The details
At a glance: Sony E 16mm f/2.8 - compact pancake wide prime for Sony E-mount APS-C, 24mm-equivalent.
About this lens
The Sony E 16mm f/2.8 is one of the original Sony E-mount APS-C primes - a compact pancake-style wide-angle prime for Sony's NEX and Alpha APS-C mirrorless cameras. At 16mm on APS-C it gives a 24mm full-frame equivalent - classic wide-angle for landscape, architecture and street photography.
Build & handling
| Sensor coverage | APS-C |
|---|---|
| Autofocus | In-lens motor |
| Image stabilisation | No |
| Minimum focus distance | 0.24m |
| Filter thread | 49mm |
| Weight | 70g |
| Construction | Pancake design, aspherical element, accepts Sony VCL-ECU1 ultra-wide and VCL-ECF1 fisheye converters |
Works with
- Sony E-mount APS-C mirrorless (A6x00 series, ZV-E10, NEX series)
- Not designed for Sony FE full-frame (APS-C crop mode only)
Best for
A small, light pancake-style prime from Sony's original NEX lineup. At 70g it's barely noticeable on a camera body - useful for a truly compact travel/street setup. Optical performance is adequate rather than outstanding. Of interest: accepts screw-on conversion lenses (ultra-wide and fisheye) for extended creative options.
Frequently asked questions
Will it work on a Sony full-frame A7?
Yes but in APS-C crop mode - the lens doesn't cover the full-frame sensor, so you'd lose resolution.
Does this lens have image stabilisation?
No — this lens does not have image stabilisation.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
