The results are reliable. Really, no real complaints.

Having been shooting with this lens, I’ve become a fan. The optical quality is excellent, especially when you can make the most of a high-resolution camera like the Sony a7R IV.
[T]he first thing that comes to mind for a lens like this is portraiture. But that’s not what I was interested in using it for — I wanted to see how well it worked as a general-purpose travel lens.
It’s better than the average kit lens and is a great option to have as a take-anywhere, shoot-almost-anything lens.
The Viltrox AF 28mm f/4.5 Z is a fixed-aperture full-frame lens that is absolutely tiny. It’s an interesting option for street and travel photography.
In fact, it’s better than many larger cameras. With a few qualifications, the handling and performance is also excellent.
Ultimately, the true test of a lens, or any camera gear for that matter, is about the shots it helps you get. And that’s where this lens’s combination of very good optical performance and remarkably small size make for its strengths.
This is a very good lens — there’s no doubt about that. Optically I found it to be excellent.
[T]he Sigma stands very well on its own. The fact that it is so much less expensive than the Nikon is an added bonus and is a nice reminder that less expensive doesn’t necessarily mean compromising on image quality.
After shooting with the Lumix S 24-105mm f/4 for a while, I’m impressed. It’s an easy lens to shoot with — especially for contextual travel photography.
[I]’ve found the a7R IV to be a gem of a camera, and I’ve really enjoyed shooting with it.
[I]’ve found this lens to be great fun to shoot with. And I have no complaints performance-wise.
I like this lens a lot, and I’ve found myself leaving it on my Z8 often as an everyday-use lens.
The X-Pro2 isn’t for everybody, and there are photographers who will need or want features that the X-Pro2 lacks, but for those looking for a camera like this, it stands out.
This is a very impressive lens. Its ultra-wide perspective adds a lot of drama and packs a lot of scene into the frame, but it manages to do it without the distracting parts that you often get at such extreme focal lengths.
The updates from the a6300 are generally incremental, but they’re all squarely steps in the right direction. The image quality is very good (or even better than that, if you consider the price point).
The image quality is good without being remarkable in comparison with other market-leading cameras today.
[T]his is a very good lens overall.
A working photographer who shoots predominantly in controllable or good light [...] and wants the file quality of a 102 MP medium format sensor in something they’ll actually carry. For that photographer, the GFX100RF is genuinely special.
Factor in the price, and Sigma have created a very attractive lens here.
Nothing that would prevent me from using the maximum aperture in cases where I’d want to.
I already knew the GH-4 was an excellent choice for video capture. But in my humble opinion it’s also an excellent choice if you’re looking for a stills camera.
It seems to me that this is a Leica for those who already love Leicas. It doesn’t strike me as the type of camera that would convert new users to the brand.
It is another reliably good addition to Sony’s Alpha lineup.
