Dammit Joshua ...this is not the sort of thing I need to see - got major craving for that lens. And wow it's amazing in your hands! Incredibly clean, with superb contrast and sharpness.

Anything to help a fellow Sony FMer spend his/her money here, David. Just kidding .
If you buy one within the affected serial number range, you could get a deal. Or you can buy a lens that's outside the affected range. I bought mine several months ago before there was a recall. Although I didn't see anything wrong with mine but since its S/N was within the affected range, I sent it in to Sony. They did turn it around in a day plus overnight shipping both ways and I got it back in 3 days. They paid for the shipping, BTW.
Awesome after rain images with specular colors, David!
Looking at Dark Hollow Falls; a storm had dumped 16 inches of rain on the Park weeks before and the water was abnormally high.

I took a very quick business trip to Scottsdale, AZ and made a run-up to Sedona for a late afternoon shoot at Red Rock Park. I wanted to give my 16-35 GM and 24-105 G a little run to see how they work together in the field. I really liked them both and they made for a nice set of zooms. I would normally take my 12-24 G as well but with such a tight schedule, I wanted to give these two some work. Here are a few from the trip.
