    I bought this to go with my Sony Alpha a7III. Love this Lens. I hate having to change lenses all the time and it is a good lens that works for most situations without compromising the aperture.

    for a hobbyist turned part time professional photographer, the 24-70mm f/2.8 standard zoom is my go-to lens. if you're planning to start a sony mirrorless system, this full-frame lens is the first lens i would recommend. Invest in your glass.

    I've migrated from canon to Sony my Sony 24 to 70 G master is just as good if not better then my L glass from canon in the same range. This lens is sharp at all apertures, but most responsive in the middle ranges. You can go wrong with this lens.

    So this is my first Zoom lens and it is awesome!! I use it mainly to take photos of my family. It allows me to be away from the action a little bit so that my shadow isn't in the shot. I would recommend this to anyone. It's a great lens!

    It’s a G Master so obviously there’s no better lens to get with identical features/specs. Sure it’s expensive but once you use it you’ll understand.
