KenRockwell.com : The Sony 24-240mm is sharp, autofocuses over the entire frame, focuses silently and essentially instantly on my Sony A7 IV, focuses super-close, operates its diaphragm silently and covers every focal length I need. While I can spend more on the heavier and much more expensive 24-70/2.8 GM and 70-200/2.8 GM, the pictures are the same 95% of the time and this 24-240mm is much easier and much more fun to carry all day - and this 24~240mm has 20% more telephoto range than those two lenses combined! If it's less effort to carry, I'm more relaxed and make better pictures. • Full-frame format for Sony E Mount cameras. • Essentially instantaneous autofocus. • Autofocuses over the entre frame. • Silent autofocus. • Silent diaphragm. • Plenty sharp for real pictures. • Covers every focal length. • Focuses super-close, probably close enough to replace your macro lens. • Smaller than either the 24-70/2.8 GM or 70-200/2.8 GM lenses it can replace for real-world shooting. I paid $1,456.69 at London Drugs for this lens. Today, I am offering it to you, in excellent condition, for only $800.
