  • Sony just released the brand new Sony 16-25mm f/2.8 G. It's a compact wide-angle lens with a constant f/2.8 aperture, rich feature set, and fantastic optics. It's geared towards travel, everyday carry, and video creators to be the perfect wide-angle lens for the Sony full-frame system. Today we're going to check out the performance and see how it stacks up against the alternatives.

    Finally someone reviewing the new Sony 16-25mm also recommends the 16-35mm GM ii if you can swing it.

    Awesome review! Maybe you could do a video (or a short) showing how you assembled the POV Snorricam style rig around the 7:19 mark. Or if that's too much, could you maybe try explaining it once again in a comment? (I didn't fully understand it from what you said in the video, sorry!) Just really loved that shot!

    Do you like this as a companion lens to the 20-70 f4? I’m on a A7C with the 20-70, and love it, but do want something wider at times, but love the 70.

    Was planning to get this when I first saw this since I already bought the 24-50/2.8 G for my A7CR and A7CII travel kit. I ended holding off for now because I think 16-35/2.8 GM II is really only ~135 grams heavier, which I already own, and I also have the 12-24/4 G if I’m going wider. The final reason is back when I got my A7C I bought a used Sigma 16-28/2.8 DG DN Contemporary and it’s not that much bigger and heavier. It doesn’t have all the nice features as the Sony but it is internal zoom so not any longer. So going to try it first since it’s still smaller and lighter than either the GM II or the 12-24/4 G. Thank you for the video, take care.

    I have the A7CII and the 20-70 and would like something wider and faster. Also for astro. Would you rather take the 16-25 or the 14 mm GM?

  • @sashinger5230
    @sashinger5230 3 месяца назад +1

    Looks like a really good lens. I currently have the Sigma 16-28 and it's ok but I love what Sony did with the G line lately. A Sony lens on a Sony body is a whole different story... Already have the 20-70 G and the 70-200 f4 G II Macro and they are both excellent. Would love to see Sony dropping a few more G primes like an 85mm f1.8 G, a 35mm f1.8 G or a 16mm f1.8 G. Will be interesting to see how vignetting and distortion is being handled on the 16-25 as soon as the LR profile will be released. Thx for the video! ✌

    • @kylemeshna

      @@kylemeshna That's nice to know! Your comparison table was a bit of an eye opener for me in terms of the overall value... Love the low min focus distance and the 11 aperture blades for the sunstars they're able to create. Will have a look when it's available over here! ✌

    Thank you for the video. I’m really considering adding this lens to pair with the Sony 24-50/2.8 G I already bought and have. Already have the 16-35/2.8 GM II and even the Sigma 16-28/2.8 DG DN but I’m pairing this my compact C A7CR and A7CII for a travel kit. The larger GMII and G primes I use on my full size full frame A1 and A7RV. If I do buy it the Sigma 26-28/2.8 and 28-70/2.8 will go up for sale to someone who will use them. Take care.

    Did you have the chance to get a lens profile for Lightroom yet? If not, do you use another lens's profile or correct it yourself? Thank in advance.

    Wonder how this lens performs for Astro. I currently have Zeiss Batis 18mm but there are times I wished a had a wide angle zoom. Currently pair it with 24-105G for landscape.

    Great review ! I'm wondering if you can share the camera setting, shooting mode (assuming "M") , shutter speed, aperture , iso, of the great picture @4:28. I'm a really beginner and that information would be very helpful for taking my camera to a graduation ceremony of one of my family member. Thanks in advance.

      Buying it for that exactly. Looking to get into real estate photography and was going to get the sigma 14-24mm. But this is so much smaller and lighter and takes regular filters. Plus I want to use it for video as well. Some Astro and landscape too! Hyped.

    Great series review of the new Sony G zooms 16-25/2.8 ,24-50/2.8, and the 20-70/4 (I watched all)
    Which among the new Sony G zooms suits best as I have the bigger Sony A7IV and the ff lenses
    Samyang 24/1.8,
    Sigma 35/1,4, DG DN
    Sony 55/1.8
    Sigma 85/1.4 DG DN
    or should I go for a second camera body instead? (Sony A7Cii is waving!)
    I am a serious hobbyist and somehow looking for the flexibility of zoom when I go out with the family.
    Thanks. subd

    The picture quality is not G master, its bettered by the Tamron 17-28, it uses a lot of camera corrections to hide distortion and vignetting

      @NathanHassani-kr4bh 2 месяца назад

      I know, but look at all the sony lenses, there's not one ( do it all lens) not a single one available in a useful focal length, a lot of people only want to use one lens, and there simply isn't anything available in the sony lineup that can do that, either not wide enough, or not enough reach, there's one lens that comes close, 20-70 G 2.8 but at f4, wish sony would give us a 16-55mm or something, it would sell like crazy.
