quality and in price.

They’re great for if you want a cheap lens to beat up on.

Sony E-Mount Adapters

There are too many E-Mount lens adapters to count now; so I’ll start by listing what I’ve used and what others are finding useful.

I love the metabones adapters but they are a little pricey. For a fraction of the price the Novoflex adapter works perfectly fine. That’s actually what I’m using right now because my metabones adapter broke and I just didn’t see any benefit of spending the extra money on a new one.

I also use the Voigtlander for my Leica lenses. It’s a very solid adapter. The close focus version just means it telescopes slightly.

Sony APS-C E Mount Lens List Conclusions

I’ll continue to update this with as new lenses are released.

Claude B.

Now is Feb. 2017, any update in lenses and adapters for Sony E Mount
Alik Griffin

This list is fairly up to date. There are a few I think I am missing. I’ll probably go through and do another update to this and the full frame list this weekend. I know Fujifilm just announced some new Super 35mm Cinema lenses today for the e-mount that look very cool, so I’ll get those on the list. I’ve also ordered a bunch of popular vintage lenses that I’ve been testing out that I might add to here as well.
Claude B.

Thanks for fast repply. That’s mean we can trust your list in the jungle of lenses.
This list is very usefull, great!
Alik Griffin

Thanks Claude, again I’ll do a pass this weekend to make sure I haven’t missed anything. Usually people tell me when I’m missing stuff.
Alik Griffin

Updated the list today. I keep my eye out for anything else I might be missing. There are a lot of new lenses coming this year. But also check out the Full Frame E-mount list. Lots of interesting stuff there including all the Chinese knockoff lenses that are dirt cheap.
Claude B.

Thanks, but witch one is Chinese?
Alik Griffin

Since they’re all made for full frame I’ve put them on the Full Frame E-Mount page. http://alikgriffin.com/sony-fe-lenses-the-ultimate-list

I put them in their own group down towards the bottom of the page.

Nothing in the Zeiss Batis range?
Alik Griffin

Zeiss hasn’t made any Batis lenses specifically for the APS-C sensor, only Full Frame. You can use the Batis on your APS-C body though, it will just have the 1.5X crop. All the full frame lenses are listed on the full frame E-Mount list here: http://alikgriffin.com/sony-fe-lenses-the-ultimate-list/
