Sony FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS SEL24240
The lens is decent in 24-70mm range, on the same level as 28-70mm kit lens. It's satisfactory upto about 100mm. Beyond that it degrades quickly and by 150mm it becomes very soft with poor resolution and contrast. It improves a bit by 240mm, but not by much.
Pros:
- 10x range
Cons:
- optically poor

I shoot with an A7. I used to carry around the Zeiss 16-35mm, 24-70mm, and the G 70-200mm set of lenses. If I'm out shooting for a serious or paying project I still do.

Sony FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS
As the only native super-zoom lens for Sony A-series cameras, the FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS is a competent, rather than spectacular, optic that's simply priced too high for us to strongly recommend it.

Sony FE 24-240mm f/3.5-6.3 OSS Review
This superzoom lens adds a convenient zoom option to Sony's burgeoning range of equipment for their full frame mirrorless cameras. The lens is well built, handles well and the addition of dust and moisture resistance is a welcome feature, as it the effective optical stabilisation.
Pros:
- Excellent build quality
- Excellent sharpness in the centre of the frame
- Effective optical stabilisation
- Dust and moisture resistance
Cons:
- Sharpness towards the edges of the frame isn't up to the standard set in the centre
- CA levels are quite high
- AF is slow compared to similar lenses for other systems
- Can be prone to flare
- Variable minimum focus distance
- Not particularly compact
- or lightweight
