> will there be any great deals on lenses ? Absolutely! I have been tracking the price history on these for months and the optics deals are usually amazing! Here is a methodical breakdown of what I am watching for the Big Deal Days based on technical performance. The Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II is the technical gold standard right now.
- Pros: Incredible autofocus tracking with four XD linear motors and it is the lightest in its class.
- Cons: Even with a Prime discount, it remains a massive investment for most hobbyists. The Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art for Sony E is a fantastic alternative that I love.
- Pros: Exceptional build quality and image sharpness that rivals the Sony for way less money.
- Cons: It is quite a bit heavier, which might be a dealbreaker if you are hiking or traveling. The Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III VXD G2 is my favorite sleeper pick.
- Pros: Super compact and has great close-focusing abilities for detail shots.
- Cons: You lose that extra width at the 24mm end which really matters for architecture or tight spaces. I am really hoping the Sigma hits a new all-time low this year because the value is just unbeatable!
