I like to save my readers money, time, aggravation.

See my original thoughts from a few weeks ago on what one might expect from the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II, based on what Sony called out as changes/improvements. Suffice it to say that I rarely end up in a different place than what seemed likely.

For my short but incredibly important* assessment of the Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II, based on comparing to the Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM (no examples shown yet). see the initial impressions section of the Sony FE 16-35/2.8 GM II introduction page.

* Important if you have any intention of doing the kind of photography that I do.
