What it does, and why that matters

Range — 01

One lens for a full day out

A 5x zoom that covers wide-angle interiors and landscapes right through to a useful short telephoto, so it can stand in as the only lens in the bag for travel, events, and everyday walk-around shooting.

16-80mm (24-122mm equivalent) zoom range
16 elements in 12 groups, including 3 aspherical and 1 ED aspherical element
Constant F4 maximum aperture across the range

Stabilisation — 02

Optical IS for handheld work in low light

Built-in optical image stabilisation smooths out handheld shake, giving more usable slower shutter speeds indoors or at dusk without reaching for a tripod.

Maximum magnification 0.25x at the 80mm end
