Frequently asked questions

Is Sony FE and E-mount the same?

Not exactly. While FE and E-mount are closely related, they refer to different aspects of Sony’s camera system.

The E-mount is Sony’s lens mount system, used across all their mirrorless cameras. It’s the physical connection between the lens and the camera body, and it’s universal across both full-frame and APS-C cameras.

FE refers specifically to lenses designed for Sony’s full-frame cameras with the E-mount system, such as the Sony A7 and A9 series. These lenses cover the full 35mm sensor area and are optimized for full-frame performance.

In contrast, lenses labeled E (sometimes referred to as APS-C E-mount lenses) are designed for Sony’s APS-C cameras, like the Sony A6000 series. While these lenses are smaller and lighter, they only cover the smaller APS-C sensor area.

Can You Use FE Lenses on APS-C Cameras?

Yes! FE lenses are fully compatible with Sony’s APS-C cameras because they share the same E-mount. However, due to the APS-C crop factor (1.5x), the field of view will be narrower. For instance, a 24mm FE lens will provide a field of view equivalent to 36mm on an APS-C camera.

Can You Use E (APS-C) Lenses on Full-Frame Cameras?

Yes, but with limitations. When you attach an E lens to a full-frame camera, the camera automatically crops the image to match the smaller image circle of the lens. While this works, you won’t be using the full resolution of the camera's sensor.

Can you use third-party lenses on Sony E-mount cameras?

Yes. Sony disclosed the mount specification to lens makers in 2011, and licensed partners such as Sigma, Tamron, Samyang, Zeiss and Tokina sell autofocus lenses for E-mount. Brands like Viltrox offer them too but are not on Sony's official partner list. Sony notes that it does not guarantee that every function works with every third-party lens, so check that the camera features you need are supported.

Can you adapt Canon EF, Nikon F or M42 lenses to Sony E-mount?

Yes, the short 18 mm E-mount flange distance allows adapters for most SLR, rangefinder and cine lens mounts. Autofocus and electronic aperture control only come with active adapters such as Sony's LA-EA series for A-mount lenses or the Sigma MC-11 for Canon EF, while most other adapters, for example for Nikon F or M42, are purely mechanical. Lenses from mounts with a shorter flange distance, such as Nikon Z, cannot be adapted.
