I don't know that Chris also did another genre beside the "hump&bump" from his latest b-boy album.

I never payed enough attention to “Loca”, but now my whole lens evaluation approach is completely changed. Thank you guys. With you learning is fun

Another awesome video. The most amazing thing was at 4:52 where the scooters in the background now come with helmets! It's about time. Hope to see that in the US sometime soon too.

Great review as always.

Great review! I was trying to decide if the mark ii was worth the money, answered all my questions!

Sounds like a great addition for video (for me!) THanks for the great video! 👍

The fact you always make great content in that barren wasteland known as Canada is a testiment to your creativity and skill. Bravo DPReview TV

Really hope you get your hands on the Nikon Z lenses soon, especially the 24-120 f4, but also the 24-70 f2.8. Would also be very interesting to mention the competitors on different mounts just to compare which system to buy into if one is not already engaged to a specific brand.

waiting for your review. nice as always

Thanks guys, the first review I always watch about a new product. I loved the videos you did before about what would you get with a certain budget. I was wondering if you could do a series when you think about what would your first choice be if you wanted a body and wide angle lens, a body and 24-70mm, a body and 400mm, a body and macro lens. Would be interesting to see what your choices would be in the various ‘primary lens’ categories would be. Oh and also some video stuff for Jordan or whatever 🤣

is it better than 20 gm 1.8 sir? i still confused to decide between 24gm prime or this zoom lenses @__@

Nice reviews as it has always been. Wish to see Jordan to comment on its video capability as well since this seems be emphasized in Sony's promo.

Nice to see a full pro lens which has a bohkay rendering which looks smooth but still kinda bubbly.

Best reviews on the internet!

is this lense compatible with all/most sony full frame mirrorless bodies? thanks

An aperture ring? Cool

Love the content

Thanks for this review. Obviously another great performing lens from Sony but I shall stick with my Tamron 28-75.

Would love to see an update “shootout” of the camera tiers with their updated firmwares. Would just be a fun video to see you guys do!

Hey, did you test sunstars at f22 as well? The original Tamron 28-75 actually does really nice sunstars at f22.

My favorote Canadians! Haha Great video. For the price and tech, wish it was internal zoom. Still wishing for a 28-70 f2. For now given that tamron 35-150 2-2.8 is out, the 24-70 v2 has competition.

How can I get this lens on my M43 GX85? Is there an adapter dor this?

Wait! Snow and slush on APRIL 27th? Yikes. Great video, and as always, nice hair, LOL

Should I sell my 90mm 2.8 macro, 28mm f2, and zeiss 24-70 f4 for this? I used to have the 85mm f1.8 but sold that to buy the 90mm macro. But now that this is out and the macro looks good enough for my uses, should i just combine most of what i have into one killer 24-70 range? I have a 12-24 f4 and the 70-200 f4 so i still have a wide range to shoot.

Really useful focal range. It's like combining your 24-34 and 36-70 zooms into one lens!

Do you think it's worth upgrading from the original version 1? The 70-200 v2 seemed like a huge improvement over the original, this does not.

Lovely review, I would like to know what's your camera bag 🙂

Appreciated. Greetings from the gutter that is Sony APS-C and where spending $2000 on a lens is unimaginable. :)

I always felt like my copy of the 24-70GM was a tad mushy, especially compared to the 16-35GM which is incredibly sharp. Hopefully the new one bridges the gap.

@Rebel Hikes I suspect it won't be updated soon - it's by far the best of the original trinity, and nothing made by competitors has challenged it substantially. I'd rather see Sony focus on the other f/4 zooms, which are woefully outdated.

@1:16 I see a poor naked man with his frozen dongle :P Nice shot Chris! hahaha

Nice lens but still expensive for me, it’s my problem 😂

Going to sell my original for this one. Even if I sell it pretty low at least I can use it towards the new one.

I would Love a 24-70/2.8 Battle, including the Samyang 24-70/2.8, to answer the question, What's for Who?

Glad my tamron 28-75 g2 is still competing

I wish my 2.8/16-55 had that tight zoom setting. I shoot with it facing straight down pretty often, and it always creeps. Also, Chris, it's a *12* to 24. Not 14!

