I used to think I needed F2.8 or even 1.8 all the time but ever since the a7III, the high iso noise is so well handled I feel fine shooting at 3200 or even 6400 now and getting very clean images. This lens being more compact is really valuable and the aperture ring controls are awesome.

I never shoot bigger than f4 outdoors anyways

More manufacturers should make compact constant aperture f4 zooms instead of massive "pro" shit as if anyone but an indoors wedding NPC needs f2.8

Seems kinda dumb when the tamron 28-75 2.8 g2 is only 40g heavier. This lens should have been ~350g, not 500.

rarely use anything wider than 28mm, and when I do, I already have the 20mm. f/2.8 is more useful than 8mm on the wide end.

Is it a real aperture ring? or similar to mirrorless focus where it's aperture-by-wire?

There isnt a single modern AF mirrorless lens that has a mechanical aperture or focus ring from any manufacturer.

$2k in Australia, you guys sure are winning, winning at being robbed.

So glad I didn’t fall for the mirrorless scam.

It's a standard zoom, don't be a retard.
Why would you need 20mm when that's gonna be covered by your 16-35 or 12-24 anyway?

None of their g range are Zeiss partnerships, they enrolled Zeiss to help them get as many lenses as possible out asap when e mount first started.

Can you explain how changing the aperture on the ring and having the lens aperture change is a larp?

It's just a poor kid that wants to believe his chinon M42 lens has any intrinsic value over new, superior equipment.

Pure copium.

That's 1400usd, or 93 hours at minimum wage, or 1\28 of median income ($40k USD)

In the usa it's $1100 before sales tax, and that's 151 hours at their minimum wage, or 1\28 of median income ($31k USD)

The usa is a scam. They're paying more as a poor person and the same as an average person, but then they still have to pay sales taxes, or other taxes, overall tax burden between the 2 countries is very similar.

Wide to normal (what 35mm users call "short tele") is a standard zoom

Applying stat wank to such a heterogenous country is a good way to lie. Just ask the chinese, and how they use selectively gathered statistics and low literacy standards presented as selectively as they were gathered to make it look like their billions of illiterate rural poor and homeless don't exist.

See the reality here

And ask yourself who is making $31k a year, rather than $78k (whites span from rural working poor who typically make 40-50k to city service industry execs making six figs and average out between the two pay grades) to $100k (asians in the US are largely opportunity seeking immigrants and almost exclusively live in cities, the ones that would make less stayed home)
