Sony FE PZ 28-135mm f/4 G OSS

A niche, well-regarded video and cine lens — smooth, silent servo zoom and a parfocal design (stays in focus through the zoom range) make it a favourite for run-and-gun and documentary shooters on Sony's cinema and hybrid mirrorless bodies, especially the a7S line. Not aimed at stills shooters.

📝 How suitability scores are calculated GearScore™ genre scores are calculated from this camera's verified specifications — autofocus, sensor, weight, weather sealing and more — weighted by what matters for each type of photography. Where a spec sheet misses something (e.g. a manual-focus rangefinder for street), we apply a documented editorial adjustment. Scores are not based on customer reviews. See our full methodology →
