Sony PZ 16-50 /3.5-5.6 P / Sony-E lens

Retractable lens with electronic zoom

Great for travel, this lightweight, retractable mid-range zoom folds down to just 29.9mm. In addition, it includes an electronic zoom that allows its use smoothly, quietly and effortlessly.

In combination with Sony's E-mount α cameras, APS-C E-mount lenses achieve exceptional camera performance.

Electronic zoom for effortless control

When capturing photos or videos, an electronic zoom gives you total creative control. For convenience, some NEX cameras include a control oscillator.

Capture smooth, focused images

Optical SteadyShot ™ image stabilization built into the lens ensures sharp, focused images and videos when handheld.

Soft blur

Instead of the usual polygonal aperture, this lens has a 7-blade circular aperture for a more natural, rounded blur or 'bokeh'.

Refined optical performance

Aspherical lens elements minimize distortion while ED (ultra-low dispersion) glass elements provide superior levels of contrast, resolution and color realism.
