Questions & Answers
MORAD B : can you zoom in or out during long exposure? ThanksSVEN B : yes you can with the ring or the button on the side. It takes great photos. ITs great for events or as an all in one lens.EJ S : Yes! I just tested it. In and out both work. You can use the actual zoom ring or the power zoom trigger... The only problem is you can't see your image on the screen or through the viewfinder, so it might take some trial and error to get the correct amount of zoom you are going for.STEPHEN H : Havent used that camera in a while. very nice pictures with that lens.
REJAUL K : can I use this lens on a Sony a7RIII camers?THOMAS B : Try it out the Sony 18-105MM Lens the Camera store with your Sony 7R111.BERNADETTE I : Yes.JEREMY K : Yes. But I think it is a crop sense so for lower resolution.JOSEPH D : If used on a full body camera there will be vignetting as it wasn’t engineered to cover a full frame sensor.
TED T : Can this zoom lens utilize my A6500's clear image zoom feature?EJ S : I'm fairly certain it will work with the A6500 since it works on my much older NEX6. But I can't be 100% sure.

Perfect zoom range / sharp images
This is a good value lens from Sony. It competes well with the competition on features, image quality and even on price - yes a Sony lens at a good price and it is a G lens. The zoom and focus rings are a little light on turning - a bit more resistance would be nice but that is the only down side.

Quality build. Fair picture quality
I bought this product about 4 weeks ago, the product build is very good. I am disappointed with the picture quality the results are slightly blurred. Assistance with AI gets the desired results. I shoot in the RAW format and after using AI it saves as a JPEG, which defeats the object of using the RAW format in the first place. I acknowledge the Lens is not expensive but at this price I would expect reasonable picture quality.

Disappointing for photography.
I bought this a mont ago, but can't get used to the indirect delayed zoom. Also when i have digital zoom active as an quick option, the zoom on this lens just proceeds digital after 105 m. Further more for crispy photo's you always need to stop 1 down, else images are liveless and look unsharp with little contrast. So bought second hand 16-70 f4, and the 28-105 F4 is for sale.

Great all purpose lens!
Theres a lot packed into this lens! First, the zoom range is amazing and covers pretty much everything I would want in one lens for handheld use. The OSS helps keeps things steady and the power zoom is great for video work, especially when paired with a camera with a zoom switch like the FX30. It's small and light for such a varied focal length but the metal build stops it from feeling cheap. The zoom is internal which I definitely prefer over extending barrels with the zoom and focus rings being nicely dampened and smooth to use. Constant F4 aperture is a god send as I don't really like variable aperture zooms, fair enough if it's f2 to 2.8 like the tamron 35mm-150mm but not something naff like F4 to 7.1 (I'm looking at you canon!) Lastly, image quality and I have to say I'm pretty impressed here too! I wasn't expected too much but I'v managed to get some truly beautiful shots with this and the F30, enough to make both clients and myself happy. I use this for video work so keep that in mind if you are planning for photography but at this pice you really cant go wrong if you are looking for a nice 'all in one lens'

Fantastic lens that covers the range of most of my ENG shooting. Zoom is smooth, it's f4 through the full zoom and it's small and light. I love this lens.

Fabulous images from this very versatile lens. Combined with A6000 camera this makes for amazing quality photos. Very flexible range on zoom, this lens never leaves the camera.

Well pleased with purchase
Much better focal length range than standard length and amazed with the apature being constant F4 through out focal length. Picture very clear and sharp. Only small drawback is the shadow of the lens if the in built camera flash is used.

Looks the part, but mine was faulty
Initial reaction was favourable. Excellent speed and accuracy of focus and crisp image, but, and it's a massive one, there was intermittent issue causing selective vignetting to top left corner of frame only. All apertures, at any short focal length. Like something was sticking. Returned it. Not going to risk another. Disappointing qc. Will probably stick with kit lens on my a6000, and carry on lugging a DSLR for anything beyond that.

A great all round lens
We've owned it less than a year, and it is a very nice versatile lens, build quality as with anything could be a little better as ours developed a fault after 8 months of usage - which appears to be a common issue where the lens does not focus when the camera is pointed downwards and then turned on.

The best Sony budget zoom video lens.
If you are a 'run & gun' shooter and you need good wide-angle/zoom lens for video don't think twice. Buy this one. excellent on gimbal.

Constant f4 is cool, but the moto zoom not so much
It is a nice lens all in all, but f4 is a bit too small for indoor, and the moto zoom is not easy to operate - sliding it causes movement. Why not buttons? Or why not use a camera menu to zoom? Also, using a remote control is not that convenient either. Eventually, I sold mine and replaced it with 18-135mm, which I am happy with it. Sony recently added a f2.8 zoom, but the price! Come on.

Good general purpose lens
By Whaty
I bought this lens to go with my Sony A5100. I have a number of primes but wanted something a little more versatile and covering a wider range, for those times when you don't want to carry several lenses around with you, the 18-105 fitted my requirements perfectly. In my opinion the IQ is generally better all round than the 16-50 kit lens, and of course it has a much wider range. It is a large lens, especially when mounted on the A5100, but somehow it works and it doesn't feel to front heavy,...

Just what my A6000 needed!
By Luigi_03
The Sony SELp 18-105mm is a solidly-built lens, but not a particularly heavy one; is optically excellent, as you would expect in a G-class lens, and zooms quietly and smoothly from wide-angle to mid-range telephoto under your camera's control. Its zoom range makes it an ideal choice for portraits, and also for street photography, architectural features, art, sculpture and buildings. The constant F4 aperture provides excellent depth of field control, and makes the most of whatever ambient ligh...

This innovative lens is designed to deliver powerful contrasts and outstanding clarity, thanks to its sophisticated optical design featuring aspherical lens elements and extra-low dispersion glass. These elements work in harmony to reduce ghosting, flare, and chromatic aberrations, ensuring your images are crisp and vibrant.
The lens's expansive zoom range from a wide 18mm to a medium telephoto 105mm allows you to capture everything from sweeping landscapes to detailed portraits with a single, fast zoom lens. The constant f/4 maximum aperture across the entire zoom range ensures consistent exposure and depth of field control, enabling you to maintain fast shutter speeds even in low-light conditions.
For filmmakers and videographers, the E PZ 18-105mm f/4.0 G OSS Lens includes a powered zoom feature that is whisper-quiet, perfect for capturing high-quality video without the distraction of lens noise. The floating axis construction, a technology borrowed from Handycam camcorders, ensures exceptionally smooth, quiet focus and zoom operation, making it an ideal choice for both stills and motion picture capture.
Manual focus is accessible throughout the zoom range, even when the camera is in operation, allowing for precise shot tracking and creative control. The internal focusing mechanism keeps the lens's overall length consistent during use, adding to the ease of handling and stability.
Built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization is a game-changer, significantly reducing image blur by automatically compensating for camera shake. This feature is particularly effective in challenging low-light conditions, allowing you to capture sharp, clear images without the need to increase ISO sensitivity.
The lens's circular aperture design contributes to beautiful bokeh, enhancing the visual impact of your images by rendering out-of-focus areas with a pleasing aesthetic quality. Whether you're shooting stills or video, the E PZ 18-105mm f/4.0 G OSS Lens is equipped to provide expressive imaging options across its entire zoom range.
