![]() | Sony FE 28-70mm f/2 GM Pros: Extraordinary optical qualities, focal length versatility, lightning-fast autofocus in typical Sony style. Very nice image rendering, less surgical than other lenses Cons: Being a true all-rounder, perhaps the weight, which however is nothing special. Opinion: Arrived a week ago, I only did a couple of shooting sessions, with a very good impression. My current lens portfolio is, as far as Sony is concerned, the 14 1.8, the 35 1.4, the 50 1.2. Then I have a tamron 35-150 2-2.8 and the sigma 60-600. So my judgment immediately goes to compare it to the two g masters I own. The performance of this new 28-70 is amazing, honestly I didn't notice significant differences with the fixed 50 (but I repeat I used it only two days). The impression is of an extremely versatile lens, suitable for all genres, including street (even if the size does not make it exactly invisible....). But the weight is nothing extraordinary, it carries around very well without any effort, and I think I can do a full day of shooting without any problems. Combined with the a7r5 it churns out clean files, of a surprising sharpness, three-dimensional, with a great character (on the other hand I find the 50 1.2 very "digital" in this respect, even if obviously it remains an extraordinary lens, which perhaps with low light will be superior to this all-rounder). At longer focal lengths the bokeh is very nice, creamy, with an analog look, which I found only in cameras with foveon sensors. I also tried it for landscapes, and even with only the 28 I was able to take very good shots, keeping an aperture around 8. I am curious to start testing it seriously thanks to the arrival of spring. In a few weeks I will update this review. But at the moment I can only be very satisfied with the purchase. Is it worth the money? In my opinion, yes, it allows you to go out without worries with a single goal, certain of being able to solve every situation. It does the job of three prime lenses, with a lower cost at the end, and with a much smaller footprint in your backpack. If cost is not a big deal, I can only recommend buying it. sent on March 31, 2025 |
