85 out of 100 medium confidence 27 reviews

The Sony FE PZ 28-135mm F4 G OSS lens is highly praised for its image quality, versatility, and robust build, making it a favorite for both video and still photography. Users appreciate the smooth power zoom, silent operation, and useful aperture ring, though some note the zoom speed is too fast for cinematic work and the lens is quite heavy. The included lens cap is widely criticized as cheap, but overall sentiment is very positive, with many calling it a great value for the price.
