Best Sony Standard Zoom lens? FE 24-50 f2.8 G vs FE 20-70 f4 G vs FE 24-70 f2.8 GMII Richard Wong 2024-03-02 | The new Sony FE 24-50mm f/2.8 G has quite a small zoom range, only just over 2x, but the size and weight are smaller than the typical f/2.8 zoom lens. What is the performance of this lens? Is it worth considering? Could it be the best standard zoom lens for Sony E full frame users? I compared it with the Sony FE 20-70 f/4G and the Sony FE 24-70 f/2.8 GMaster II so we can see which is the best lens out of these three.Camera gear I used to shoot this video:Panasonic Lumix S5II | Lumix S 24mm f/1.8Zeapon Axis SliderSynco D2 MicrophoneDisclaimer: The product sample I used in this video was sent to me by the manufacturer for this review.
