Vario-Tessar T* E 16-70mm F4 ZA OSS

ZEISS quality in a compact, versatile zoom
This mid-range zoom combines class-leading ZEISS optics with the legendary T* coating, offering a compact and convenient solution for a wide range of subjects.

In addition, with a zoom range of 16mm to 70mm, it covers most shooting situations, making it an ideal choice for everyday photography or moviemaking.

Refined optics deliver stunning images
Four aspherical elements, including one AA element, work together with an ED glass element to produce breathtaking rendering.

Moreover, a linear motor ensures smooth, quiet operation, which is ideal for both movies and stills. Additionally, the T* coating further enhances performance by effectively suppressing reflections, maintaining crisp, natural contrast.

Constant exposure at any zoom setting
With a constant F4 maximum aperture across the zoom range, this lens ensures consistent exposure settings at any focal length. As a result, it also improves low-light capability.

Thus, you can focus on the image rather than worrying about aperture-related exposure variations while zooming.

Always sharp and clear
Thanks to the built-in Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization, the lens compensates for camera shake, reducing blur during handheld shooting.

Consequently, you can capture sharp, clear night scenes or indoor shots in dim lighting without increasing ISO sensitivity, thereby avoiding noise.

Outstanding color and contrast
The ZEISS T* coating plays a key role in suppressing reflections that could degrade image quality. In turn, it reduces flare and ghosting, ensuring enhanced color and contrast that give images a deep, three-dimensional feel.
