DPReview Reader’s Choice Awards 2024: Sony 28-70mm GM is one of the Products of the Year
Here are the results of the DPreview readers awards. The top 3 best products are:
My take on the single products:
1) The Nikon Z6III (Amazon, B&H Photo, Adorama) has the speed to beat the Sony A7IV, but the latter has better image quality (more resolution, a much wider dynamic range) and world-class autofocus. The soon the be announced Sony A7V needs to catch up in speed to beat the Nikon.
2) The Canon R5II (Amazon, B&H Photo, Adorama) is a hit. I like it and I think Sony should be worried about this camera model. It’s the one reason why I think Sony might anticipate the A7rVI launch to end 2025 (instead of 2026).
3) The Sony 28-70mm GM (Amazon, B&H Photo, Adorama) is a stunner. It proves once again that Sony is a leader in optical design technology. It is a pound lighter than the Canon and still optically superior. What more can you ask for? Ah yes… now I want a 70-150mm f/2.0 GM :)
Overall I would have put the Canon in first place and the Sony lens just behind. In third place I would not have chosen the Nikon…. but the FujiFilm X-M5. I know I am an anomaly here :)
What would have been your top three?
