What it frames
From 3 m back it takes in a scene about 1.2 m wide at 60 mm and 0.4 m wide at 180 mm on the a6400.
At its highest magnification, 0.26x, a subject about 9 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.