24-70 F2.8 GM ii what is Lens Filter Thread size ??

im shocked at the price. i knew it was going to be a lot but holy shit. i figured they would have it at $1999 USD but $2300..... i paid $800 for the tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III VXD G2. that's 1/3'd the price. and i could go and pick up 70-180 to go with it and still have $300 left over....

Very good review. I will stick with my Tamron 28-75 though as it’s a marvel at the price.

Most amazing is how far Tamron seems to have come in building a real competitor to the 24-70 GM II. According to your review of Tamron's first version of the 28-75, it was far behind the optical quality of the first 24-70 GM. That gap seems to have closed quite a bit with both companies' second versions.

@@hardywoodaway9912 Agreed. The Tamron is optically very sharp. Bokeh is a bit distracting, but is a great all round lens.

If I had the money, I would get this and the 70-200/2.8 II. End up getting Tamron 28-75 G2 and 70-180 for 70% of the price of this one.

7:19 old version easily beats the new one at 24 mm.

I’m glad that they FINALLY updated the 24-70 since the G1 was a terrible lens for the E mount and the worst 24-70 when compared to Canon, Nikon, and Fuji

I noticed that the color on GH6 is a little bit better than the Z9 here.

Sad that Sony blocked Tamron's 24-70 F2.8, buying shares, and that's why they had to release the 28-75 F2.8.

waiting for christopher frost to review this lens

I'll stick with my Sigma. Its only 4 oz heavier. I wouldn't say that's a massive difference.

I see no bright distracting ghosts at 5:40

why is it so good but yet I feel no tingle ?

The new Samyang 24-70 is another option. Having never bought one, I was slightly wary of the brand, but after giving it a go, I would choose it over the Sigma and Sony models. They are all pretty evenly matched.

@@bondgabebond4907 I wouldn't be surprised if they make a PZ-version of the current 24-105mm f4, to complement the newly announced 16-35mm f4 PZ. Sony's lens line-up has always been a bit thin on dedicated video lenses, and I think they may further expand in that field. Then you have the 24-70mm f2.8 GM or f4 Zeiss as photo lenses and the 24-105mm f4 G PZ as video lens next to the current non-PZ version. That may make sense for them to do?

@@Edwin-- I've been away from shooting for too many years. In the mid 70s, I started and we had all those wonderful manual film cameras. Videos were those bulky VHS units that started out as a two piece package. But now, with so many people using their little camera for both stills and videos, lens makers should look at how they make their zoom lens. The internal zooming lens is far superior in zooming vs the typical way of turning a ring and moving a set of glass back and forth in the main body. That introduces shake. So, my wish, my hopes is that Sony starts making more PZ lens, particularly for the professional video folks. For stills, the PZ works just great. Look at the reviews of the 16-35mm PZ lens just introduces. It is getting great reviews for excellence in sharpness. I probably will get on. The prices is great, not overly expensive. If Sony does as you mention, a PZ 24-105 f4, that would be simply incredible. Two lens to rule the world.

@@bondgabebond4907 I fully agree and hope they will. I think Sony attracts a lot of pro video creators, many of whom will be news shooters and documentary filmmakers with FX3, 6 and 9's who do not have very large budgets and crews. They wouldn't buy USD 5000+ cine lenses. Sony offers great cameras for them, but the lens line-up isn't great, they can get by. I have shot with the old Sony 28-135mm f/4.0 G OSS PowerZoom, but that is not a nice lens to use. It is a bit soft and doesn't produce a nice image, yet is very heavy and pricey (I got it 2nd hand and sold it). The 24-105mm f4 produces a nicer image, is much lighter, but focus breaths a bit and isn't parfocal. I think this may still be a reason videomakers reach for other brands, and Sony should address this because for example Canon has a large line-up of lenses for broadcast applications and Fuji produces some too.

I just need someone to tell me which one to buy arrrrgggghhhhh

With that price tag I'll just use the Sigma

i ant an 17-18-20 to 40-45-50-55 - ish. f4 with the same featureset of the new 16-34 f4, probably wont happen soon. :(
