It’s a decent lens IMHO. For its range it’s fairly compact. Stabilisation is great and the semi macro capability is great for close ups. IQ is generally excellent, but focussed near infinity at 300, I find some loss of sharpness. It could be atmospheric factors so I’m not calling it as a lens...
I got some raw files from Chris. The barrel distortion is indeed there, but only when the files are not digitally corrected. The 20-60 lens retains some geometric distortion from its optical design and needs digital correction in post processing to remove it. The camera will do this in its...
Hi Chris - can you send me the raw for this image? I'm curious where that barrel distortion is coming from! Would be good to play around with it in LR.
I have the 24-105 and I’m pretty happy with it. The OIS is an excellent addition and works well in sync mode with the IBIS. It‘s also got great range and a semi macro capability. At f4 it’s perhaps not the best “event” lens - but for me range is much more important than max aperture. I...
A friend has one of those, with a Z9. He does a lot of rugby tournament shooting, often in s***ty light in the middle of winter. The shots from the combo look amazing!
