Overview

Spanning a useful wide-angle to medium telephoto range, the E 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS from Sony is a versatile 27-202.5mm equivalent zoom for APS-C-format E-mount mirrorless cameras. Complementing the range of focal lengths is an Optical SteadyShot image stabilization system, which minimizes the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting. Also helping to produce sharper imagery is a linear autofocus motor, which delivers quick and accurate focusing performance that is also quiet to suit video recording applications. Balancing with the handling attributes, this lens also sports an intelligent optical design that uses both extra-low dispersion glass and aspherical elements to control spherical and chromatic aberrations for high sharpness and clarity throughout the zoom range.

Sony E 18-135mm Lens
An overall great Lens. I am currently using this lens on my Sony a5100. I hate constantly changing Lens when I travel. This lens has a pretty good range. Highly recommended.
T
Great travel lens
Great do it all lens for travel. If you only want to carry one lens, this is it. Light and capable.

R
Excellent lens if you only want to carry one!
This lens is what most people will want to take on vacation if they want to pack one lens. The wide angle is more than wide enough and the zoom is longer than most. Optics are great and I use this professionally.
S
Hits the Sweet Spot
I purchased this lens as the do-all lens for hiking with my Sony Alpha a6000 mirrorless camera. It hits the sweet spot of having a wide focal length while remaining compact and lightweight. I have been very pleased with the image results. It is a great choice when I don't want to carry extra lenses and spend time changing lenses in the field.

Surprisingly good, wide-reaching lens
I bought this from Best Buy for the convenience of being able to return it to the local store, and the hope of a near future price match. I did not expect to keep it for $599 + tax. When I received it, the immediate con was that it was heavier than I had imagined from early reviews. I have the 6300 with 16-50mm and 55-210mm lenses. These lenses are both light, and the 16-50mm is miniscule. Then I started testing the new 18-135mm. I was surprised by the consistent quality of pictures. My 16-50mm lens is good 2/3 of the time and my 55-210mm lens is good 3/4 of the time. Sometimes these lenses exhibit fuzziness from focus (especially when stretching the 16-50mm) and sometimes from camera shake. The 18-135mm is consistently good (95+% of the time) in focus and stability. Now I am forced to keep it. I will keep the 16-50mm for the times that I must be able to fit the camera in my pocket and the 55-210mm for the times that I shoot pictures of the moon or of a grandchild from the audience of a staged event. For the 90+% of my normal picture taking, I will be walking around with the huge (from my perspective) 18-135mm lens. Picture taking nets down to getting good pictures.
