The Holy Grail
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I will start off by saying I am new to photography with interchangeable lenses, but this one is fantastic. I wish I knew more before I bought my first lens. The 24 to 70 mm length is great for all around photographs. This review won't make you buy it because you just should do it. It's just darn expensive.

Extraordinary zoom lens.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Extraordinary lens with exceptional clarity and weight. I’ve been in the market for some time to cover this range between my primes and finally jumped in after seeing so much praise for this iteration. Really enjoying the usefulness and much better weight for regular carry.

Well worth the price of admission for handheld.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally purchased the Sony 24-105mm f/4 for my A7R IV body but one thing that kept bothering me was the mediocre handheld results with my journalistic style photography. And so I decided to return it and upgrade to the Sony 24-70 mm f/2.8 GM II lens and boy am I glad I did. More compact and smoother lens all around, much better shooting performance for handheld low light shooting, and really good bokeh and control of the depth of field allows me to really dial in my shots. I have this lens on my camera 90% of the time and I have zero complaints. Well worth the $1k price difference to get here.
