What these focal lengths actually give you on the Sony a6700
The Sony a6700 has an APS-C sensor, so it sees a 1.5× crop of what each lens projects. Every focal length below therefore frames 1.5× tighter than its marked number. A 50mm on the Sony a6700 frames like 75mm, not the "normal" view its marked number implies.

| Tamron 12-20mm F2.8 (A084) | 570g | Weather-sealed (Tamron's own term is "Moisture-Resistant Construction" — "leak-resistant seals throughout the lens barrel"; the maker does not use the words weather-sealed. Source page states "Length and weight are for Sony E-mount", so 570g is the Sony E figure (the nikon-z entry's 585g comes from a different source and is not in conflict).) |
| Sony E PZ 18-110mm f/4 G OSS | 1105g | Not verified |
| Sony FE PZ 28-135mm f/4 G OSS | 1215g | Not verified |
