    24-70mm GMII gives outstanding resolution

    I bought this 24-70mm F2.8 GM II from Best Buy about 6 weeks ago. I attached it to my 60Mega Pixel Sony A7R4 for my photography tour in Utah. I really like this combination. It gave me the portability of being compact and lightweight, as well as the required focus range. It effectively delivers well focused images with excellent sharpness, clarity and low distortion. In particular, its high resolution allows me to crop images taken at a long distance, giving me an extended digital zoom capability, which reduces my need to switch to telephoto in many situations.

    This lens is incredible! So happy I made the jump to the G-master lens. In the last month two of my clients said their footage looks better than real life because of how sharp this lens is and the f2.8 helps you get those beautiful out of focus backgrounds. The image stabilization of this lens with my FX3 body is rock steady handheld at 70mm. Nothing like a G Master lens for your don’t camera. Once you shoot with one you’ll never want anything else.

    I was using the first version of this lens on loan from a co-worker and absolutely loved it. When the opportunity arose to get my own lens, I chose to upgrade to the newer model and have been very pleased with the results! Excellent choice in a “catch all” lens.

    I don't know what Sony did with this lens, but the glare is so creamy now compare to the older version, creamy is a good thing because it makes the shot look mesmerizing and dreamy. The aputure ring is definitely my favorite thing that Sony have done with their new lens. Highly recommend this over the old one for this astetic alone if you're a run and gun shooter who goes from building to outside right away.

    I have always been a prime lens type of guy. Zoom lenses have always just been to big and apature/sharpness were sacrafised. This lens however has not came off my camera body. It has saved me time without compromising quality! Its expensive for a reason sony did great! Buy nice or buy twice.
