Though designed for Sony's full frame E-mount cameras, the lens can be used on Sony's APS-C E-mount camera bodies, with an equivalent full-frame field-of-view of 105-450mm.

The lens features a weather resistant matte black plastic exterior with the G-brand label and a rubber focus and zoom ring.

On the side of the lens lies a set of four external controls for enabling image stabilization, limiting the focal range of the lens, and changing focusing modes.

The lens is fairly sharp throughout its zoom range, with only a mild fall-off in acuity toward the edges of the frame at 300mm.
