This one is not my favorite lens, but I use it the most. Why? Because it’s friendly to my wrists and arms.

The Ultimate Walk Around Lens
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Having been a professional over the last 18 years while there are many opinions on what lens to walk around with on a vacation or just on the street, most professionals agree a 35mm perspective is the ideal. I fully agree. This lens is so very interesting. It is so small and light on a A7RII it's practically a pocket camera, however this is no question a lens that provides professional results. It is sharp wide open, makes NO noise focusing and is just a gem to use for landscapes, close ups of people with superb bokeh (out of focus area aside from the subject) and simply disappears from letting you know it's there regarding weight, as there is none to note. I consider this a "Must Have" for walk around wider use and indoors it proves it mettle to say the least.

Not as sharp a expected

I have both the A7ii and A7rii and on the former its decent but a no-go on the A7rii. Maybe due to the higher resolution sensor its not very sharp.
I wish Sony would make a decent 24-70 or 24-105 that's not huge or expensive like the 24-70GM...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I returned this after discovering the AF works very poorly on my Sony A7ii. Might be better on other models, just not what I needed.

Excellent lens, Zeiss optics
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Great lens with top-quality Zeiss optics that produces sharp images and is compatible with Sony's E-mount system. Other lenses had some "lag" with taking images, but this was not a problem for this lens. f/2.8 is a somewhat narrow field, so keep that in mind when using it. I'm not an expert though. Also much more affordable than the f/1.4 alpha and less bulky than the larger lenses.
