It's closer to a 12 megapixel crop, not 10 - 11 point something.

It's standard size is 3924 x 2656, i.e. 10.4Mp. Unless some raw software may add a few pixels around that.

P.S. Sorry, just checked with manual, it's actually 3984x2656. So it's 10.6Mp. The wrong value above was lifted from dpr

I've been trying to sell my 16-80Z for several weeks. Everyone seems to lowball the price. So I took it out of the box today and did a little testing. I've been using the 16-50 with the A77 for a while now. Now that I shot a few shots with the 16-80, I want to keep it again. These two lenses are really complementary. If the 16-80 had SSM, I would not even dream of parting with it. It really is a great lens. And after three years, my copy of the Z has no zoom creep, no fungus, etc. And it is sharp (though vignetting with a filter at 16mm can still occur). Now, do I need both lenses? Not really. Though I have a funny feeling I'd really regret getting rid of the Z.

Like you, I have both lenses and have no intention of selling the CZ. The 16-50 is great for low light and video but a little short. The CZ has great range, and is very compact. If only it had SSM!
