A sleek and powerful wide-angle zoom designed for E-mount mirrorless cameras, the FE 16-25mm f/2.8 G Lens from Sony is an excellent on-the-go lens that specializes in landscape, travel, and close-up photography. By coupling a maximum f/2.8 aperture with an 11-bladed diaphragm, a smooth and beautiful bokeh is naturally created. The de-clickable aperture ring is a massive benefit to video shooters to ensure smooth transitions. For making quick adjustments while shooting, three control rings are available: focus, zoom, and aperture. The aperture ring has the option of being set to click to provide tactile feedback when capturing photos, or it can be turned off to give you smooth, silent control while shooting video.
