    A new one lens does it all.

    After the day of releasing of Sony FE 20-70mm f/4 G, I watched and read many reviews of it, and decided to preorder a copy of the lens. It came much later than I thought it would have. When it was delivers, I immediately mount it on my A7C. I never regret to order it. I feel like this is a new one lens do it all. This lens comes in a relatively a compact, lightweight, and versatile range zoom lens. Pairs it with Sony A7C, they are like a match from heaven for traveling photography. They are perfect for vlogging, content creators for video, and at the same time they can offer landscape, cityscape, street photography, and portrait at large end. It produces sharpness image that fit the imagination of any photographer. The extra 4mm at the wide range is going to be the big deal of this lens. The extra 4mm wide range of this lens allow better way to vlogging where you could straggle with the traditional 24-70mm. More significantly, this lens is able to focus 60% faster than the FE 24-70mm F4 and provides precise track fast-moving subjects, and the linear motors provides quiet autofocus that can be its advantage. The price is reasonable comparing to its older brother Sony FE24-105mmF/4 G OSS. The negative of this lens is F/4. It can be an issue for most people when facing low light situation, but you can use a flash light for such situation. You can pair it with a Sony FE 20mm F/1.8 G or Sony FE35mm F/1.8. They can be great companion when you needed for low light. Bottom line, this is a one-lens solution for Hybrid Shooter that gives great range for both still and video subjects on any given day. When it is mounting on A7c body they can become a perfect combination for traveling kit.

    Perfect travel zoom with the Sony A7C

    small form factor and relatively light for such a broad wide to short tele range. Maximum constant aperture of f4 is just a perfect compromise for speed versus size and weight making it a great travel companion (with the Sony A7C) without compromising performance. Colors are punchy and it's VERY SHARP!
