I've owned Canon and Sony 70-200mm f2.8 lenses. While great lenses, they are big and heavy. So, I now shoot the 70-200mm f4 Sony lens. It produces very sharp images and is much smaller and lighter than the f2.8 version. Since I mainly shoot landscapes, I don't really need a faster lens. It's great for travel too.

I have Tamron 28-75 and going to complete my range with Sony 70-200 f/4 and Sigma 100-400 f/4.5 f/6.3. On a wide range, I have not decided yet. Probably just a prime one, like 20mm f/1.8. Anything above 70mm must be with OOS, that is why I am rejecting any Tamron lens above 70mm.

I personally used the 70-200 F4 on my A7RIII, very happy with it's performance but compared to a friend's Sigma 105 it was probably 10-20% less sharp (both on A7RIII). The two of us could easily distinguish between each other's lenses on client shoots, but clients didn't see any difference. I ended up selling mine but only because I had approx. $1200 into it (used), which in my opinion was still too much based on what I could get for the same money from other lenses.

I have often wondered if I should sell the 70-300 to help fund this lens instead. I've used the GM version in the past and it's nice, but not worth the price for what I shoot. Not interested in the Tamron 70-180 or 70-300 either.

I used to have this, loved it, had to sell it due to financial issues. When I re-bought a telephoto zoom, I got the tamron, but barely used it as it just wasn’t as nice a lens to use. It also got sold and now I’m looking at buying a telephoto zoom again and I’m probably going to go back to this as I miss how versatile it is. The only negative is low light, but I’d rather use a prime in low light situations anyway.

I made incredible images with this lens on 2017 In Austria, with just a7iii sensor. The lens may not be as sharp as the tamron, but absolutely no one will notice that and I'm kind of unhappy that tamron cheap out their lenses way to much, no even a tripod collar?, no OSS?, absolutly no true that oss will make the lens bigger, see batis 85 or sigma 100-400 dgdn. . I only will trade this lens for a possible sigma 70-200 if it come as good as the 100-400. A year ago pop up a rumor about that Sigma which could only weight 1.050kg. At the time I couldn't believe it but after the Sony g2, that can be indeed possible.

I reckon its only 12 effective mega pixels based on sharpness. I have the 24mm GM and the 55mm 1.8 Sony Zeiss as comparison. So I never liked the 70-200 f4 G lens. On the a7r4 the images are totally unacceptable. Maybe I have a bad copy? What do you think?
