Sony’s first 16-55 mm (24-82.5 mm full-frame equiv.) APS-C zoom with a constant F2.8 aperture is remarkably compact while offering performance befitting the G lens series. A new optical design delivers excellent corner-to-corner resolution, and beautiful bokeh is available when needed. It is compact, lightweight, and ideal for a wide range of subjects. Sony’s original Nano AR coating adds superior resistance to flare and ghosting for crisp contrast. Precise spherical aberration control and a 9-blade Circular aperture contribute to smooth bokeh. This fine lens is ideal for everything from portraits to everyday snapshots, combining with compact E-mount bodies to form a highly mobile, manageable system for a wide range of photographic applications.
INCREDIBLY SHARP: Two AA (advanced aspherical) and two aspherical elements suppress aberration for outstanding corner-to-corner resolution, while three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements reduce color bleeding to a minimum
BEAUTIFULLY SMOOTH BACKGROUNDS: Smooth bokeh is supported by a 9-blade circular aperture mechanism with natural looking results
ALWAYS RELIABLE: A dust and moisture resistant design provides the reliability needed for outdoor use in challenging conditions.
FAST AND PRECISE: The XD Linear Motor fully utilises the speed potential of the camera body, focusing on and tracking even fast-moving subjects with outstanding speed and precision
CONVENIENT ERGONOMICS: A focus mode switch that allows instant switching between auto and manual focus modes along with a customisable focus hold button for efficient and versatile shooting
