I haven't given up on the 24-50 puppy at f8 for $200 - need to see some reviews

We can hope dpreview had a bad copy. If so I can always add one anyway. R5 + 24-50mm allows for the Sigma 85mm DN or 50mm GM on the A7IV. I can't use the 85mm DN when the A7VI is occupied by the 28-60mm. So I hope I'm wrong about the IQ of the 24-50mm, but I'm afraid it's not great.

The samples from 24-50 actually look quite decent, especially the portraits.

All I can say is these portraits don't satisfy me. I have more confidence in that FE 28-60mm.

eyelashes at slow ss 1/80 of image 23 look pretty sharp
