Review: Very versatile! - This is a lens that you could use for photography and videography. Its best characteristic is that it is versatile. It goes from 18mm all the way to 105mm which is a wide range of focal lengths. It is a lens that could live on your camera permanently, if your the guy that wants 1 lens to do everything. I think 18mm is a bit tight for vlogging but totally doable. Oss will help you tremendously, it works really well on this lens. Especially if you have an a6400 or other camera that doesn't have ibis. It has abconstantbaperture of F4. This is a blessing and a curse at the same time. It doesn't matter how much you zoom, the aperture remains the same so your image brightness will to. Though, at night you will not be able to use it as it can't let enough light through and the image will look soft and dark especially on video. It has a focus ring and a zoom ring. They are electronic, so you can spin them forever, there's nothing connecting them to the lens. The zoom ring can be used for small adjustments, but to use it for actual zoom, it takes a few rotations to zoom to 105. It has though, a power zoom buton that moves faster the further you push it(I think it has 3 phases). Very steady and a much better solution to zoom. Kinda heavy but for the size I think it's alright. Hard to hold it in a vlog position unless you have a tripod or a gimble, because you're probably going to touch the zoom ring or the power zoom button. If you'd have the sony handgrip, I'm not sure but it may be too small. The lens is long so it may feel front heavy. Background blur, not a lot at 18mm. If you zoom in a lot though, the background blur becomes conpressed and has a very very nice look. It is suitable for portraits at higher focal lengths, above 70mm I'd say. Maybe even 50mm, but with less background blur. During the day is stelar! So versatile! If you go vlogging with it, it gives so many opportunities, if you take it on a trip, you won't need any other lens. It does everything! Not great in low light but probably ok for a sunset. I paid £350 for it and it makes a lot of sense at that price. I will use it a lot for photography or day time videos. For vloggers, I'd rather recommend one of the 3 best lens: sony 10-18mm f4 oss, tamron 11-20mm f2.8 or Sigma 16mm f1.4. Sony 10-18 is a native lens so it works well but almost no background blur. Tamron has no stabilisation and sometimes the colours are a bit off, though great at everything else. Probably the best all-rounder wide angle lens for apsc. Sigma 16 mm f1.4 is a low light beast with excellent background blur. This having no zoom you'd say it's a bit of a compromise. If you have it on a Sony camera, I have the clear zoom custom key on the rubbish bin button. 2x zoom with no quality loss on any lens so.... 😅
Review: Exceptional quality and versatility for any shooter - In addition to its versatility, the Sony E PZ 18-105mm f/4.0 G lens excels in its optical performance. The advanced lens construction, featuring multiple aspherical and extra-low dispersion elements, effectively minimizes chromatic aberrations and distortions. This results in sharp, vibrant images with stunning detail, even at the edges. Whether I'm shooting in natural light or low-light conditions, this lens consistently delivers excellent image quality, allowing me to focus on creativity rather than technical limitations. ✅Pros✅ One of the standout features of this lens is its power zoom mechanism, which offers smooth and quiet operation. This is particularly advantageous for videographers, as it allows for effortless zoom adjustments without introducing distracting noise. The lens also incorporates a zoom lever, providing intuitive control for precise framing. Whether I’m shooting a dynamic event or capturing a serene landscape, the ability to zoom in and out fluidly has transformed how I approach my compositions. The Sony E PZ 18-105mm build quality is another reason I’ve made it a permanent fixture on my a6400. It feels solid and well-constructed, which inspires confidence during shoots, even in challenging conditions. The lens is also weather-sealed, offering protection against dust and moisture, which is invaluable for outdoor photography. Knowing I can rely on this lens in various environments allows me to push my creative boundaries without hesitation. ⭕Cons⭕ However, there are some downsides to consider. The constant f/4 aperture, while versatile, may limit low-light performance compared to lenses with wider apertures. Additionally, the lens can feel a bit bulky for those who prefer a more compact setup, especially when attached to smaller cameras like the a6400. Some users might also find the power zoom feature less responsive compared to traditional manual zooms, which could affect quick adjustments in fast-paced shooting situations. ⭐Finally, I appreciate the compact and lightweight design of the lens, which complements the a6400 perfectly. This combination makes it easy to carry on long shoots, ensuring that I’m always ready to capture the moment. Whether I’m on location or exploring new scenes, the E PZ 18-105mm f/4.0 G lens has proven to be an indispensable tool in my photography arsenal. For anyone serious about their craft, this lens is a worthy investment that delivers on its promise of performance and versatility.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great all rounder
*by R***G on 4 April 2017*

I mostly shoot video on my Sony a6300, so the constant f/4 aperture and OSS image stabilisation were the main reasons for choosing this lens. I've used it on multiple shoots and it's a great all rounder. Zoom and focus by wire functions take a bit of getting used to. If you're used to canon lenses it can feel a bit weird at first as there is a slight delay, your hand movement on the focus/zoom ring doesn't correlate exactly with what happens on the screen. However, the servo zoom function is good and quite sensitive, so it's easy to control the speed of the zoom. I've attached a video I shot completely with this lens. I used the Canon 24-105 f/4 for years and it's a great lens, i've moved over to Sony now so this was a logical choice at the price point. Also having the wider angle at 18mm is actually really useful. Before I would reach for the Canon 16-35 f/2.8 but I don't really have to now. Pixel peepers will definitely pick a few more flaws out at wider angles and sharpness in the corners, but honestly it's perfect for what I need. I've also used it with the Zhiyun crane, it works well, however you might prefer to turn OSS off as the two systems can interfere with each other. Still though, it's a great combo if you can't afford to buy separate prime lenses or just have that 'run n gun' shooting style. Happy to answer questions if anyone has them :)
