Sony Vario-Tessar T* FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS Lens for E-mount Summary
This full frame E-mount Vario-Tessar T* FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS zoom lens offers strong performance in a compact, lightweight package. A versatile zoom range coupled with built-in optical image stabilisation makes it a great choice for snapshots, indoor scenes, group shots, landscapes and more, especially with a full-frame 7 series camera body. A constant F/4 maximum aperture facilitates a good degree of exposure and depth-of-field control, whilst landscape, cityscape and interiors will be rendered with a greater depth of field when the lens is stopped down.
Key features:
- Compact and lightweight option with an ultra wide zoom angle
- Advanced lens design with special elements render high resolution and detail
- Optical stabilisation provides sharper handheld results
- Short minimum focus distance of 0.28m provides compositional options
Wide-angle impact over a useful zoom range
A 16mm to 35mm ultra wide-angle zoom range coupled with effective built-in optical image stabilisation makes this lens an excellent choice for snapshots, indoor scenes, group shots, landscapes, and more, especially with a full-frame 7 series body. The ZEISS Vario-Tessar configuration offers outstanding performance in a compact, lightweight design.
Refined optics deliver stunning images
Superior clarity and minimum of distortion are achieved by an advanced optical design that includes one large AA element and three ED elements. The legendary ZEISS T* (T-star) coating enhances performance even further by effectively suppressing reflections so that crisp, natural contrast is maintained, especially when shooting landscapes and provides incredibly results on any full frame Sony camera.
Constant exposure at any zoom setting
Constant aperture at all focal lengths means that the user can zoom and shoot at any aperture without having to worry about changes in exposure settings or depth of field, concentrating on the image rather than technical details. Maximum aperture is F/4 through the zoom range.
Sharp and clear in any situation
Built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilisation compensates for camera shake that can blur images when shooting handheld. Sharp, clear night scenes or indoor shots in dim lighting can be captured without the need to boost ISO sensitivity and risk increased noise.
Sharp and clear from corner to corner
Aspherical lens technology maximises portability without sacrificing imaging power. The lens combines five aspherical elements (including one AA - advanced aspherical lens), with 3 ED (extra-low Dispersion) glass elements to deliver high-precision shots and breathtaking rendering without the bulky design for which e-mount lenses are loved.
Reliable and easy in any conditions
Reliable operation in a variety of conditions is ensured by a design that prevents dust and moisture from entering the lens.

Our Verdict
The Sony Vario-Tessar T* FE 16-35mm F4 ZA OSS Lens is a highly proficient ultra wide angle zoom lens. Excellent optical quality and weather sealed construction is matched with a constant f/4 maximum aperture throughout the zoom range. This affords photographers shooting a variety of subjects, both indoors and out a compact zoom with ultra wide focal range to shoot handheld when required. Sony does make the FE 16-35mm f/2.8 G Master lens with a wider aperture however this is course comes at a cost with a higher price tag and extra weight.
With ZEISS optical quality including the effective T* coating results from this model are well beautiful, with accurate colour rendition and well controlled flare and ghosting. Resolving power is also excellent when mounted on any camera with a high resolution sensor. Users who like to handhold and photograph using available light benefit from optical steady shot as well as in-camera stabilisation which many bodies now offer. The results are impressive and save many images from shake. Many happy owners review this lens as a brilliant model for ultra wide photography in a very compact form that also offers close-up capabilities for extra versatility.
