    Can't beat the quality. It is a heavy lens, so keep that in mind, but the clarity is unbelievable. Love this lens.

    That 2.8 aperture can stay like that at any focal length providing a beautiful bokeh effect. Detailed imagery that when combined with the alpha series camera this is just a perfect camera to shoot professional pictures and video

    The lens of all lenses! Turns your mirrorless camera into a beastly camera. When you’re shooting it feels like a 20 pound weight in your hand...but sharpness and clarity is off the charts

    Best all around lens. Kind of heavy but versatile. But, if you are in low light conditions 2.8 aperture is limiting

    The price says it all. This lens really is a high quality lens that produces sharp images and great functionality for both manual and autofocus. If someone is looking into buying a semi-all-rounder lens then this is the one that should definitely be looked at. It is on the pricey side, but it will not disappoint for those who are willing to spend that much. I bought the Sony a7iii with the kit lens and bought this G Master lens as my “first” pro lens. As for right now it takes the shots I want and it’ll also help me grow on my photography skills.

    I LOVE this lens, I hope they update it though. Its been few years since this has come out It did arrive late but thats not the lens fault lol it’s understandable during these times for items to arrive late. But other then that, i do recommend these lens. I had a 24GM but wanted the zoom. I have Sigma 24-70 for mirrorless as well as this one. Both are AMAZING. Its still a debate whether or not to keep one or the other, pairing it with my A7R4
