Sony E PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS Lens (Black)
The Sony E PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS is the ultimate “everyday” power zoom for Sony APS-C mirrorless cameras. Combining a versatile 24-75mm (35mm equivalent) focal range with a unique retractable design, this lens offers full-frame-quality perspectives in a package that fits easily into a jacket pocket or small travel bag.

Ultra-Compact Retractable Design
Pocketable Form Factor: When powered off, the lens retracts to a fraction of its operational size. This makes it an ideal companion for compact bodies like the a6000-series or ZV-series, keeping your entire setup sleek and manageable.

Variable Aperture: The f/3.5-5.6 design allows for an incredibly lightweight build without sacrificing the essential focal lengths needed for everything from wide landscapes to flattering portraits.

Precision Optics & Image Quality
Advanced Elements: The optical layout features four aspherical elements to combat distortion and field curvature, alongside one Extra-low Dispersion (ED) element to eliminate chromatic aberrations for crisp, color-neutral results.

Smooth Bokeh: A rounded seven-blade diaphragm produces a pleasing, natural background blur when working with shallow depth-of-field techniques.

Built for Video & Handheld Shooting
Power Zoom (PZ) Mechanism: Experience smooth, fluid zooming that is perfect for cinematography. The electronic zoom can be controlled via the integrated lens switch or through compatible camera bodies and remotes.

Optical SteadyShot (OSS): Built-in image stabilization compensates for camera shake, allowing you to capture sharp stills and steady video at slower shutter speeds. It also works in harmony with cameras featuring In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS).

Fast, Close Focusing: The internal focus design ensures rapid, quiet autofocus performance. With a minimum focus distance of just 9.8″, it is highly capable for close-up subject work and vlogging.
