Hire Sony FE 12-24mm F4 G lens

The FE 12-24mm F4 G plays second fiddle to the FE 12-24mm F2.8 GM. Not only is it more compact than its senior relative, it’s 280g lighter. It features a bulbous front element and fixed hood to protect it. The only issue with this is that it can’t accept screw-in filters so an adapter ring and slot-in filter system are required if the use of filters is a priority. As well as feeling great in the hand, it produces tack sharp results from edge to edge at f/8. That being said you do need to make a few compromises for its extremely wide field of view. In-camera lens compensation must be turned on to correct distortion and it vignettes quite heavily wide open at 12mm.
