Re: Pre-orders open! Sony A7R III and FE 24-105mm f/4 OSS lens!
I am going to wait on the 24-105. I am using the C/Y 35-70 and think it works well for stopped down landscape. I prefer primes for walk around. I am, as usual, frustrated by the lack of good data on new lenses from any manufacturer other than Zeiss and Leica re MTF graphs. The Sony graphs are fictional as they don't account for diffraction and they are only computer modeled. Even to the extent they are accurate, the only to to 30LPM instead of 40 with Leica and Zeiss and 50 from some other sources like Lens Rentals. Thus, while some Sony lenses have been remarkable performers (12-24/4, 100 STF, 85 GM in my experience), it is really hard to know how good this new longer range zoom will be. Thus, I will wait for folks here to give some reliable reports....
