Excellent optical performance
Four aspherical elements and one ED (Extra low Dispersion) element in an innovative optical design achieve high resolution throughout a 16–50 mm zoom range (35 mm full-frame equivalent: 24–75 mm). Color bleeding is minimal, clarity is high, and smooth bokeh is available when needed. Min. focus at 0.25 m (0.82 ft) (wide)/0.30 m (0.99 ft) (tele) and 0.215x max. magnification offer versatile close-up performance that lets you move in and focus on details.
AF performance that brings out the best in advanced bodies
With an advanced linear motor and high-speed control, the E PZ 16–50 mm F3.5–5.6 OSS II makes it easier to photograph active children or animals at photogenic moments. Superior tracking performance supports the high-speed 120fps continuous shooting capability of high-performance α9 III, as well as 4K 120p/FHD 240p high frame rate movie recording. Focus is smooth, precise, and very quiet.
Advanced movie features
Smooth, quiet power zoom is ideal for movie shooting, and AF is available even while zooming. Built-in optical stabilization works with in-body stabilization, including Active Mode, to minimize blur in movies. Focus breathing is controlled to minimize shifts in angle of view while focusing for smooth, stable footage. Body breathing compensation is supported1, and metadata allows compensation during editing.
Compact and lightweight for outstanding agility and mobility
