Sony 16-35 F4 OSS- 8 Year Old Lens- Why Do I Recommend You Buy This In 2023?

I have recently bought a ZV-E1 (E1, ZVE1) and have been building a lens collection. After some research I decided this much older lens was definitely worth considering- perhaps more than ever in 2023.
Why? Well watch to find out.
Have you got a ZVE1, A7Cii or another Sony Camera? Have you ever considered this lens, or perhaps you own it? Let me know in the comments.

As a second hand buy, for my use cases, this is a must have lens now with low prices for high quality. What do you think? Also do you agree the stabilisation is much better with Sony lenses? Everything on this video including intro filmed hand held, straight out of camera S Cinetone, on a ZV-E1.

I ended up finding this out too the hard way (by buying a third party lens) and i did my own video comparing the stabilization and found it was a big difference too.
Strangely few people mention this when you ask for lenses for video.

Yes it’s not mentioned enough in CZcams reviews. Thanks for watching.
