    Versatile, lighter than most Sony zooms and sharp. Bought this for a vacation and I'm sure glad I had it. It stayed on my camera by day. I do wish it had 2.8 rather than 4.0 which limits my indoor photos. Not a big deal as I usually switch to a prime. Highly recommend. Great value.

    I really was between giving this review 4 and 5 stars. Settled on 4, and here's why: Pros: Works Great, Makes Pictures Better, Constant aperture lets in more light and takes less time changing settings in manual, works on crop sensor and will still work on full frame, comes with a really sweet lens hood. THIS LENS WILL MAKE YOUR PICTURES BETTER. Cons: Weight. It's a pro level lens that has awesome glass inside and it's a full sensor compatible lens. That adds weight, which isn't for everyone. Currently using with an a6300, so the lens is significantly heavier than the camera. I hold the lens between shots rather than the camera because (1) it's heavier and (2) it's more expensive. Another con is the price, but I think the better quality picture you get will be worth it.

    I've just begun taking photos with my Sony a7iii camera and this G24-105 lens. I've been quite impressed so far by the images it's captured. The range is good for travel photography, although in some situations I've needed a wider angle - but, overall, wouldn't want to lose the 105mm range which I found more helpful than what I would have gained at the other end.

    I bought this 24-105 f4 for a 4th time and all are in use as "main" lens in run and gun video production unit. Tested it and saw the sharpness and said wow. Focal length covers most of our needs. I also use a 16-35 f4. And, have a couple of 70-200mm 2.8's that are amazing.

    This is my primary game lens for when I film basketball games. I love this lens because it covers a good amount of range with a constant aperture, plus the steady shot. A great lens in my opinion.

    I recently purchased the G 24-105 lens, and it has exceeded all my expectations. This lens is absolutely beautiful and delivers exceptional performance. I can take photos from far away, and they remain incredibly sharp and vibrant. The image quality is stunning, with excellent color reproduction and clarity. It’s a fantastic choice for anyone looking to capture both wide-angle and telephoto shots with ease. I couldn’t be happier with this lens – it was definitely a great choice

    Lens is very sharp. I have it paired with an A7R IV and a6500. Range is very useful, bokeh is good for f4 and tracking is quick & accurate. I picked mine up on sale and it was a great value at the sale price.

    For an all-in one lens, I don't think you can do much better for the money. F4 with these new Sony sensors is plenty. I plan on using this lens to have almost every focal length covered at F4 with just three lenses. 16-35, 24-105 and then 100-300. Perfect set for anyone but a pro.

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

    Needed a better zoom and this works. As expected, it is much heavier than the kit lens so I use this lens for parties and events and i use the kit lens for casual street photography (since its lighter). Its convenient having the G button. My Tamron F2.8 lense takes nicer photos but it sometimes has communications issue with the A7, so its safer sticking with a Sony lens for parties.
