Quality


I am happy with the 2470 the most


On the other hand i am really disappointed by the 1670 although has a better focal range for travel


I hear people saying the sharpness or rendering quality is not as good as gm version


With the rx100 it all fit in my jacket pocket

Price


The price has dramatically dropped since launch msrp of 1200


As far as price goes yeah ok its expensive


I think the biggest problem that folks have with this lens is the price

Packaging/appearance


I also have the 55mm and 35mm fe lenses that are rated higher than this and lenses from nikon and other makes that i can use on the a7r


I can see it in the rx100 and other lenses

Competitiveness


8 lens and supplement with rokinon 85mm 1


Ill keep my a6000 with kit lens for traveling


I consider the rx10 version i the best value travel camera available


If you have the sony a7s or a7r this is a must have lens

    If you are into pro market go for gm


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It was tough not giving this 5 stars because zeiss hardly ever fails to deliver


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I scrapped one star because corners are not sharp at 24 mm


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I find myself almost always choosing this camera rather than my a6000 or a7rii equipped with the 2470mm


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Only the corners at 24 are kind of out of focus but you wont noticed it unless youre a pixel peeper


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Very sharp images straight out of camera
