Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM Aperture Series @ 12mm: Late Day Sunlight on Desert Slope
See my Sony mirrorless wishlist.
This series on the 60-megapixel Sony A7R IV evaluates the Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM from f/2.8 through f/8 for across the field sharpness and total performance as to general landscape photography.
The 24mm end of the zoom range looks to be the weak end of the range, but the landscape photographer won’t mind much if good things result with moderate stopping down—let’s look at that.
Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM Aperture Series @ 12mm: Late Day Sunlight on Desert Slope
Includes images at up to full camera resolution from f/2.8 through f/8 with crops.
The about $2998 Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM, sets the gold standard for ultra-wide lenses, zoom or prime against which all other lenses in its range now need to be referenced.
