What it frames
From 3 m back it takes in a scene about 2.9 m wide at 24 mm and 1 m wide at 70 mm on the a6400.
At its highest magnification, 0.27x, a subject about 8.7 cm wide fills the frame of the a6400. Its closest focus is 35 cm from the sensor; on a zoom that distance and the highest magnification can belong to different zoom settings.
