    I attempted to buy a Zoom Lens, this was a decent lens but, as most of the lenses I own are f1.2 to f1.8, with a few f2.5. So, going to f4.0 was a challenge. The lens does what it is supposed to do, it just wasn't for me.

    As good as the new GMII

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this lens to use on my Sony A7RV. As far as IQ and rendering, this lens is just as sharp as its bigger GMii sibling. It has better IQ than the previous GM 16-35! It’s small size and light weight make it a stellar choice for street, landscape, and general photo sessions. The demanding 61 mp sensor on my A7RV plays very well with this lens, so the 33mp A7IV would be even better (I own that camera as well). I’m pairing this with another fantastic Sony lens, the Sony 20-70 F/4.
