Sony E mount cameras
Sony introduced the E-mount in 2010 on its NEX-3 and NEX-5, small APS-C cameras, and in 2013 took it full frame with the A7 and A7R. Its 18 mm flange distance, much shorter than the 44.5 mm of Sony's older A-mount, leaves room for an adapter for almost any SLR or rangefinder lens. Sony published the mount specification to third-party makers in 2011, so Sigma, Tamron, Samyang, Viltrox and others build native E-mount lenses. Older A-mount lenses fit through Sony's LA-EA adapters.
APS-C E-mount lenses don't cover a full-frame sensor. On an A7-series body the camera can crop to APS-C automatically, at a big loss in resolution.
