Focus is maintained precisely and consistently over a wide range, even at shallow depth of field or when tracking fast-moving subjects with real-time tracking. Stable AF and flexible focusing are available for a variety of shooting situations. AF Assist, Focus Map, and Breathing Compensation are great assist features.

Compact and cage-less design:

The new ILME-FX30 has a compact and lightweight shape designed for portability and efficiency. The body has five threaded holes for accessories, eliminating the need for a cage for optimal flexibility, stability and comfort. Built-in stabilization keeps the entire setup highly mobile and can be used in difficult shooting situations without a gimbal.

Quickly access your favorite elements with the new main menu. Focus on composition and framing with the optimized standby mode for movie shooting. Shooting lights and highlighted shooting indicators provide clear confirmation of the shot in progress. Flexible, high-resolution touchscreen LCD monitor allows wide positioning and compositional freedom for gimbal shooting. Zoom lever controls compatible motorized zoom lenses and enables use of Clear Image Zoom with non-motorized zoom and fixed focal lengths with excellent image quality. Auto and manual modes for aperture, shutter speed and ISO can be set independently for flexible exposure modes. Vertical side markers to check image framing in horizontal orientation.

Highly Expandable:

With an optional XLR microphone and XLR handle, digital audio can be transmitted directly to the camera for superior audio quality with a very clean audio signal. Other connections include USB Type-C®, multi/micro USB, microphone, headphones, and a Multi Interface Shoe with built-in digital audio interface. All of these connectivity options provide broad expandability for a variety of recording needs. The ILME-FX30 also supports UVC (USB Video Class) and UAC (USB Audio Class) standards, and can be connected to a compatible device via USB to serve as a high-performance webcam.

The Best Experience with Sony Lenses:

The wide-angle zoom for Sony full-frame cameras with constant F4 aperture not only offers first-class image quality and a powerful zoom, but is also extremely portable with its weight of only 353g and is therefore ideally suited for content creation and vlogging!

Powerful autofocus

With four XD (Extreme Dynamic) linear motors, the Sony SEL 16-35mm f/4.0 G PZ's autofocus is extremely fast and precise. It also improves zoom performance - it is smooth and tracks subjects evenly. Another advantage is that the barrel does not extend when zooming, so the Lens retains its compact size. Focus breathing is virtually non-existent, a factor that is especially important when shooting video.

Outstanding sharpness

The Sony SEL 16-35mm f/4.0 G PZ is equipped with two AA elements, one ED (extra low dispersion), one Super ED element, which ensures absolutely top-notch image quality. Ghost images, chromatic aberrations and other disturbing factors are thus a thing of the past! Whether shooting stills, videography or content creation, this full-frame wide-angle lens delivers the best results for any use.

Creamy soft bokeh with the Sony SEL 16-35mm f/4.0

The Sony SEL 16-35mm f/4.0 G PZ E-mount offers beautiful, circular bokeh thanks to its 7 built-in aperture blades. Furthermore, the aperture can be controlled via the aperture ring.

Close focus distance of the Sony SEL 16-35mm f/4.0 G PZ

The closest focusing distance of this wide-angle zoom is 24cm and has a maximum magnification of 1:4.3.

Super compact, without compromise

Super compact without compromising the quality! The SELP1635G G Lens from Sony only weighs 353g, with a length of not even 9cm. So not only is it easy to store and ideal to carry around for a long time, but it's also very well balanced. This also makes gimbal video shooting a breeze!

Versatile functions & the glass coatings

In addition to dust and moisture resistance, the Sony SEl 16-35mm f/4.0 G PZ features a fluorine coating. This means that external influences such as water, oil or other contamination are no longer a problem; so no matter what the application or circumstances, you can always concentrate fully on taking photos. To further facilitate your operation and make it more efficient, the wide-angle lens is equipped with a zoom, focus and aperture ring. Depending on your preference, the click stops of the aperture can be turned on and off via a switch. Furthermore, there is still an AF-MF switch, a zoom lever, as well as an aperture lock and a configurable focus hold button.
