Have only done some limited testing with this lens so far on Sony FS5 but very pleased with image quality, lack of breathing and par focus.

Working with a lens that has focus and iris control like on a big ENG lens is so pleasant! The Zacuto rig completes it very nice.

I bought the fs7 and E PZ 18-110mm f4 lens a month ago I think the picture and ease of use are excellent. It took me little time to get used to the use of both and I am extremly happy with the results

Good lens, servo works well. Bokeh isnt great and the lens isnt very fast.

Coming from the EX1r, the FS5 was a good step up in quality with 4k and 4:2:2 HD video, but I missed the the versatility of the EX1rs zoom lens. The Sony 18-110 fixed that. Couple that with the camera's Center Scan and you have a 18-200mm lens! Yes, it is slower, f4 vs f1.8, BUT the camera is also more sensitive, so it is a wash. For run and gun shooting this lens is just terrific. Having come from the EX1r, it operates in exactly the same way which means that my muscle memory kicks in. It is parfocal and manually zooms like the EX1r lens, which is great and has a servo zoom, which gives you two speeds: medium and slow. The medium speed is not super smooth, but it it is workable. The slow speed is much smoother than the EX1rs zoom. The lens is also very sharp with good contrast and bokeh. The lens is not heavy, though it does make the FS5 somewhat front heavy, but I can still hand hold it if I want to. It is a great addition to this camera! Good job Sony!

I must say I ordered this lens just a day or two before the Fuji 18-55mm was announced. My first thought was to just send the Sony back and preorder the Fuji, but my mind was changed the instant I put this lens on the camera to test it. This lens has amazing optical performance. I have worked on many high end sets that use Alexa and Red matched with $+ zooms including Fuji glass and I would say this lens paired with my FS5 nets me with the same look and style. With a LUT applied I doubt most would be pressed to tell the footage apart from the big boys. Wide open this lens is sharp, contrasts and clean of chromatic aberrations. The bokeh is very smooth and pleasing. While some people see F/4 at a limiting factor of the lens I found it to be fast enough for low light and just the right amount of Depth of Field. I think at the end of the day the image stabilization, autofocus, and longer all-in-one zoom range will be what really gives this lens the edge over the Fuji.

The lens is lighter than I expected but I come from the broadcast end of the industry not the stills end. The operation of the focus, zoom and iris rings are silky smooth with plenty of travel all of which is a must for ENG/EFP needs. I am continually frustrated with my stills lenses adapted to my FS7 on these two points. Build quality seems solid and there is no rocking at the mount. Hand grip zooms. With 4.10 firmware installed on my FS7 and test charts in hand I tested several aspects on my first outing. I noticed straight away that achieving a smooth, ramped and feathered zoom was easy with this lens. Perhaps a product of the new firmware. But pressing the handgrip rocker full throttle reveals a full second delay in response. Not a speed demon but I can live with it if this is the tradeoff for smooth ramping zooms. Auto focus is tack on with no front focus or back focus issues in exterior sunny day according to the autofocus chart. Not as fast as a 1/4 sensor camera but that stands to reason. The auto focus does like contrast. It had difficulty with the red tail light and silver paint of my truck. It hunted for a while before it locked in. The real test will be shooting sports. I’ll see if the neighbor kids will accommodate me. Parfocal. Shooting a focus chart in manual and auto focus I can say that my copy of this lens is parfocal in BOTH modes. This is brilliant! And the lens has very little breathing. Color clarity is neutral to my eye. I see no flare or tinting. Sharpness is amazing compared to the zoom lenses I currently own for the FS7. Shooting bare fine tree limbs and high voltage power lines with bright white insulators against a blue sky while zooming in and out the lens maintains sharpness throughout. The center and corners remained sharply defined in both auto and manual focus. As well as with the test chart. Normal and Center Cut Mode tested. Center Cut only slightly soft. Chromatic aberration was imperceptible. Looking at the same scene from above and critically looking at the steel support wire for the high voltage lines that run left to right through the frame I can see no CA at all. And no ringing around the center wire separator. No CA difference in Center Cut Mode. Slight barreling at full wide is noticeable. Maybe 10% distortion. I’m no expert at grading this. All I can say is it is not as bad as my Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 EX DC OS HSM. And not as bad as my VERY expensive Fujinon 4.5 wide angle B4 mount ENG lens. It is only noticeable with vertical lines. The distortion begins pretty quickly off center. Maybe 20% off center and I notice vertical lines begin bending in center. Interestingly, the barreling doesn’t increase all that much towards the outer edge once it shows up 20% beyond center. I definately wish this lens had greater zoom range but for what it is, the price point can't be beat. The picture performance reflected on my Flanders monitor is outstanding. I'm not going to shoot wildlife with this or football from the stands but for news, run and gun, live medium range events, etc. this will be my go to lens. This lens is a keeper. I couldn't be happier with the sharpness, lack of CA and integration with the camera electronics. Here is some basic test footage. https://youtu.be/Bji3jkqZgZo Kent PMCSTUDIOS
