I had the panasonic 35-100mm. Really small with 200mm field of view. I have really nice shots with it on G100.
all the hype on SAR was for a 24-70mm f2 lens it seems
A bit underwhelmed....
I did say that it's always disappointing when he's hyped it up so much. Not a lens that interests me in the slightest.all the hype on SAR was for a 24-70mm f2 lens it seems

We're down in North Devon at the moment. And I think I've brought..... almost everything....
So far the most used is the Tamron 70-180mm and X100f. I brought the Sony FF for dedicated sunrise, sunset and night skies though. Which is fine because I just take out what I think I'm going to need.
Excellent news. As long as they don't sacrifice optical performance in the chase of the number! Very nice to see Sony moving to quality glass and not going all in for the light or die craze. They do their fair share and that's fine as long as they also make this.all the hype on SAR was for a 24-70mm f2 lens it seems

, well unless you like the most overpriced and world's slowest mirrorless zooms . They have plenty of that.
And here is the hope they also do an "enormous" body to match. Pretty much a Z9. Would be lovely.

It will be expensive for sure. If you do weedings on a regular basis I think you can still pretty happily afford it. OR else you probably just prefer primes and multiple bodies which is what I'm currently leaning to.
By the way this will be a very nice FU Canon! Leaving pretty much not a single exclusive reason to go with them
I see no need for 14mm. However I am very much looking forward to placing my hands on 105mm f1.4 art once a good affordable copy hits eBay. 135mm is stellar, so likely this is too
I think optical performance will be 'sacrificed' as, like a lot of modern lenses they'll likely rely on lens corrections to make it smaller and lighter than it would be otherwise. That's not to say optical performance will be bad of course, those current lenses that rely on lens corrections still have excellent IQExcellent news.

On the Sony Alpha FB group a lot of people use and recommend zooms for weddings, but I do think the majority on there are American. That being said, I don't recall ever going to a wedding where the tog used primes, not that I've been to that manyNot sure if someone who is a gardener would have any need for a 24-70 f/2.
I haven’t seen a wedding photographer regularly use a 24-70 since Jesus was a wee lad.
A lot of amateur photographers like 24-70’s for handinesses reasons. Sports photographers always seem to have one I guess for stadium shots and the press often use them.

Is 24-70mm f2.8 gm2 software corrected? I thought it was one they pretty much left as is, like most gm2s? The g on the other hand - I will never own them
Lol. You must have seen a lot
You bet it can be very useful for gardens photographyNot sure if someone who is a gardener would have any need for a 24-70 f/2.
You see this will be f2 - an entry level prime territory with convenience of all in 1 package.

2.8 was never that special until you go past like 50mm. While I prefer primes, and 35 + 85 1.4 is a very good combination you are also constantly swapping with 50 and 135 or even 16-35. 2 bodies is about the limit what you can use at a time unless you have 3 or 4 arms.
Basically not a bad option to have it in the bag as a backup, or in case there is just too much sudden change requiring variety of options.
Besides you don't always need max iso at f1.4. you certainly don't.
My guess is it will sell, and better than canon 28-70mm f2. Price may be the limiting factor though
AFAIK most modern lenses require some kind of correction, for as long as I can remember there's been lens profiles in LR to correct distortion and/or vignette. It just appears nowadays manufacturers are more prepared to rely on the improvement in software corrections in an aim to acheive smaller, lighter lenses. I read somewhere that it can also help improve edge to edge sharpness but I'm not sure how true that is
This really frustrates me and I can't figure it out either. My images range from not sharp to mush on here, great for a photography site
