Unboxing by Hanna Saba

German unboxing video:

Rafal: “I had the opportunity to make a quick comparison of the Sony A7R3 with the A7R2 mainly in terms of filming. The difference in favor of the A7R3 is huge. On the blog I put clippings from 1: 1 frames taken at different ISO. For FHD, but successively I will complement it (4K, tonal range, etc.). They will also link to the source files. http://rafalglebowski.pl/blog/sony-a7r3-vs-sony-a7r2/”

Review of the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 G Master Lens by Dylan Giannakopoulos

Share

This is a guest post from Dylan Giannakopoulos. Original article at dylangiannaphotography.com.au

Review of the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 G Master Lens

Reviewed by Dylan Giannakopoulos – 16th November 2017

Yick Fat Building - ISO 100 | f/8 | 30s | 24mm

Yick Fat Building – ISO 100 | f/8 | 30s | 24mm

The Sony Vario-Tessar T* FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS Lens is by far my most frequently used lens and an overall favourite of mine, so when Sony announced the release of their FE 16-35mm f/2.8 G Master wide angle zoom lens, I was dying to get my hands on it for a comparison. For this review, I wanted to put less of a focus on pixel peeping and stress more about the aspects of the lens which I found to have a discernible impact on image quality and usability.

It was important for me to test the G Master in similar situations that I frequently use my Sony FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA in. On my recent trip to Beijing and Hong Kong, I left my 16-35mm f/4 ZA lens at home and took the 16-35mm f/2.8 G Master with me. I’ve done a lot of travelling with the f/4 ZA, so I knew this was going to be a perfect opportunity to see which lens I preferred.
