Hello,
I am considering this lens in combination with the Metabones IV Canon EOS to Sony FE adapter.
Many people report it is optically superior to the Nikon equivalent, with much lower distortion.
I would like to use the smaller Zeiss 16-35mm OSS but I am afraid it would have the same issues the 24-70mm did and possibly manufacturing defects.
My Zeiss ZA 24-70mm f2.8 has a noticeable wobble in the zoom barrel, even when set to the 24mm lens setting when it is fully retracted.
Sony customer service was "NICE" enough to give me an estimate of $1200 to repair the defect in the lens, which I found to be an insult to a customer with 4 lenses and a significant investment in Sony Alpha and Sony FE equipment.
My educated guess is they would just replace the entire lens module or give me a new lens.
The lens has had this defect since the day I purchased it.
Any ideas?
Best regards,
Mike
