| Auto Clutch | In auto-focus mode, the manual focus ring does not rotate and in manual focusing, a wider focus ring provides a solid, hands-on feel. |
| Circular Aperture | Because aperture blades form a near circle at the wide openings used for low-light shots, spot-light sources have a pleasing circular defocused effect. |
| Glass-Molded Aspherical Lens Elements | Two glass-molded aspherical lens elements correct visual aberrations and improve picture quality across the entire zoom range. |
| 5X Zoom Range | Smaller and lighter, it the only 5X zoom lens designed specifically for the APS-size CCD imager used in the Sony® α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera. |
