Excellent Travel Lens
SEL24105G 07 June 2018 by Richard_S (United Kingdom)
The 24-105 f4 provides both a wide-angle view, to capture grand buildings inside and out, and telephoto reach, to compose portraits and pick out either built or natural landscape details, in one lens. Generally good lenses avoid the transition from truely-wide to usefully long like 24-70s which hardly go beyond normal. Lower quality lenses often offer great range but at a compromise - usually getting soft at the longer focal lengths. To get a decent picture with them means stopping down making the lens useless for isolating the foreground. If you want extreme separation in your headshots this is not the lens, but for contextual portraits where the face is pulled out from the background yet where the background is still recognisable; it is perfect. Every focal length is razor-cut sharp meaning your interiors, landscapes and portraits will all look top-notch. The sharpness at large apertures delivers great separation when you want it. At 24mm it goes just about as wide as you can without needing to use special care over composition. It feels heavy, because the camera and lens together seem physically small, but I have felt no hint of fatigue. A pair of primes would not be much lighter or indeed sharper but would necessitate regular changing. Physically this lens looks smart but not impressive - I think manufacturers who add a coloured ring know what they are doing because an optic like this is not cheap. The zoom takes some effort but is smooth. Vibration is wonderfully damped by the stabilisation although whether I should thank the lens or camera is hard to say. Controls all work fine - though I don't regularly focus manually. Before I bought this, I thought I would suffer the occasional frustration of not having wider or longer reach but to my surprise I rarely do. Maybe I step forward and back a little more without thinking. As I said in the title, this is an absolutely excellent travel lens, a keep-on-your-camera-all-day optic. It is also a superb social lens - for snapping parties and gatherings yet coming home with the most fantastic pictures. I use this lens on an A7 III.

Auto focus died after 3 years
SEL24105G 13 May 2021 by Tinkham (USA)
If you are considering buying this lens, think again. Many people have had problems with the auto focus dying. Now this happened to me. The lens is useless for my needs.

SEL24105G 23 October 2024 by LJLC (United Kingdom)
I've had this lens now for about 3 weeks, and mostly the UK weather has prevented me from using it. From my experience, (EX PRO), it seems so far to be good, and worth the money. I expect to get better results than this too, as soon as I get the chance.

Quality seems good but I find the lens movement up and down to be quite stiff. I am told this is normal by retailer - I'm not sure.

SEL24105G 17 August 2024 by Shadowsteve (United Kingdom)
An absolutely brilliant all round lens, ideally suited as an excellent travel lens or days out with the family. Easy to hand hold even at full zoom, and still get pin sharp results.

Really Good All Rounder
SEL24105G 08 August 2024 by Quoicher (United Kingdom)
I bought the A7 IV Camera and was looking for a lens that would cover a broad zoom range to prevent carrying multiple lenses. This Lens fits the bill perfectly. It is perfect for the landscape photos that I tend to take. It’s well balanced on the camera and is neither too bulky or heavy.

An Excellent First Lens For those new to Sony
SEL24105G 19 June 2024 by Priestoe (USA)
This a logical, economical first step into the world of Sony mirrorless. The focal length is perfect for a “walking around” lens. It’s got the sharpness to produce very acceptable results without the cost of GM lenes.

I bought this camera a few years ago. I have been happy with the quality of the lens and the usefulness of its's use. I mostly use it at the 70mm length as it is best for me at that range.

SEL24105G 03 March 2024 by Macca18279 (United Kingdom)
The lens is pretty heavy, autofocus isn't as fast as I thought it would be. Saying that when you do nail focus the pictures are incredible. Pretty much sharp corner to corner apart from when zooming in edges can soften but center is sharp.

SEL24105G 02 March 2024 by expateddie (United Kingdom)
Bought this as I wanted a lens with a bit more reach than the 24-70 (I had the 18-135 APSC lens before) and thought this was a good balance of size, cost and range. Very happy with this lens as it is sharper than my old lens and brighter than it too, without breaking the bank

Sony FE 24-105 F4 G Perfect Travel Lens
SEL24105G 03 February 2024 by Connecticut Old Man (USA)
The Sony FE 24-105 f4 G Lerns is the perfect companion for my Sony a7r iv. Excellent focal range. And when needed, a higher ISO eliminates the need for an aperture wider than F4. For travel or street photography, it's the only lens you need.

Excellent Travel lens
SEL24105G 12 January 2024 by DKC48 (USA)
I had a kit lens and upgraded to the SEL24105G OSS. What a difference in clarity, sharpness, and just a great range for carry around daily. Took it to Grand Canyon and Arches National Park this spring. I could not be more pleased with the performance. Weight is good, zoom is smooth and with just enough resistance, and manual focus is spot on!
