Review: Best lens you'll ever use. - The Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM II Lens is an exceptional lens that lives up to its big reputation. The image quality is incredibly sharp from edge to edge, with beautiful color rendition and contrast. Low light performance is excellent. The autofocus is fast, precise, and quiet, perfect for both photography and video work. The build quality feels solid and durable, yet it’s surprisingly manageable to carry around for a professional zoom lens. Whether you’re shooting portraits, landscapes, or events, this lens is versatile and reliable, making it a great investment for serious photographers. The "Tight/Loose" switch is a bit "Odd" feeling. Almost crunchy. I checked out a few lenses at my local BestBuy and all felt the same.

Despite its high performance, it remains surprisingly compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry around for extended periods.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hello is this a good first lens for a beginners first camera (sony a7c)?**
A: To second what Sammy said, this is the BEST general use, mid-level zoom in it’s class for this camera. It is professional grade and is thus very expensive.

If looking for a beginners lens, I would start with the f/4 or Sigma/Tamron variants as the differences in image quality will not be a deal-breaker and/or very noticeable for someone first starting off.

Of course, if you can afford it and it’s within your budget, you can’t get any better than this in the 24-70mm range. Otherwise, save a huge chunk of money and get the variants. 

Hope this helps!

**Q: What are the differences between this lens and the original Sony 24-70 GM?**
A: Hello. Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. The key differences between the SEL2470GM and SEL2470GM2 are that the version 2 is smaller and lighter, faster and more precise autofocus performance, an additional custom button, as well as a few other internal changes that are explained in more detail on the Sony website.

Sincerely,

Nick

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent service and lens!
*by S***Y on November 28, 2025*

I contacted the seller about FedEx attempting to deliver my lens to my neighbor (they weren’t home and unable to sign). They answered me right away after the holiday and made sure they made it to my house on the next attempt. Super happy with this seller! The lens itself is awesome so far. I tried it out right away to ensure it made it alright after being shuffled around with delivery. Will report back once I’ve had a chance to play and edit!
