Looks like this lens is doing the job for you! However, I think the photographer is the main element in this excellent series!

I saw you'r recent post and wan't sure you liked the lens, here I can see you are seeing the advantage of a zoom lens. You have some fine example here.👏

Thanks Jim, Oh I like the lens and there are advantages of a zoom, but I highly recommend a prime thou.

I have 17 primes lenses Jim, I'm not going to look them up, but I will list the ones I like the best.

#1 Sony FE 50mm f/1.8, 50mm lens is where you start once you have mastered this lens and I mean really master it you may move on, if you don't own a 50mm you don't own squat, this is where your photography skills start, This is the best all round lens you can buy and there cheap, it will shoot landscapes, portraits, close ups, Macro's, Street shooting, oh yes I also recommend using a manual focus one of these, it will teach you that much more. I own a Minolta MD 50mm 1.7 Manual focus, Minolta 50mm 2.0 manual focus, Sony 50mm 1.4 auto focus, Minolta 50mm 1.7 auto focus.

#2 Sony FE 85mm 1.8, Although I don't shoot it much, I love this lens.

#3 Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar 58mm f2 Lens M42 Red T, Freaking Awesome. Your skill level has got to be good.

#4 Fuji Fujinon 55mm 1.8, Bubble Bokeh

#5 Helios 58mm 44m-4 f2 , Cheap all-round fun like the Biotar very artistic lens.

#6 Minolta MC 58mm 1.4, a stunting smooth rendering classic lens, in a class all own it's own

I can go on and on.

First few shots, I did a lot of home work on this lens, looking at pictures samples and video's, it is one awesome all round lens, the only draw back I could find on my Sony a7rII was in real low light auto focus it had a hard time focusing and locking on.
I find my self manual focusing in low light close up work. Close up work @ 28mm is really close, like 7 Inches.

The focus motor is extremely quiet, Focus is Really fast, Sharp, Contrast and Colors are great.

Really enjoying this lens so far.

Thought you would like to see a few sample pictures.

Johnny, excellent set as allways. An aside, I own and use as a normal lens and allways get great results. My Canon 100-400 Vii is a tad sharper but it requires a large crop to see the difference.
