Sony FE 20-70mm f/4 G Objektiv

Awesome lens for travel, family trips. Great sharpness with wonderful contrast and colors.

Great lens. Compact and light, covers most focus lengths for my needs and spends most time on camera against my other lenses. I would recommend Sony photographers to have a look at this lens.

Only negative is that there is no zoom lock to stop lens expanding when you carry it over your shoulder.

Very impressed with the results obtained with this lens. It’s compact design and light weight were additional features that swayed me in it’s the purchase.

I have only had this lens for one month but cant take it off my camera, its small and compact with a great range. The lens performs well at all focal lengths and is sharp across the whole image, I swapped my 24-105 to this lens and it has been a game changer, the extra 4mm width is amazing, its so sharp cropping in to compensate for the reduced max zoom isn't a problem. If you want a sharp. lightweight lens this is the one.

Bought the 20 - 70 f4 recently, having owned a Sony 24- 105 f4 for some time. The new lens is superior in my opinion in all regards. Resolution and contrast is top notch. Remarkably, at 20mm f5.6, it gives the acclaimed 20mm f1.8 at the same aperture a run for its money with quality virtually indistinguishable. Autofocus is spot on and reliable. Weight and size are perfect for an A7 series body.

The only negative for me is that there is quite strong field curvature at the wide end. This is only really something you have to consider for distant shots such as landscapes where the focus plane can be closer at the edges than the centre of the frame This is largely resolved by making sure the you focus the center on the most distant point in the frame. To be clear I am not referring to the barrel distortion that is corrected either in camera on jpegs or in software from raw images. I am not at all bothered by this and it is completely corrected for all but the most critical applications. Overall I would highly recommend.

A great all-in-one lens for general day-to-day photos and especially useful for travel on a Sony A7CII. Really good resolution under most lighting conditions. A slight amount of 'noise' is noticeable when 'pixel-peeping' when used in dark interior setting but that's not surprising given that it's an f4 lens.

Not used it yet for video so cannot comment on this aspect.

Highly recommended given its size, weight and focal range.

Bought this for use when travelling good single lens

This lens is a good travel lens is very versatile the wide at 20 is enough at 70 you can use crop for a further zoom . Is a very light . Would have been good if can get this lens at 2.8 but then it would be less portable

I have been using this lens for over 9 months now and have been very pleased with the results. It produces very sharp images and covers most of my general photographic needs. The extra 20 mm wide angle helps me capture those dramatic landscapes and images are surprisingly crisp and sharp for a lens in this price bracket.

It’s also my ‘go to lens‘ for when I go on holidays
