I think I'm going to get this lens, since it will be highly unlikely that Sony will release any Zeiss lenses in this range, now that they have a 70-200, 70-300 and 70-400 to cover it.
I wonder if any of you guys are using it, and would like to hear your impressions.
I understand that the 70-200 and 70-400 may be better performers, but:
Having the Zeiss 85 and 135, there is little interest in the 70-200 as the only FL not covered is the 200mm.
I'm also discouraged by the weight and size of the 70-400, even though it may have better sharpness and longer reach. It will be a lens seldom used and will remain mostly at home.
So the best choice for me seems to be the 70-300 as it is light-weight at 760 grams and quite compact. The price is quite affordable too.
Please let me know your opinions about this lens and thanks in advance.
