SonyAlphaBlog concluded:
The PZ 16-35mm F4G is an very good all around 16-35 zoom and excellent in video.
For photos if you go with the Sony FE 16-35 mm F2.8 GM you will gain only in the corners and only at 50-61 Mix
For video production the PZ 16-35 F4 G is more handy on a day to day than the excellent but very bulky Sony FEC 16-35mm T3.1 which is more reserved for static production on tripod
Photographyblog concluded:
Overall, the FE PZ 16-35mm F4 G is a better fit for videographers than photographers, who may not appreciate the slower, looser, unlabeled power zoom control which replaces the traditional mechanical zoom.
On the other hand, it’s precisely that technological development which makes the FE PZ 16-35mm F4 G the smallest ultra-wide-angle zoom lens currently available for Sony Alpha full-frame cameras, so even photographers who only ever shoot stills should seriously consider this lens for its unique blend of portability, features and image quality.

Marc from SonyAlphaBlog tested the new lens and concluded:
Globally The Sony 24-70mm F2.8 GMII is a new masterpiece that will sit well next to the Sony 70-200mm F2.8 GM II OSS
If you own the Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN Art then, it is not required to upgrade is you have the A7II or A7IV , but if you have the A1 or A7RIV you will notice a clear difference
Is it worth 2 times the price ? No , but if you want the best in all domains the GMII is the way to go. If you want the best for the money then the Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN Art stays the preferred option
And this is Hanna Sabas take on the new GM II:

Sony Xperia 1IV at BHphoto, Adorama.
As you now the Sony Xperia 1IV is the first smartphone with a built-in optical telezoom. Sony is betting high on this kind of devices and a Sony manager just recently said he expects smartphones to exceed the image quality of mirrorless cameras in 2024 (I think this is just marketing BS).
Still, Sony clearly wants to be seen as the maker of the smartphones with the best Photo/Video Image Quality. Here is Marques Brownlee exciting take of the new 1IV:
