New 16-55mm f/2.8 lens tested at CameraLabs: “best quality general-purpose zoom to go with”

Share


E 16-55mm F2.8 G at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama, FocusCamera.

CameraLabs reviewed  the brand new

In my tests so far (and I hope to do more) the optical quality is outstanding in terms of detail across the frame at all focal lengths and aperture values, and while there are also solid options on rival systems, the Sony managed to out-perform them at least to some degree. Impressively it’s also smaller and lighter than most 16-55mm f2.8 lenses without compromising on build quality, and this is important when mounting it on one of Sony’s equally compact A6000 bodies – I’m relieved it didn’t feel unbalanced in use. But it’s also the most expensive 16-55mm f2.8 lens to date, a little pricier than the Fujifilm version, and much more so than the Canon and Nikon 17-55mm f2.8 DSLR models, although these are considerably older designs.

So the Sony E 16-55mm f2.8 is priced high, doesn’t have optical stabilization and again I wish it focused closer, but there’s no arguing with its quality and portability. Certainly the price will have you contemplating if now is the time to switch to full-frame, but if you’re sticking with a Sony APSC body and are looking for the best quality general-purpose zoom to go with it, the E 16-55mm f2.8 is the one for you and comes Highly Recommended.

Preorders:
Sony A6600 at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama, FocusCamera. In EU at Calumet DE, Park UK, WexUK.
Sony A6100  at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama, FocusCamera. In EU at Calumet DE, Park UK, WexUK.

(SR5) These are the four new Tamron FE lenses: 70-180mm, 20mm, 24mm and 35mm f/2.8

Share

These are the specs  of the four new Tamron FE lenses that will be announced in October:

– 70-180mm f/2.8
– 20mm f/2.8
– 24mm f/2.8
– 35mm f/2.8

All four lenses have relatively compact size but are reported to still have excellent image quality. Not going to doubt that statement having seen the quality of their first two lenses!

Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8 FE:
In the USA at BHphoto, Amazon, FocusCamera, BuyDig and Adorama.
In Europe it’s available at Amazon DE, Calumet DE, WexUK, Park UK, Amazon IT, Amazon FR, Amazon ES, CameraTools NL.

That’s an approximate size comparison with the Sony 70-200mm f/2.8:
