If you're after a reliable, versatile, and sharp lens that covers all your shooting bases, this is the workhorse optic to consider.
The Sony FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS is now available for £679 at Wex– you save £40 off its original £719 price.
This wide-to-telephoto all-in-one zoom covers everything from landscapes to portraits, making it an easy single-lens solution for travel and everyday photography.
It's a popular lens that rarely sees significant price drops, and stock across the UK is tight – retailers like Clifton Cameras, Park Cameras and London Camera Exchange are currently out of stock or waiting for stock, while availability at Wex is limited.
Juggling multiple lenses for different styles is not great – and it can be pricey. Especially when you are just starting your full-frame journey or if you recently switched to a Sony camera setup.
So, you might consider a telephoto zoom – but many fall in the 70-300mm range, which means missing out on the wide-angle shots that make landscapes and street photography pop. Plus, quality full-frame telephotos can be expensive.
But the Sony FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.5 OSS can do it all, on a budget – this superzoom covers everything from 24mm wide-angle to 240mm telephoto, it lets you shoot wide seascapes, candid street scenes, environmental portraits, classic portraits, weddings, events, wildlife, and even sports – and all with one lens for just over £800.
For photographers on a budget, this lens is a perfect tool. It's the kind of investment that pays off by replacing multiple lenses in your kit, freeing up your bag and your wallet.
I even consider getting this lens for my own photography, as I am currently limited to a 24-70mm focal length at the moment – way too little reach to capture distant subjects on my Sony A7 III.
Technically, this lens packs a punch. We actually rated this lens as the "best Sony lens for travel".
The Sony FE 24-240mm features Optical SteadyShot for stabilized shooting, though it does lean on in-body corrections for things like chromatic aberration – which is pretty common with many modern mirrorless lenses.
What sets it apart is its zoom range combined with consistently sharp image quality throughout. Unlike many superzoom lenses that compromise on sharpness, this Sony optic delivers crisp photos from 24mm all the way to 240mm.
