The Sony E PZ 18-105mm F4 G OSS covers a long range of focal lengths at a constant f/4 aperture, but it does so by making some compromises. If you shoot JPG or work with Raw files in Lightroom the distortion is largely a nonissue, but the lens does show some edge softness at its widest angle and...

5.8x zoom ratio; Optically stabilized; Power zoom design

Extreme pincushion distortion; Inconsistent sharpness; Big

Excellent portrait shots - due to center sharpness. Stopped down to "normal" landscape apertures (F/5.6 - 8.0), delivers excellent colors. Nothing to complain, actually.

Not extremely sharp

This 6x zoom lens sports a constant maximum aperture of f/4 throughout the zoom range, a powered zoom system with two separate controls, internal focusing and zoom and optical stabilisation.

Bought this a month ago with a6500, a day before for my 3 weeks west coast road trip. In which, i'm glad i did, with my limited knowledge with cameras and lenses, i was able to take astounding pictures be it portrait, landscape, or even at a low light environment such as the caverns, all i did is...

This lens is a great package. The Focal length, image quality, build quality and price all make this a lens I highly recommend. But when you shoot video, at some point you'll need to focus manually, and that's where this lens gets caught with it's pants down.

A great addition to the a6000 camera. Really adds range over the kit lens. Use the clear image zoom for even more telephoto range.

OSS for video. Range is great for most occasions. Price is very affordable

Size for a6000 body. Fly by wire focus

The Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4G OSS is the first Sony G Lens created specifically for E-mount cameras. This versatile lens covers approximately a 6x zoom range with a constant F/4 aperture.

After looking around for a replacement lens for the Kit 55-210 I got with my NEX-5N I opted for the E18-105. I didn't need the length of the old kit lens (got a Sigma beast for that) but something more suitable for travelling with especially for landscape work.

Consistent Output; Easily Interchangeable; Sharp Focus

I used this type of lens for a long time but it was borrowed. Now I have my own! Great, well-invented product, very useful for video recording. The quiet power zoom is very useful! I make wedding, event, dance and sports footage with it.

Bought this for my Sony A6400. Good quality lens, excellent performance. Definitely reccomend this product
