Software corrections are here to stay. And that’s a good thing. Distortion and vignetting are very easy to correct for in software. You sacrifice in some areas and gain in others while keeping size and weight down. This lens is significantly lighter than the F mount version while outperforming it optically. That’s thanks to digital corrections. Did you know what what your eyeball sees is corrected to an incredibly high degree by your brain “software”. The eyeball is only sharp in the very centre of projection.

There are outlier markets such as Australia which due to location and small size of market can have quite substantial differences compared to other markets

All mirrorless lenses are using software corrections whether we like it or not , the lenses are explicitly designed to be used this way . I think the rationale is in exchange for allowing software to fix vignette and distortion the lens designers are in turn able to give optically sharper lenses . The main impact of these corrections would in theory be a touch more noise in the corners.But given the performance of modern sensors it is a bit moot

I would argue that for some common uses of a fast 24-70 (weddings, outdoor portraits) the terrible LoCA and poor backlit performance of the Canon RF competitor would be bigger concerns than any shortcomings of this lens. It's a bit of a stretch to flatly call this lens overpriced while the Canon is merely labeled highly priced, especially when the Z6/7 have very capable IBIS. I wouldn't consider either lens overpriced if you have a need for it, nor would I label the IS-lacking EF equivalent overpriced.

The only saving grace is Canon also sells a 28-70F2. Their 24-70IS RF is nothing to write home about. I like Canon's lens roadmap a bit more than Nikon at least f1.8RF primes are targeting low end and f1.2RF primes also available. Both ends of the market are more important than the middle ground Nikon tries to fulfill first, a bunch of seemingly expensive f1.8 primes, although optically better than competition, and cheaper than f1.4 rivals, are still in noman's land.

In the meantime I'm using my Z6 with the kit lens Z 24-70mm f/4S which is a good lens. I'm using my AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED with the FTZ adapter and it's working fine. Having this Z lens will cost me an arm, so for the time being I'm not buying new Z lenses. I have a FUJIFILM ecosystem too, so it's a huge amount of money to invest over time.

I came back to this review after owning this lens for a couple of years. While this lens is my favorite for general use and will continue to be for a while, I've got my fingers crossed for an updated version of this lens, preferably with an internal zoom mechanism like their 24-70mm lenses for DSLRs. My copy has gotten a bit of dust ingress over time (although that could be exacerbated by living in a dry, dusty climate), and I think an internal zoom with improved optics would remedy that problem, as well as justify the price and give it better value long term.

With regard to the distortion, I’d be more forgiving of the lens. If you need straight lines you probably want to correct any zoom lens in post, so there will always be some loss of resolution there. And if you’re not concerned with straight lines, this is probably acceptable performance. Also I have to wonder why the omission of inbuilt stabilization is an issue when the cameras you’d want to use this lens on have IBIS. Wrt vignetting I‘m not too fuzzed either though it could be better. But I would like better close-up performance. Still, if I would buy into the Z system, this lens would be on my list. With a Z6 I’d have a FF f/2.8 system weighing about 1.5 kg.

I have the z6 with the 24-70 f4. All i can say is that you can pretty much ignore every reviereview before firmware 3.0 (well, reviews with the 2.0 firmware are still kinda valid). It is really great and is much better in terms of ease of use, evf and ergonomics, (and colors to my eye, but that is subjective) than the Sony. Also feels more robust. But I only had the Sony for ca. 1h to try it out...and the Sony has still a better autofocus. By much? I don't know. The argument with 2 sd cards vs 1 xqd/cfexpress card is kinda pointless to my eye, these newer cards are much more reliable than the old sd cards. Sony has a better autofocus and much better lens selection, and maybe better battery life (but I think that the nikon has a very good battery life). Nikon has better ergonomics, evf, LCD, menus etc. And better out of the box jpeg colors to my eve. I'd just try them out, you cant go wrong with either one with the firmware improvements

Sharpness could be on par with 18-55 depending on your copy. Not as fast but extremely versatile. It would be my "Desert Island" lens.

FYI, I had it and it was not a good value at all. It was worst than 14-150 Olympus that t had and that lens is not sharp. Also the go lens was very happy.

Well, comparing the reviews of the f/4 and this f/2.8, it seems these lenses behave exactly the same in terms of sharpness....I'll pass this 2.8 though.

It's a ludicrous amount of money, the fact that Canon charges the same doesn't justify it any further. At this price there should be no short comings at all! The f4 version can be bought for half the price or less and loses just one stop, which can be made up with higher iso, which with these sensors is not an issue. It is simply too expensive.

Compared to what? These mirrorless standard zoom lenses outperform the previous DSLR lenses by a significant margin.

for Non-Pros using Z6 -- skip this $2000 lens ... & get the 24-70/4S (kit) + 50/1.8S .... both for 1200$ (600 each) Only, ... thus saving 800$ for a Tele/portrait prime (85/1.8) if needed, it is priced $799

Simply seems that Canon, Nikon and Sony couldn't realistically be expecting to sell large numbers of the 24-70 2.8. If you can afford one, you will keep for life. Opens the door wide open for the excellent alternatives from revitalised Sigma and Tamron.
