From an optical quality point of view, there is not a lot to say against this 24-70mm GM lens. Sharpness is definitely its strongest point: the results are excellent all the way through, at all focal lengths and all main apertures from corner to corner. The AF motor is fast and the distortion is contained. Bokeh can be excellent at the right distance and focal length and deliver pleasant results for casual portraits or close-ups. You can find some little traces of purple fringing but the only annoying aspect really is veiling and ghost flares in certain backlit situations.

Given the emphasis on the high-grade components and construction to match the maker’s high-resolution sensors, we had high hopes for the Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM, and we weren’t disappointed. It is the best-performing zoom in the maker’s range and can easily hold its own against the new AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm F2.8E ED VR. However, for edge-to-edge to sharpness, the Sony isn’t quite in the same league as the Canon EF 24-70mm F2.8L USM II, but we still have to add the Sony A7RII to propose a fair comparison with the 50 Mpix Canon EOS 5DSR. Nevertheless, the Sony does have certain strengths — better transmission and lower lateral chromatic aberration than many high-grade primes — and while certainly pricey, it’s still a competitive and tempting addition to the range.

24-70mm review
Most photographers will find the FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM lens to be a versatile 'walkaround' lens that is a good match for Sony's α7 'full frame' camera bodies. Its wide maximum aperture makes it ideal for low light use and also for isolating subjects from distracting backgrounds. But it also makes this lens relatively expensive.
With apertures selectable from f/2.8 to f/22, there's plenty of scope for differential focusing and experimenting with selective focus control. However, the edge softness we detected may make it unsuitable for landscape and architectural photographers who require shots to be sharp corner-to-corner.

The Sony 85mm ƒ/1.4 GM lens is the start of a new chapter for Sony lenses, a new tier of ultra-premium, professional-grade lenses. Sony claims the new FE-mount 85mm ƒ/1.4 G Master lens is the "ultimate portrait lens," and after our testing they just might be right.

The Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM is the new benchmark standard zoom for Sony's full-frame camera range, but it's also an incredibly expensive lens too, almost rivalling the equivalent Canon and Nikon optics in terms of price
