Customer Ratings & Reviews

Have a high-resolution Sony camera? Need superior optics for your photography? Do you want nice photographic rendering for your pictures without harsh contrast or soft corners? This is a professional lens and it does its job. There aren't any concessions that you'll find with 3rd party lenses such as firmware, focusing or build issues. Sure, this is a premium lens at a premium price that some people can't afford or justify. Considering it's a telephoto/zoom lens, it's performance justifies the cost - it's a convenient alternative to working with a handful of prime lenses. Color accuracy, sharpness, ability to resolve a 61 megapixel sensor, quick focusing - there are no pitfalls with this lens. The devil is in the details, and the details make this lens great.

I would say I got what I paid for when it comes to the quality feel of this lens. The only reason I gave this lens 4 stars is because it is pretty heavy. I even used it on an a6400, I do understand this is because of the great quality glass used inside, which is completely understandable but I'm sure we'll get there one day! ;) Besides that I love the fact that I can take this for a quick shoot and get all sorts of angles if im on a time crunch.

This lense is everything it's cracked up to be and more! I don't think I'll ever want another 24-70 after trying this one. It has very clear detailed images and the button on the side is a nice touch. I'll probably get more G master lenses since this one was worth the extra money.

Love this lens for my Sony a7iii. Had a sigma and this is much better quality.

This lens is soooooo nice I'm using it with the brand new Sony A7RV and it's a dream fit. Images are sharp and the video is crisp too!

Expensive, but worth it. Great multipurpose lens, I can get the majority of the shots I want with this one lens. I find it very comparable to Canon’s L-Series 24-70 2.8. With the G Master series , Sony finally has the lenses that warrant the switch from Canon or Nikon.

Excellent carry-around lens spanning wide-angle(landscape) to telephoto(portrait) lens with corner to corner sharpness. Expensive but quality is top notch. Bit heavy. Autofocus is better than I expected. Sharp even at wide open(2.8). Very happy with the purchase.

Sharp, fast zoom that will serve the vast majority of any photographer's needs. G Master quality build and feature set (although would be nice to have lens stabilization). pricey but you get what you pay for.

Amazing lens! This is capable of zooming from far away and up close shots. Its a very versatile lens that is great for all kinds of shots.

Should be everyone's first lens if buying full frame Sony. Crisp and perfect. It's z tad on the heavier side, but this is a walking around and shooting marvel. Definitely go native glass on this one!

This lens is a pretty much all around usage lens. Highly recommended. Is a little pricy but well worth it. You won't regret buying it. This lens is for serious photographers who are interested on acquiring quality images.

Like every review before me I find this lens a great lens that needs to be part of someone’s collection. Wether blogging or photography it is a crystal clear shot. Only downside like most g master lenses is the price .

Excellent lens, great quality, it’s heavy but stronger

Best Sony lens I have ever bought, images out this lens are very sharp. Lens has a solid feel and smoot zooming and focus mechanism, it is a complement to my A7R M2. Other than the price this lens deserves a 5-star rating.

If you are getting into photography or videography and want a great lens that's gonna last you a long time, then this is the lens for you. -Great autofocus -Quality design -Great price (if timing is right) Now I understand the price is not appealing but you can always trust the Open Box Deals if there are any available and paying a little bit more for the protection is worth it in the long run.

Always wanted one of these since I started following photography. Exceptional quality images

Great lens just rather have the GM I for what I do which is videography but never the less great amazing lens for photography

Nice f/stop and quick focus. Its heavy and my wrist pops after a few hours but totally worth the image quality.

Using it on my Sony A7CII. Love it so far. I can capture wide shots to close ups. Easy to use and focus.

This is an incredible lens. Well built, sharp, fast to focus with a pleasing sweet bokeh. On par with high end primes. My FE35mm, FE55mm and FE90mm macro are all redundant since I purchased this lens. Great lens.
