Pros: AF, sharpness, speed, overall image quality, bokeh

Cons: chromatic aberrations, focus breathing, color gamut

Opinion: Third-party portrait lens accessible economically, but which gives excellent image rendering especially with Sony's "R" series. On average, personally 9/10 shots are in focus and have a very high sharpness in the center and very acceptable at the edges, distortions are almost absent. The bokeh is scary and contours the subject very well making the image very mellow and the subject well incorporated. In difficult light conditions it suffers with crom aberrations and even a bit of flare, but all of which can be solved in post. I personally also use it when I do landscapes with the R5 to push more on a detail and then cropping the 61 mpx in post give me unique images. The only aspect I don't like is the chromatic side which in my opinion is not natural but cold and based on the ambient light, it often tends to greenish or sometimes too much to magenta, but I also correct this in post. Anyway, I highly recommend trying it, especially if you can't buy a "GM" or an "ART". Many compared shots are indistinguishable from their older sisters

Pros: Sharp, blurry and light weight

Cons: None for the price

Opinion: I have had this lens for many months. And I must say that unbeatable price quality. Precise, light and incredible sharpness. Even at full opening it does its dirty job, the blur is fantastic and really special. You really can't ask for more at this price. Used on Sony A7 iv together with its big brother 35-150 f2-f2.8 also spectacular
