Sony’s brings you the world’s lightest full frame F4 wide-angle power-zoom lens at less than .08 lbs. Content creators seeking a unique balance of portability, image quality and power zoom flexibility with appreciate this compact lens. Fit for Sony Alpha E-mount Full-frame cameras, it is a great solution for photo and video on-the-go.
With the Sony PZ 16-35mm f4 Lens, all the zooming movements happen inside the lens body. This means your camera stays perfectly balanced — no matter the focal length. Two XD Linear Motors also deliver high thrust for quiet, low vibration autofocus while maintaining the compact lens dimensions. You can rely on this autofocus to track any subject while maintaining its high frame rate.
You can speedily alternate between auto and manual focus thanks to the AF/MF switch on the side of the lens. This makes operation faster and easier: You can either let the camera and lens focus for you, or decide to take matters into your own hands.
The lens has independent zoom, focus, and aperture rings for flexible creative control. Sony understands that a responsive zoom control is essential on professional photo and film sets. That’s why the Linear Response MF ensures that the focus ring responds directly to subtle control when focusing manually. The aperture ring has an aperture click switch that allows you to change aperture when needed — or lock it to avoid inadvertent changes.
Since the lens is not controlled by a traditional zoom ring, you can change zoom direction and zoom speed in the camera’s custom function settings. You can even control zoom wirelessly using a remote or the Sony smartphone app. Sony has provided content creators a new way to manage and execute their vision.
