Sony
The Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4 G OSS is a versatile all-in-one zoom designed with both photographers and videographers in mind. Its constant f/4 maximum aperture across the entire focal range provides predictable exposure and depth-of-field control when zooming, which is particularly valuable for video work and for photographers who need consistent performance between wide and tele settings. The lens features a power-zoom mechanism that allows smooth, controlled zoom ramps for filmmaking, while Optical SteadyShot stabilization and a quiet Direct Drive Super Sonic wave Motor (DDSSM) deliver steady, low-noise autofocus and image stabilization. Optical design includes ED elements and multiple asphericals to control distortion and chromatic aberration, and a rounded 9-blade diaphragm contributes to pleasing out-of-focus highlights. With a working minimum focus distance of about 0.45 m and practical dimensions, the 18-105mm is a pragmatic choice for travel, run-and-gun video, documentary work and everyday walkaround use on APS-C E-mount systems, offering a strong balance of performance, handling and video-friendly features in a single lens.
