Heavy Price
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.An awesome lens with perfect focal length but the price is questionable. Not sure if I would buy this lens at a full-price but maybe at a refurbished price point. The lens pairs well with the Alpha Full Frame cameras. This is a great lens for traveling and video work.

Great lens for my uses and situations....
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m long overdue for getting this lens. I use to rent it all the time but decided for my real estate company I love great images. This lens delivers sharp, vivid and and good wide perspective. The weight is good, it is not as heavy as some describe just hit the gym maybe! Overall, great all around lens for my real estate business.

Sony 16-35
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Sony lens is great. I was looking for a wide angle zoom to pair with my Sony A7R4 and this allows me to take full advantage of the capabilities both the camera and lens. It is a hefty lens and feels very rugged. Looking forward to a lot of great pictures being taken with this combo.

Spectacular Quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m a novice when it comes to photography but this lens is the best thing I’ve ever bought! It works so well in low light and my photos come out unbelievable. I recently took this lens to the east coast for fall foliage and the pictures were the best I’ve ever taken. Highly recommend.

A must have Sony lens
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Greatest Sony lens I’ve bought. I used to regret not getting the 12-24gm. But this lens is flawless. Shark any f stop, or zoom level. Clarity and colors it shows is superb. This lens barely comes off the camera. Fast autofocus too. It’s changed my photography.

Awesome but, Sigma is a little cost friendlier
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is an awesome lens for sure! Would get nothing but Sony lens if I had the money. But I returned and went with Sigma. OMG I can't tell the difference. Beside maybe the warmth of raw photos but I edit my photos so that is an easy fixt

A must-have wide-angle lens for pros.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens is part of the 'holy trinity' of lenses. It offers a very wide angle of view and a superior 2.8 aperture so that it's great in low light situations. It is a pretty expensive lens, but the quality is there with little compromise.

Great lens
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a good lens. It is portable and produces very clear video/images. The blurriness could be more, but of course there is the option to get other lower aperture lenses like the F1.8.
