The Vario-Tessar T* FE 24-70mm F4 ZA OSS lens is impressive overall, and is built to the standards befitting the Zeiss name. However, to make it feel truly at home on Sony’s mirrorless cameras the inclusion of manual aperture and focus rings would have been the icing on the cake.

On the evidence of using it on the 42-million-pixel A7R II in our Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM review, I see no reason why it won’t meet the demands of even higher resolution sensors, and from that point of view, it may make a reasonable investment.
