Key features

• 16mm ultra-wide focal length – captures a very broad field of view, making it excellent for landscapes, architecture, interiors and dramatic perspectives.
• f/1.8 maximum aperture – provides strong low-light performance and allows more creative control over depth of field than typical ultra-wide lenses.
• Full-frame compatible – designed for Sony FE/full-frame cameras.
• G-series optical design – delivers high image quality with strong detail, contrast and controlled aberrations.
• Fast autofocus – suitable for both photography and video, including moving subjects.
• Excellent for astrophotography – the combination of 16mm and f/1.8 is particularly useful for capturing wide night-sky scenes.
• Compact and relatively lightweight – easier to carry than many professional ultra-wide zooms.
• Video-friendly – useful for vlogging, interiors and cinematic wide-angle shots.
