- The first place is Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM II lens. It maintained their lead from the previous championship and achieved the third consecutive victory. There doesn’t seem to be any concern about supply shortages at this point, and we can expect to see a new record for consecutive wins. Three Sony Lenses are ranked at the top 10.
- The Second place goes to Nikon NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S Plena lens. Although it returned for the first time in two months after first appearing at number one in the first half of October, it has now entered the rankings in a position that threatens to take him to the top.
- The third place is Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports (E mount) , which was released on December 7th, making its debut in the top three.
- The 4th place is the Canon RF 24-105mm F2.8 L IS USM Z lens, which was released on December 8th and the 6th place Canon RF 200-800mm F6.3-9 IS USM lens is also a new face released on December 8th.
- Two Tamron lenses ranked in 8th and 9th place. Both have been pushed down in rank by Canon’s new models.
Sony not only has strong cameras at Yodobashi, but also strong in lenses. It’s no wonder that Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM II, which has won three consecutive awards, has become popular as it is an attractive lens that is smaller and lighter and has improved optical performance.
It’s amazing that Nikkor Z135mm f/1.8 S, which came in second place, has become so popular despite its focal length of 135mm, which is not very popular these days. This lens has excellent optical performance, but we also feel that the Plena branding worked well.
Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS got off to a good start, finishing in 3rd place, ahead of its rival Sony FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM II.
Canon RF 24-105mm F2.8 L IS USM Z is a large, heavy, and expensive lens, so we didn’t think there would be that many of them, but it is quite popular, coming top 4. There may have been quite a few people waiting for a lens with these specs.
