Although the Sony has good center sharpness throughout much of the range, the exception is at 50mm, where field curvature can be problematic and stopping down doesn't help. It also has quite noticeable chromatic aberration at the edges of the frame at 16m...
The Sony DT 16-50mm F2.8 SSM is an excellent standard zoom lens for Sony A-Mount owners and is particularly well-matched in terms of size and build-quality to the A77 body that we tested it with. Perhaps the only fly in the ointment is an apparent lac...
Very good image quality in the frame centre, Low longitudinal chromatic aberration, Decently corrected coma, Negligible astigmatism, Very quick and silent autofocus
Weak image quality on the edge of the frame near the maximum relative aperture, Significant chromatic aberration close the maximum relative aperture at both ends of focal range, Vignetting which is not only high but also higher than that of the competitor

Abstract: Since this is a DT lens, this lens is usable only on camera bodies with APS-C sized sensors. Consequently, it's more compact than lenses with the same zoom range that can also be used on 'full frame' (36 x 24 mm) cameras.Side view of the DT 16-50mm f/2.8 ...

Das Sony SAL 2.8/16-50 mm SSM erweist sich im Test als bestes Standard-Zoom für Sony-DSLR mit APS-C-Bildsensor. Zwar könnte die Auflösung ein Tick besser sein. Doch die durchgängig hohe Lichtstärke und die praktische Distanzanzeige hebt das Sony SAL 2.8/...
