Sony E-mount lens notes
Sony E-mount includes both APS-C and full-frame lenses. Full-frame Sony FE lenses can also be used on APS-C bodies, while APS-C-specific E lenses are generally less ideal if you may move to full frame later. One of Sony’s biggest strengths is its large ecosystem of native and third-party lenses.
