Review on πŸ“· Sony FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM Wide-Angle Zoom Lens (SEL1635GM) - Black by Hideo Tsuchida ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

In comparison with other analogues, this lens is the King. In the reviews of other brands I read shortcomings - dust, moisture permeability, Such a shortcoming will not compensate for the cheap criterion. We are not rich people to buy cheap things. Yes, and then live all my life with a dream to sell the worst and buy this handsome man. You need to take optics right away so that you don’t sell it, but use it constantly.

Pros
  • 1. The lens is as strong as a portrait shot (excellent sharpness, great blur) 2. Indispensable when traveling. A trip to Hong Kong when filming in mosques was simply a pleasure. Sharpness, color reproduction, the ability to zoom in and crop the view. 3. Nimble, there are no mistakes if you don’t make a mistake yourself. 4. I really like the design, build quality. I visited the conditions of rain, dense fog in the mountains with a sharp change in temperature. Tested for moisture resistance and a sharp change in temperature withstood. But then the screen on Sonya (7M3) stopped showing, I shot through the reticle (this is a drawback of this series of models, I met a similar review in reviews from others). After drying, the performance of the screen was restored.
Cons
  • 1. The presence of distortion, which can be partially corrected in processing. I am posting a photo without processing. 2. When shooting a group of people, the faces of the extreme people on the front are distorted. This is fixable - it is better to move further and then closer. 3. Price, weight. But this criterion is objective. You can't fool good optics. And the price matches the quality.
