    This lens is well made and produced acceptable photos. Unfortunately, it is expensive for what you get. The Sigma art series is a superior lens and a cheaper alternative. Spend the extra money and get the GMII if you want a Sony lens.

    This Sony did not do very well on my a7iii. I bought the Sony 24-105 and the picture quality was much sharper with the 24-105.

    I purchased this used at the outlet. It was a faulty piece unfortunately. It had below standard image quality and eye focus response was intermittent. Still a great lense if you can find a good copy. Eventually ended up selling it and upgrading to the GMII.

    Love this lens. When I first started I carried multiple lenses. 12mm-24mm, has a 35mm and then a 55. Wish I had started with this one though. Never need to swap it out and can get most my photos with just it on. Good range to carry at all times.
