So I finally bit the bullet and got a Sony body but now Im stuck on the glass. My logic was to get one lens that stays on the camera forever since I hate swapping in the field. I read that the Sony 24-105mm f4 is basically the gold standard for travel but then I keep seeing everyone raving about the Tamron 28-75mm G2 for the f2.8 aperture.
Now Im just torn because I have a trip to Kyoto in three weeks and I dont want to swap lenses in the rain. Is that extra 4mm on the wide end worth giving up the low light for under 1100 bucks?
Honestly, go for the Sony FE 24-105mm F4 G OSS! That extra 4mm at the wide end is absolutely massive for tight Kyoto streets. Tbh, f4 is totally fine with modern Sony sensor tech, and the OSS is amazing for low-light stabilization! The Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 Di III VXD G2 is sharp, but 24mm to 105mm covers such a huge range for a one-lens setup. Youre gonna love it!
