Sony 20-70mm f/4 G Lens - Brand New review

For decades, full-format standard zoom lenses have been confined to the 24-XX or 28-XXmm range. This only changed very recently in 2020 when Panasonic released their Lumix S 20-60mm f/3.5-5.6 lens.

Worth It! Sony FE 20-70mm F4 G Review

My brother and I took a few hikes in Ireland this summer with our beloved cameras. Lucas recently bought a new Sony camera body and was still on the hunt for his perfect lens. He owns a 24-70 and a 70-200, and he wanted something a bit wider, but didn’t want to buy a third lens.
Pros:
  • Versatile, It handles very well in subzero temps, Plenty of character, Lightweight and compact, Sharp, Beautiful colors
Cons:
  • Noticeable barrel distortion, Lens hood produces black vignette at widest focal length, It’s easy to get deep blacks, and that’s not necessarily bad
