16-80 f/4 (unconfirmed rumour) - stoppingdown - 06-21-2023

Quote:The new lens will be a 16-80 f4 constant zoom. It will also be kitted with the a6700, although more expensive than the 15-45. It will be optically superior to the old Zeiss lens. It’s going to be great! I will let you know when I have more info about the price/size and other details.

Well, “optically superior to the old Zeiss lens” is not a big deal, given the mediocre predecessor. It depends: how much? Let's see.

Even if it's not true, it's time they make one

Actually I'm surprised they haven't done so far...

I dreamed of the 16-80/3.5-4.5 ZA in my final days as an A mount user. It was a nice lens and there's no reason they can't repeat this performance......... right?
