Shooting with the Sony FE C 16-35mm
The FE C 16-35mm T3.1 G is Sony's cine-oriented wide zoom for full-frame E-mount — a constant T3.1 with an 11-blade iris and proper cine mechanics, rather than a stills zoom pressed into service. On an FX6, FX9 or BURANO it is a natural wide option that keeps exposure consistent through the range and gives your AC something predictable to work with.
A sensible wide companion to the G Master primes or the PZ zooms if you are building a full-frame Sony package.

How is this different from a stills 16-35mm?
Cine mechanics — a constant T-stop, clickless iris, controlled breathing and geared rings. Those differences matter as soon as you are pulling focus or adjusting exposure mid-shot.
What bodies does it suit?
Full-frame Sony E-mount cameras — the FX3, FX6, FX9 and BURANO are all natural pairings.
