If you use this lens on the A7M2 and up the aperture smaller than F8, say F11-22 the camera can not be set to AFC or the lens will constantly hunt even though it reports it is in focus. It works great using AFA. You think Sony could have made a firmware update to correct this. This also happens with the NEW GM 24-70 at 24mm. The lens itself is fantastic, but probably not as good as the GM 16-35.

At first I was apprehensive about the F4 aperture since most of my lenses are F 1.4 to F2.8 but after using it on my last vacation I am totally in love with this lens. For interior and landscape shots it’s perfect! The F4 aperture is even ok for low light. You just have to be steady. At half the cost of the G Master version was think this lens is an absolute buy!

Great picture. Super sharp. Image stabilization is very good. Worth it! I was concerned about importing from hongkong but it was cheaper than used abd brand new in box.

in love with this lens. I was originally just looking for a really high quality wide or ultra-wide lens for landscape timelapse, but the versatility of the 16-35 range is amazing--and tack sharp throughout. Perfect walkaround lens--not too bulky to handle off-tripod like almost any sigma. And the OSS on top of the built-in stabilization with the a7iii makes video perform to an almost steadicam-smooth degree. Really gorgeous colors and superb sharpness. Only potential downside is the somewhat slow aperture, maxing open at 4. While not ideal for low lighting ISO can compensate and this aperture makes it extremely convenient to get almost everything in focus on every shot. It also can stay constant while zooming, huge plus for video. I've already used this for landscapes, street photography, event video, and even interviews where I want to show off the environment around the subject more. Highly recommend! Read full review

Seems pretty good, a bit off centre in terms of corner sharpness. Gave it a low rating for value due to it's regular price. As an example, the comparable Canon lens can regularly be found on sale for $1250 (CDN) but this one goes for $1800 and they're comparable in quality. Four stars due to the slightly off-centre nature of the corners, it's heavier than I would like it to be, and the switches are missing to quickly turn the stabilizer on and off or to turn autofocus on or off. I didn't know how much I would miss those switches; much better than having to go into menus or set a custom button.
