It really worked: Amazon is honoring your 16-35mm GM preorders for $1,700!

Screenshot of the original wrong pricing at Amazon

Back in May Amazon made the mistake to let you preroder the new 16-35mm GM lens for $1,698 only instead of the real $2,198 price. Plenty of SAR readers preordered the lens for that price but there was some concern that Amazon would “correct” the price once it ships. Well I have good news for you:

Our reader Trunip confirmed that his lens shipped today for the origina $1,698 price:

Well, you now saved $500 thanks to SAR’s quick tip ;)

–

The new lens is now shipping out at Bhphoto, Adorama, BestBuy and Amazon. In EU the lens is already in Stock since a while at Amazon DE, Amazon UK, Calumet DE, WexUK, Jessops.

Sony 12-24mm review by LL: “it is not a G-Master, but it should be.”

Share

Luminous Landscape posted their full Sony 12-24mm lens review

The 12-24 Sony lens is not a G-Master, but it should be.  It passed with flying colors for the kind of work I do.  It makes shooting wide-angle fun.  I often find myself taking this lens out of the bag and just having fun with it. I have complete confidence that it will give me sharp images with good contrast and no more distortion than expected. And, I know I can use Capture One to correct for some distortion, especially keystoning.
If you have a Sony system or are thinking of getting one, make sure this lens is in your kit. The price is more than fair when compared to Nikon and Canon. The weight will make using this lens a joy. I tip my hat to Sony for making such an incredible lens that I know many shooters will thoroughly enjoy.
