Great travel lens
kano0668 Posted
Great travel lens. Bought it to take to my Italy trip. Needed something small, light weight with wide angle to capture the great scenery. Expensive but compared to other lenses with the similar focal length, it's the best choice. Great quality. Pictures comes out sharp.
I would recommend this to a friend - Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Great Sony G lens
Keith Posted
[Employee of bestbuy] Fantastic lens. Perfect size with a lot of versatility. Was just what I needed for landscape. Decent for portraits too but not enough bokeh to justify.

This is a great lens for taking real estate photos, or shooting videos where you need to capture a wider angle. It also has some great features like power zoom. Would recommend.

Great option for this focal range!
RickyG Posted
This lens is a great value for the price. The EZ is the best and most natural feeling electric zoom I’ve used. I haven’t used any other lens in this focal range, but I ended up going for this one because F4 wasn’t an issue for me. Try watching youtube reviews on some comparisons to get a better idea on the performance of this lens. I would highly recommend this lens for anyone who doesn’t need anything with a lower aperture!

Perfect lightweight lens
Tuan Posted
Perfect walkaround lens. Great for landscape and for street photography. Super sharp corner to corner thought the focal length. This lens is targeted for video but love this for photography. Very lightweight and perfectly balanced on my Sony A9 camera.

Light weight and perfect for gimbals
JosephL Posted
Excellent lens! This lens is much lighter than the original 16 to 35 T Sony e mount lens. If you were using this lens on a gimbal it is a must buy!

The lightest F4 16-35
The lightest F4 16-35 mm for full frame in the market! It is one of the best when it comes to portability and usability!

Hi MrDuendi,
Sony commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority.
At 12.5oz, the SELP1635 would really be one of the lightest full-frame lens. An ultralight compact G lens with fast, precise, and quiet AF and tracking capabilities.
Thanks for this feedback.

Low contrast and huge flares.
Oleg Posted
Convenient light power zoom lens, but..... The contrast is not good. Huge distracting flares. Lens hood is no help in reducing flares. If the sun is above, the contrast will decrease and you will see flares all over. Make sure the sun is always behind. The lens is usable, considering that I got it at OpenBox price. it has some limitations, but can be manageable if the light source is behind. The attached screenshot shows reduced contrast when the light source is above. The image was taken at 11 am at F4 24mm.

Perfect for Gimbals — Sharp, Lightweight, and Cine
Carlos123 Posted
Gimbal and this thing — chef’s kiss. The Sony 16–35mm F4 G is a perfect combo for weddings and events. It’s super lightweight, balances beautifully on a gimbal, and delivers sharp, clean images with great color and contrast. The power zoom is smooth for video work, and autofocus is fast and silent. It gives a professional, cinematic look without the weight of an f/2.8 lens. Highly recommend for hybrid shooters who need reliability and versatility.

Best 16-35F4 Out There
Simon Posted
Very light lens (in a good way). I feel like I’d keep it on the camera the most from now on. It’s sharp, extremely fast focus, and silent. It is also well balanced on the camera. Very easy to move with it. I guess that’s what they claim about it being good for gimbals, but I don’t have a gimbal to compare. The bokeh is good if you get very close to the subject. If you need 16-35 and don’t mind F4, this lens is the best. Don’t forget the video which all other lenses in this category have issues with.

This is what i needed!
Resilentos Posted
I love it! Before buying this, I purchased the GMII version, double the price and heavier, and I was looking for something lighter with quality, and this lens delivered. The F4 could be an issue for many people, but quality speaking, is very similar to the GMII IMO. Good luck!
