    Sony 24-70 F4 Lens

    Love that shot, but might not have liked standing there to shoot it. http://forum.getdpi.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif Good to know about the clearness. Now I won't hesitate looking for distant crops. I will be on a guided 12 day trip around the island by a pro photographer. Could be up...

    Sony 24-70 F4 Lens

    This is my first trip. I will have WATE and 70-400G2 zooms with me, along with 28, 35 and 55 primes. I usually don't like shooting landscape vignettes through allot of atmosphere. The long zoom is more for birds. How does that sound? Have you seen the weird A7r lockup I mentioned?

    Sony 24-70 F4 Lens

    How would the Leica Elmarit-R 28mm E55 lens compare to the 28-90 at 28? I've looked at the MTF and other charts from Putts. They say the latter has about 1% more distortion (~3% instead of ~2%) and the MTF charts don't look as good on the zoom at 28. But I don't know if this would translate...

    Help needed from 24-70 F4 OSS users

    I posted a thread on DPR that might help: A7r: FE 24-70mm F4 Tests: Sony Alpha/NEX E-mount Talk Forum: Digital Photography Review I added more information and pictures in posts further down, as well. Hope this helps! I have not noticed the issues you describe, but maybe I missed them?
