Pros and cons

According to our camera lens expert
  • With the zoom button on the lens, you can zoom in and out with 1 smooth motion.
  • The light intensity remains the same while you zoom in, so you can take freehand photos for a longer period.
  • Thanks to the large aperture, you separate your subject from the background.
  • The lens doesn't have seals that make it dustproof.

Description

The Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4 G OSS is a lens with E-mount for Sony cameras with an APS-C sensor. This lens is suitable for both photographers and filmmakers. With the zoom button on the lens, you can zoom in and out with 1 smooth motion. That way, you can still firmly hold the camera. The light intensity remains the same over all focal lengths, so you can easily capture closeups and images with a wide viewing angle back to back. On top of that, the maximum aperture of f/4 ensures a lot of depth of field. The image stabilization prevents shaky images, so you can easily take freehand photos.

Quality!

  • Very sharp photos

  • Large zoom range
  • Kind of big

Bought to replace the kit lens of the Sony alpha6000.
In terms of quality, the lens belongs in a different category than that kit lens. A lot of detail, I only now really see what the alpha6000 is capable of.

Works well, zooming can be done manually and with a motor, I personally prefer manual.

Due to the larger zoom range, from wide angle to telephoto, and the constant quality over almost the entire range, I hardly need any more lenses.

A big case and not really light. I don't have any problems with it myself, it still fits well in the bag.

Photos are very sharp even at maximum zoom. Recommended.

Quality lens for a decent price

  • high build quality compact lens
  • constant brightness F4 over the entire zoom range
  • maintains constant length when buzzing
  • brightness sometimes too limited for indoor shots

I bought this lens for the Sony Nex-VG30 video camera.
The big advantages of this lens are the decent brightness (F 4) that remains constant over the entire pedunculate, and the fact that the lens is compact and relatively light.
I use this lens for video recordings and the lens functions very well. The image quality is excellent (it is also a Sony G lens) and the focus is as quiet as a mouse. When zooming (manually or with a built-in motor), the lenses move internally in the body so that the length of the lens remains constant.
The zoom and focus rings are easy to operate, but are 'endless', i.e. you can keep turning them even if the focus/zoom has reached the end of its range. This is a disadvantage, because it also means that indications of distance or aperture opening are missing on the lens rings.
For indoor shots without additional lighting, the brightness of F4 is often on the weak side, but for outdoor shots it provides enough light to film at low gains/ISOs.
The build quality of this lens is very decent and it feels very solid.

Truly a POWERzoom!

  • sharp
  • Super autofocus
  • constant aperture
  • big

As an experienced hobby photographer, who takes the most portrait photos, this is an ideal lens for me. Why? You can easily achieve the right focal lengths for this with this lens, the area between 60 mm and 80 mm (not counting the magnification factor of aps-c). Add to this the constant aperture of F4 and this ensures fine portraits that deliver beautiful out-of-focus backgrounds. The advantage over a fixed focal length lens is that you also have a decent wide angle at your disposal. This makes this lens suitable for shooting landscapes, for example.

I experience the sharpness at every focal length as good to excellent. The edges at aperture F4 are also very usable. I also have a number of primes with F1.8 as the fastest aperture. When I compare the photos, you have to search very carefully at the pixel peeper level to see any difference in sharpness. The autofocus of the lens is simply super. Noiseless and lightning fast! The zoom button on the side is ideal for the videographers among us. It ensures thorough and precise zooming in and out when filming. I use the lens on a Sony a6000, which makes the combination of autofocus a real joy.

Many reviews on the Internet give as a negative point the strong pin cushion deviation or a distortion of the image. I actually didn't experience this that way because my camera automatically performs a correction for this. In fact, you can't even turn it off! That is, if you have the correct and most current firmware on your camera. If this is the case, then you don't have to worry about it. All e-mount cameras have this feature. This is a different story for video cameras, which makes this lens less suitable for this target group.

There are drawbacks. The lens is large for the average small e-mount cameras. It feels a bit out of balance because of that. For example, the 18-200 is smaller and lighter but has a longer range. That could be a second drawback, the maximum zoom is 105 mm (again without taking the demand factor into account). On the other hand, you do have a constant aperture of F4 at your disposal and candlestick 18-200 can't match that!

All in all, a POWERzoom that can rightly be called that.
