Sony - G Master FE 24-70 mm F2.8 GM Full-Frame E-Mount Standard Zoom Lens - Black

PRO's This lens is simply a workhorse, from wide angle landscape to portrait, this has become the lens I always have with my a7Rii. I haven't noticed any vignette or issues at the edges from 24 to 70mm wide open. The bokeh is impressive and almost perfectly round in all situations (quality glass and 11 blades), when wide open, this really makes your subject pop. I use the zoom lock all the time and love the focus lock button. The focus is fast, though it has a minimal noise at times (not enough to show up on video, but it is there). I suspect when I get the a7R Mark III the focus will be faster. This lens seems built for many body upgrades down the road, and I feel like I have invested wisely. EVERY shot out of this lens impresses!!! It connects very solidly to both my a7R Mark II and a6500. CON's It's pricey at $2,200. It's a tad on the heavy side, though understandably. Lens hood is plastic, though it seems durable Lens comes with a nice carry bag, I wish they had 24-70GM embroidered on the outside, because when you have 4 G Master lenses all in the same carry bags, I end up opening a few to find the one I'm looking for (btw, this is a GOOD problem to have, just making the comment in case Sony is listening ;-) They don't make a 2x teleconverter for this lens like they do for the 70-200 GM. So, to complete your trinity, consider 16-35GM and 70-200GM This lens didn't get as high of a review from dxomark.com as I would have expected, but from my usage of it so far, I'm very impressed with this lens. Though arguably it does really good compared to other 24-70 lenses in its class, it just can't compete with clarity ratings from some of the higher end prime lenses. Do not let this keep you from considering this lens. At $2,200 I would highly recommend renting it for a day or two first and seeing if it works for you on your camera and if it is worth the high price tag or not.

Sony G master lenses are some of the best camera lens on the market .....

The Sony G Master 24-70 2.8 is a straight SAVAGE!!! My new favorite lens in my arsenal. I've used a Canon L 24-70 2.8 for years as my go to lens...but my G Master with my Sony A9 makes this mirrorless combo light years ahead of anyone in the game right now. I'm in awe with every picture I take and it has brought a passion for photography back that I didn't think I was capable of feeling.

This lens is a work of art. It’s the perfect lens for events and social functions including weddings. My new go to lens. It really is a beaut.

This is my go to lens in almost all situations. The thing to keep in mind is that its a pretty heavy lens and for situations where I want a lighter more versatile lens I use my 1.8 55mm lens. However this bad boy does the job. I've taken some immaculate sunset photos with this guy.

Someone might said this lens is pricy, but if you pick one up, you will say WOW. Pro: Sharp Focus speed is really fast Quite Hight quality on pic and build Con: Heavy

I was a bit skeptical in buying a open box product, but when I received the lens, it was literally brand new! Best Buy ratings are honest! I was worried because it’s an Investment, but I am extremely happy with it!

This lens is amazing, the picture quality is outstanding. I photograph food and use it along with the 90mm g master macro lens. Lens is large and heavy but can't imagine not having it after seeing what it's capable of.
