Pros: Professional lens with top-noted performance

Cons: Nothing special

Opinion: Just bought, after trying for quite a while a copy of a friend. When I took the Z6 I had not considered it in the slightest, since I was happy with the little brother f/4 taken in kit, also comforted by the opinions I found about Juza and, frankly, also for a matter of high cost difference. I thought i'd later pair him with a couple of bright fixes, to get a kit on these focal points that would satisfy me. Given that 24-70 is the zoom, in my way of photographing, which I use as a generalist lens, but I make it clear that I did not feel a particular need for f/2.8, given the good performance of the f/4 with the Z sensor, which in my opinion is also an excellent deal, especially when purchased in kits. But then I borrowed this extraordinary lens just bought by a friend, unable to prove it well, for health reasons, which he wanted me to use also to understand if he was free from some problems. So much goes the cat to the lard... that I couldn't help but take it myself. I read opinions that distinguish the two objectives almost exclusively for brightness and little else. Well... In my opinion, this is not the case, the differences are substantial and adequately justify the price difference. The f/2.8 S is a whole other thing, there is no actual comparison. The f/4 is better in portability and focuss more closely, everything else... I think it really affects the price difference, to determine the choice. As far as I'm concerned, it's like having a set of great fixed goals ranging from mid-wide to almost medium-angle. You can do it from the night landscape to the set portrait, shoot events in suitable environments and much more, with excellent results. I also photograph (for work) flat panels (samples), very lightly material, which came to me well with the f/4, but much better with the f/2.8 in fact, which has a macro sharpness. It has a formidable color rendering, without obvious defects whatsoever. Let's put sharpness in the background for a moment, which is also great from edge to edge, no aberrations, etc., but the realism of colors in most light conditions is the main reason that made me spend 'i'm a lot of money. By the way, autofocus is very fast and quiet. The construction is absolutely pro, you realize it as soon as you take it in your hand. Quite different from f/4. The weight and size are absolutely performance-related, the balance and usability are optimal, I don't think we could have done any better in this regard. If for someone 800 grams of zoom is excessive, it will do very well to take the small, which is still very valid and with excellent value for money. Third programmable ring and key are a plus, which I consider very useful. The oled screen is a gadget of which, for the moment, I do not understand all the usefulness, it is cool and that's it, in my opinion. It costs the right, if we report it to the zooms of equivalent class (almost) and similar focal point of the competition; I foiled, but I feel like I spent my money very well. This goal, unlike the younger brother, finally made me understand all the sensor quality of my Z6. I believe that with Z7 this evidence can only increase. If you are curious, go and see the international reviews, with all the considerations that are expressed to you, but do not try it ... otherwise you will have to buy it.

Pros: Excellent in every condition, one step ahead of the already excellent 24-70 f 2.8 VR.

Cons: High price.

Opinion: With the Z6 it achieves levels of sharpness at every point, it's fast and precise, and the colors have a magnificent yield. An optics that represents a step forward compared to the G series. Compared to the excellent 24-70 f 4.0 always for the Z has more weight but the advantage of the diaphragm in some situations allows you to capture so much excellent light. SUl price maybe you have exaggerated a little too much and a 500 euros less are there, however if you can spend it definitely worth the effort.

Pros: Edge-to-edge sharpness,third dial,programmable button,oled screen

Cons: Missing focal excursion block,82mm filters,price

Opinion: I don't have much to add to previous reviews in terms of optical quality, if you shoot often at 2.8 this is the optics for you; otherwise the little brother f4 goes more than fine. I would have preferred size and weight a smaller thread but given the optical quality there can be. It seems very strange to me that they did not provide a button for the focal excursion block (present on the f4). In conclusion, once attached to the machine it remains difficult to detach it!

Pros: Outstanding in every sense

Cons: maybe the price

Opinion: Great lens very sharp and above all bright, better than the respective 2.8 24/70 that I mounted on my reflex ! The weight slightly lighter than the other, plus you can see the footage, diaphragm the focal and you can put the grid of the third parties etc. What bothered me a bit is the size of the 82 mm filters but you know you can't have it all ! Nice sharp from edge to edge, gorgeous colors, to do the meticulous to go for a walk is more comfortable on the 24/70 f4 however I highly recommend it!!

Pros: sharpness, third die

Cons: cost and weight (compared to f4)

Opinion: I must say that I have long tried 24 70 f/2.8 together with the f4, both freehand shots and especially shots on the stand, especially at night. The first is undoubtedly better, but weighs more, costs three times and has less resistance to flare (important for my nights). As a result I have matured the decision to keep myself the cheapest model and "satisfy". I recommend it only to those who make extensive use of the focal at 2.8 or to those who for quality do not care about cost and weight. In these cases, it can undoubtedly arouse enthusiasm, but the fixed Zeiss still remain at a higher level, both for sharpness and for the opening of shadows, although certainly the difference compared to that of the 24 70 AFS is smaller,
