Complete System vs Lens Investment
The Canon EOS R6 Mark II bundle provides a full-frame mirrorless camera body plus RF 24-105mm lens, making it a complete photography solution. Sony's FE PZ 28-135mm is a professional-grade lens only, requiring an existing Sony camera body. This fundamental difference shapes which option suits your needs.
Optical Performance and Features
Sony's 28-135mm offers superior focal range versatility with power zoom, constant f/4 aperture, and professional G-series optics ideal for video work. Canon's 24-105mm provides solid image quality with variable f/4-7.1 aperture and image stabilization, though it lacks the Sony's advanced video-centric features like smooth power zoom control.
Value and Target User
Canon delivers exceptional value for photographers starting fresh or upgrading from older systems, providing both body and lens for nearly the same price as Sony's lens alone. However, existing Sony users seeking a professional zoom lens will find the FE PZ 28-135mm offers superior build quality, weather sealing, and specialized video features that justify the investment.
