Sony FE 24-70mm f/4 ZA OSS Zeiss Vario-Tessar T* SEL2470Z
I bought this lens despite the reviews. All I can say is that on my A7R sharpness is good and provided you stay within 26-60mm I see very little difference between F4 and F8 in the corners. At the 2 extremes there is some blur in the corners so they are best avaided
Pros:
- Small
- quite light
- very well built and sharp
Cons:
- F4..

Outstanding
Being in transition from Nikon to Sony; I was hoping to use the Commlite adaptor on my 24-70E f2.8 VR as it is an amazing lens. However, the adaptor proved next to useless, particularly as the recent upgrade excluded E lines!! So my 24-70 was sold as soon as I could obtain the GM.

Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM
The FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM is the zoom lens that serious photographers were clamoring for when Sony first launched its full-fame mirrorless system. An f/2.8 standard zoom is a must-have lens for anyone covering events.
Pros:
- Very sharp results
- Wide-aperture f/2.8 design
- Solid build quality
- Weather-sealed design
Cons:
- Pricey
- Noticeable distortion
- Omits image stabilization

Carl-Zeiss Vario-Tessar T* FE 24-70mm f/4 ZA OSS (Sony SEL2470Z) - Review / Test Report
The Carl Zeiss Vario Tessar T* FE 24-70mm f/4 OSS ZA didn't really convince us completely - not at this price point for sure. While it is a joy to use the lens thanks to its high quality finish and super smooth controls, the optical characteristics aren't quite as impressive.

Im loving this lens.
I have recently move to Sony after 16+ years as a pro Canon user. I sold my first canon lens - the 24-70 f.8 L when moving to Sony. The Sony lens is incredible sharp and along with the eye focus, is amazing. Id recommend this lens to everyone as a base lens!

It's just OK
I love this focal range but not this lens. I'm shooting at ISO's of 500 and 800 and I'm still getting noisy images, way more noise than I feel one should get at these ISO's. At this price I'm disappointed with it overall as it is not nearly as sharp as my ancient Nikkor 28-70 f/2.8 D lens which I...

Everything People Say It Is And More!
Sony has really set a new precedent with their GM glass and this really showcases it. They've somehow figured out how to encapsulate all of the desirable optical qualities you'd get with a very good prime into a zoom.

It's a Zoom - what did you expect
It's hard to describe how much I like the A7r - but one of the things that comes with it is that punishing 36MP sensor. I knew in my heart that a mid-level (but premium priced) zoom lens would not be perfect - but my hopes were high.
