Product Overview

Sony FE 24-105mm F4 G OSS is a standard zoom lens for Sony E-mount. It covers the full-frame image circle. Introduced by Sony in 2017, it has 17 elements in 14 groups.
Like most zoom lenses, the Sony FE 24-105mm F4 G OSS is externally-zooming. For incremental weathers, Sony is kind enough to include weather sealing.
A standard zoom lens with moderate aperture, the Sony FE 24-105mm F4 G OSS is more of a "volume seller" than a premium option. Still, some photographers may find the results "good enough". The lens is also stabilized, making it even easier to use for videos and stills alike.

Reviewer score 75%
Reviewers from cameralabs have found the following***:
The Sony FE 24-105mm f4G OSS is a general-purpose lightweight zoom for Sony's full-frame mirrorless cameras. The lens sports a constant f4 focal ratio and can deliver reasonably blurred backgrounds and attractive rendering when shot wide-open at 105mm. There's optical stabilisation to iron-out wobbles on older bodies, or further enhance those with sensor-shift.

Pros
  • Flexible and light design
  • Optical stabilisation
  • Wide to short telephoto range
Cons
  • Not a member of the G-Master series

Reviewers from digitalpicture have found the following***:
As an "FE" lens, the Sony FE 24-105mm f/4 G OSS Lens is compatible with all Sony E-mount cameras, including both full frame and APS-C sensor format models. This is a great lens, aside from strong linear distortion and some hard corner vignetting, especially for this focal length. From a perspective, this lens is hard to beat.

Pros
  • Excellent image quality
  • Excellent vignetting
  • Compatible with all Sony E-mount cameras
  • 1-stop wider aperture
Cons
  • No adapter included
