Wide angle zoom

Wide-angle impact over a useful zoom range

This compact wide-angle zoom lens covers a useful focal length range with outstanding image quality, particularly when matched with an α7 series full frame image sensor.

A 16mm to 35mm wide-angle zoom range coupled with effective built-in optical image stabilization makes this lens an excellent choice for snapshots, indoor scenes, group shots, landscapes, and more, especially with a full-frame α7 series body. The ZEISS Vario-Tessar configuration offers outstanding performance in a compact, lightweight design.

High performance optics

Refined optics deliver stunning images

AA (advanced aspherical), aspherical, and ED optical elements add up to superior corner-to-corner performance with low distortion and colour aberration. T coating minimizes flare and ghosting.

Superior clarity and minimum of distortion are achieved by an advanced optical design that includes one large AA element and three ED elements. The legendary ZEISS T (T-star) coating enhances performance even further by effectively suppressing reflections so that crisp, natural contrast is maintained, especially when shooting landscapes.

Constant F4 aperture

Constant exposure at any zoom setting

Maximum aperture is F4 at all focal lengths so the user can zoom and shoot at any aperture without having to keep track of changes in exposure settings or depth of field.

Constant aperture at all focal lengths means that the user can zoom and shoot at any aperture without having to worry about changes in exposure settings or depth of field, concentrating on the image rather than technical details. Maximum aperture is F4 through the zoom range.

Optical SteadyShot™

Sharp and clear in any situation

Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization compensates for camera shake that can blur images when shooting handheld, for sharp, clear night scenes and low-light indoor shots.

Built-in Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization compensates for camera shake that can blur images when shooting handheld. Sharp, clear night scenes or indoor shots in dim lighting can be captured without the need to boost ISO sensitivity and risk increased noise.

Lens Configuration

Legendary ZEISS quality manufactured and calibrated specifically for Sony imaging products. The T coating contributes to exquisite rendering and contrast.

MTF Chart

MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) describes how well a lens can reproduce fine details, measured as the degree of contrast achieved between finely spaced lines.

Reliable and easy in any conditions

Reliable operation in a variety of conditions is ensured by a design that prevents dust and moisture from entering the lens.

Sharp and clear from corner to corner

Aspherical lens technology maximises portability without sacrificing imaging power. The lens combines five aspherical elements (including one AA - advanced aspherical lens), with 3 ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements to deliver high-precision shots and breathtaking rendering - without the bulky design usually associated with similar DSLR lenses.
