The Sony FE 16-25mm f2.8 G Lens is a compact full-frame wide-angle zoom for α-series cameras. It covers focal lengths from ultra-wide 16mm to wide 25mm with a constant maximum aperture of F2.8. The lens suits scenery, cityscapes, travel and general snapshots, and it is also suited to movie shooting by hand, on gimbals or on drones.
The optical design uses three ED (Extra low Dispersion) glass elements and four aspherical elements, including one ED Aspherical element. This corrects spherical and chromatic aberrations and minimizes flare, ghosting and color bleeding. An 11-blade circular aperture unit produces smooth bokeh.
Two Linear Motors drive fast, quiet autofocus that tracks subjects at high frame rates for stills and movies. The lens has dedicated rings for focus, zoom and aperture, plus customizable buttons. Linear Response MF gives immediate manual focus control. Minimum focus distance is 17cm (6.72") at 16mm in manual focus.
