    One lens to rule them all?
    This is now my go to for every day work. Super quiet for video, insanely fast auto focus, the build quality is out of this world. If you got it like that.. get it! you won’t regret it.. Just be mindful of the weight this combined with my Sony A73 limits the gimbals that I could potentially use. Not really a downside in my opinion as it forces me to get heavier duty gimbals, that can use a multitude of cameras. I ended up finding a killer deal on a glidecam centurion electric stabilizer Combine that with my slypod and you have the ability to get an insane amount of shots. If you already have a lens though, just remember Don’t let your kid hold you back from attempting to go out and make connections. The rejections you get today will lead to business in the future. Every rejection you get will put you one step closer to a yes. Don’t take this as an invitation to go into businesses blind, pull up their Facebook or Instagram right before you go in take a few screenshots of things that you believe you could do better or differently. If they say no be persistent and ask if that you can shoot their content for free with one caveat! If they like it they can buy it. If you’re a recreational shooter just keep shootin! Sorry didn’t mean to go on a rant. A lot of people I know in the business do more sitting than shooting! Did you really read all of this? What are you still doing here? Get out there and make it happen! 😂

    5.0 out of 5 stars Best Sony Lens but watch for purple fringing
    Reviewed in Canada on August 21, 2020
    Added photos and comments March 15: the weight feels quality! Not a burden. superb colour, striking resolution, balanced light and dark areas. It is perfect all around, if you have only one lens to go, this is it! Purple never comes back... why???
    Added comments March 11, 2021 - It has been 6 months with this lens. I have found more issues with it. Purple fringing is quite obvious and it cannot be corrected. It often happens when there is a big light contrast. But it could happen in the evening low light and the entire frame is clouded with purple. They cannot be corrected. After all, it is not a bad lens and is one of the most balanced high quality original. If I have to compare it (unfairly) against my Summilux 35mm, LOL - I would want to just throw this one in the bag.

    I bought this lens to match my new A7R4. It is a perfect match and the most versatile. On the heavy side. But it feels very substantial and solid made. It covers city and landscape shooting, and meets 90% of the needs. If I bring just one lens on my camera and take a drive around town or nearby cities, it is this lens. If I have the appetite to carry more lenses, there will be lots of choices but they all come after this lens! Sigma 24-70? A good replacement, mostly for its price! Nothing can beat this 24-70 f/2.8 G Master!
