Good sharp lens for architecture photography
I have been using this lens for a few months with my Sony A7III full frame camera and have been very pleased with the results. The lens provides excellent sharpness across the entire frame. Colour fringing is also minimal. I initially though of buying a cheaper 16mm third party lens but I appreciate the benefit I get from the Sony's zoom capabilities and wanted assured quality, not just a lower price. Attached are a few photos taken straight from camera with no editing.

Love Sony photographic gear.
Pretty good lens. Love the ultra wide focal length. Not the sharpest lens in my opinion.

Can't go wrong with a Zeiss lens
I bought this before my trip to Xinjiang, and I am glad that I did. I did not have a 72mm UV filter for protector, but I found a CPL and used it instead. I also brought along my Zeiss 4/24-70 and discovered that the Zeiss f/16-35 stayed on the camera for most of the trip. The weight is of most concern to me now as carrying camera, lenses and drone is taking a toll on my knees.

Great Travel Lens!
This is my go to lens for vacation. It captures the location so beautifully anytime of the day. A Solid build lens I’m positive will stand the test of time.

My favourite lens for travel
This is my favourite lens for travel and street photography. The f-stop at 4 is good for letting in decent light onto the sensor. And this is helpful for architecture, street, real-estate photography I do. Even for outdoor events, this wider focal length gives a whole new perspective. The bokeh is minimal to none, but picture quality is top notch and sharp from corner to corner. Much affordable compared to G-Master, and Zeiss coating on the lens controls the dispersion giving almost similar results to a 16-35 G master. The human eye in daylight works at a f/8 and I use that as a benchmark for every lens I use in daylight. The results at f6.3-f8 have always been the sharpest, and I just love this lens. I also like the fact this isn't having any buttons. just a zoom ring, and a focus ring. I would probably like an aperture ring that is clickable, in it's next iteration.

16-35 F4 - Awesome and light lens
I do primarily photo, and as I start to get into video, I am finding myself turning to this lens as my go to. I do landscape photography here and there, but where this lense has been great is to start recording myself. I am finding that the length, the size and how compact it is, has been a great go to lens for me.
