Your reviews have become the best and most useful. It’s fantastic to see Sony finally offering lenses up to the quality of their sensors. It looks like this joins the newest 35mm GM, 135mm GM and 50mm GM as true top drawer glass. The fact its performance is optimized for video compared to those primes is a bonus. Thank you.

Thanks for the teleconverter comparison. I spent the afternoon digging around for tests on the old 70-200 with 2x thinking about replacing my sigma 100-400 and Tamron 70-180 with this and the tc. I'm just on an a9 so I'm curious how the sharpness comparison is with 24mp now. Fantastic review as always!

Thank you, Gerald. I have the mk I of this lens, and I was curious to hear your recommendation for upgrading. Besides the weight reduction, I didn't hear anything super compelling for me to upgrade, but I was wondering what other owners of the original version think about in terms of upgrade and what they find is important to them.
@Martin-nu6ym
@Martin-nu6ym 2 года назад
I have the A1, the mk 1 with and without the 1.4x teleconverter handled nicely for me at 10 fps in a low light no flash allowed event. The mark 1 also does pretty good for infrared photography on a converted camera I use. The one kilo savings, close focusing capabilities, and the ability to handle the AF of the A1 for the more demanding fps might be my reason for upgrading but I do have the 100-400 GM and 135 GM to assist.

Hi Gerald, this is totally unrelated to your video but I've been trying unsuccessfully to find an ac power source for a Sony a1. I bought a tether tools on site relay and it doesn't deliver enough power to run the camera. What brand have you found? I know you use a kondor blue dummy battery but what brand of adapter do you use?

I know that many people don't like to compare primes with zooms in their reviews. But what can be expected in terms of sharpness when putting the Sony GM 135mm 1.8 @ 2.8 next to this lease @ 135mm? Obviously the prime is going to be sharper (especially this 135mm one), I just wonder whether that's by a large degree or more on a reasonable side.
