How can I determine if my Sony Emount lens is full amp?

I think the full frame lenses are FE and not just E.

Thank you so much. Now I know my lense isn't full frame and will use it on my Sony 6000

If you put it on a full frame camera and get a big vignette....

You can use FE lenses on crop sensor e-mount cameras.

Is it a specific lens?

That is true maybe 50% of the time, Depending on your menu settings. My FF Sony cameras are set (in the menu) to auto upscale DT and E lenses to Super 35 and they look exactly the same in the viewfinder as FF lenses without any vignette. The beauty of Sony Cameras is that lenses are interchangeable on Emount cameras. I can use my FF (FE) lenses on either the a7 and a9 series on any new, a5000 or a6000 series camera. Then I can also use any APS-C ( E ) series lens from the a5000 and a6000 on a FF a7xxx or a9xx camera.

That is cool! If only it upscaled the resolution, too.

Only through swamp gas and mirrors can you upscale resolution. Or in old terms. You just can't make a silk purse out of a sows ear.
