This instruction manual explains how to use
lenses. Precautions common to all lenses such
as notes on use are found in the separate
“Precautions before using”. Be sure to read both
documents before using your lens.
This lens is designed for Sony α camera system
E-mount cameras. You cannot use it on A-mount
cameras.
The FE 28-60mm F4-5.6 is compatible with the
range of a 35mm format image sensor.
A camera equipped with a 35mm format image
sensor can also be set to shoot at APS-C size.
For details on how to set your camera, refer to its
instruction manual.
For further information on compatibility, visit the
web site of Sony in your area, or consult your dealer
of Sony or local authorized service facility of Sony.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference,
and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Notes on Use
• Do not leave the lens exposed to the sun or a bright
light source. Internal malfunction of the camera body
and lens, smoke, or a fire may result due to the effect
of light focusing. If circumstances necessitate leaving
the lens in sunlight, be sure to attach the lens caps.
• When shooting against the sun, keep the sun
completely out of the angle of view. Otherwise, solar
rays may be concentrated at a focal point inside
the camera, causing smoke or a fire. Keeping the
sun slightly out of the angle of view may also cause
smoke or a fire.
• When carrying a camera with the lens attached,
always firmly hold both the camera and the lens.
• Do not hold by the part of the lens that protrudes
when zooming.
• This lens is not water-proof, although designed with
dust-proofness and splash-proofness in mind. If using
in the rain etc., keep water drops away from the lens.
• If the lens alone is shaken or if a camera with the lens
attached is shaken while the camera is turned off,
an internal component of the lens may rattle. This,
however, does not indicate a malfunction.
In addition, while you carry around the lens, your
movement may cause the internal lens groups to
shake. This, however, does not affect the performance
of the lens groups.
Precautions on using a flash
• When using a flash, shoot at least 1 m (3.3 feet) away
from your subject.
• With certain combinations of lens and flash, the lens
may partially block the light of the flash, resulting
in a shadow at the bottom of the picture. In such a
case, adjust the focal length or the shooting distance
before shooting.
Vignetting
• When using the lens, the corners of the screen
become darker than the center. To reduce this
phenomena (called vignetting), close the aperture by
1 to 2 stops.

Attaching and Detaching the
Lens
• Before attaching/detaching the lens, hold the lens
by its mounting body. Do not hold it by any of its
operation controls, such as the zooming ring or the
focusing ring.
To attach the lens
(See illustration
ȏ
–
ȩ
.)
1
Remove the rear lens cap and the camera
body cap.
2
Align the white index on the lens barrel
with the white index on the camera
(mounting index), then insert the lens
into the camera mount and rotate it
clockwise until it locks.
• Do not press the lens release button on the
camera when mounting the lens.
• Do not mount the lens at an angle.
3
Remove the front lens cap.
• You can attach/detach the front lens cap in two
ways, (1) and (2).
To detach the lens
1
Attach the front lens cap.
2
While holding down the lens release
button on the camera, rotate the lens
counterclockwise until it stops, then
detach the lens. (See illustration

Ȑ
Preparing for Camera Shooting
Rotate the zooming ring until the focal-
length index comes within the focal-length
scale range (
Ƀ
) to extend the lens.
To retract the lens
(See illustration
Ȑ
–a.)
Rotate the zooming ring until the lens retraction
index reaches the focal-length index to retract the
lens.
Notes
• When the focal-length index is located outside of the
focal-length scale range
Ƀ
, images may not be shot
correctly.
• Depending on the camera in use, no warning appears
on the rear monitor/finder even though the image is
shot when the focal-length index is located outside of
the focal-length scale range.
In such a case, the consequences are as follows:
– The aperture value is fixed at F14.
– The lens is kept in manual focus mode, but focusing
with the focusing ring is disabled.
– In the Exif information of the image shot when the
focal-length index is located outside of the focal-
length scale range, “(Retract)” or “F0” is appended
at the end of the lens name.
ȑ
Zooming
Rotate the zooming ring to extend the
lens to the desired focal length (zooming
position) within the focal-length scale range.
Ȓ
Focusing
There are three ways to focus.
• Auto focus
The camera focuses automatically.
• DMF (Direct manual focus)
After the camera focuses in auto focus, you can
make a fine adjustment manually.
• Manual focus
You focus manually.
For details on mode settings, refer to the instruction
manual supplied with the camera.
