Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM Review

It’s the chasm in price differential that makes these arguments in favor of the Sigma so compelling. They allow for people to claim that that Sigma’s value is unparalleled. We can argue for the use cases for the GM, but for most the 110% price difference is insurmountable. And yes, at closer to 2k the value proposition of the GM improves quite a bit.

I think if sony placed this at the mid or lower 2k range it would sell much easier, or those who have EDU discount will more likely buy it. Still, innovation is very expensive so I can understand the price.
