Sony DT 16-105mm f/3.5-5.6 Review

Not many standard zooms extend to focal lengths in excess of 100mm, and the fact that this lens manages such a feat in a package that is no larger than Sony's companion 16-80mm ZA makes it worthy of serious attention.
Pros:
  • Good short-end resolution from f/5.6
Cons:
  • Poor resolution at longer focal lengths after f/11

My mistake

I thought the autofocus would work with my A7Rii camera with adaptor but I was wrong, I was reimbursed very quickly by them thanks.

very nice lens

I'm just getting used to this lens. I mount it on the sony a65. Previously I've had the 16-50 fixed f-stop. (which I Love) on my a65. The 16-105 is a fast focus and very sharp. It increases the range, and is a well-built lens. I will use it for landscape and possibly portraits.

Solid performance

I bought this lens to go with my Alpha 57, which was stolen, alas. I now use it with an Alpha 65. It gives good performance throughout the range and is good value money. It is an excellent replacement for the kit zoom, giving a step up in image quality. A bit heavy though.
