A little handheld trial while I try to see what is worth selling and what is worth keeping... two shots at 200 and 400. Not disgraceful by any means though AF is very slow and uncertain and seems to miss about 1/3rd of the time.
Useable at a pinch, maybe even a nice slightly soft look for certain landscapes, but probably not really worth keeping.

I also tried the 24-104 F4. Sloooow AF (sometimes about a second, often several seconds, sometimes just refuses. Seems better a the edges than the Sony 24-70 at the wide end, notably worse at 70mm. Overall the Sony seems better but I'll need to do some more rigorous tests... but the 100-400 is better at 100 than the 24-105 is 105...
