Q: QuestionWill it work on the a7RIV 100% Because It states this lens is for MOST A7 series ..

Asked 4 years ago by Xsavian.

• A:Answer Absolutely. I own the Sony A-1 and it they work together beautifully. The much bigger and far more expensive 24-105 Sony G lens is another excellent choice. I tried them both (the 24-105 is BIG) and I went with this one w/o hesitation.

Q: QuestionIs there an app that is still supported by Sony to transfer photos from the camera to a smart phone or tablet via wi-fi or BT? It's disappointing that this feature is a major reason I purchased a certain camera but the app doesn't work any more.

Q: QuestionIs this lens good for action shots? Racing photos?

Asked 3 years ago by Scrow.

• A:Answer Yes it is a good all around lens. Not sure how far you may plan to be from the subjects/moving objects in your racing/action photos - the further you are from them you may need a longer zoom lens.

Q: QuestionI'm looking for a lens like this for my son's NEX-7. Is this a good choice? Will it fit? Would you choose a different model? Thanks, Robwi

Asked 3 years ago by Robwi.

• A:Answer This may be an excellent, and highly versatile choice. On the NEX-7 (which I owned previously and it is a fantastic camera), this full-frame 24-70 lens behaves like a 36-105mm lens, which is a super useful range (36mm = modest wide angle and 105mm = short telephoto and is very handy for framing portraits, etc). Lastly, if your son later buys one of Sony’s full-frame cameras, this lens is engineered to natively support the larger sensor. As for this lens vs others—at its current price (especially if still on sale)—this lens is an absolute bargain. Zeiss has been making camera lenses for quite a long time and is synonymous with excellence. While there sre newer, sharper lenses out there, this lens has beautiful, natural color and renders images that have a special quality to them. It is also such a compact lens, it is likely to be the lens that actually stays on the camera and gets a lot of use! I own this lens and would purchase it again, if needed, without hesitation.
