These 3 new compact G lenses from Sony are small and light weight lenses that I will be using on the Sony A7C camera body. We have:

G 24mm f2.8

G 40mm f2.5

G 50mm f2.5

Watch my real world review video below to see how these 3 lenses perform out in the field with 100% crop, unedited photo examples at a portrait photoshoot. I share video autofocus tests of each lens and compare these 3 compact lenses to other lenses in a similar price and size range. I compare the G 24mm f2.8 to the Tamron 18mm f2.8, 24mm f2.8 & 35mm f2.8 compact lenses the Samyang 18mm f2.8. I also compare the G 40mm f2.8 to the Fujifilm 23mm 1.4 and for the G 50mm f2.5 the closest lens I have tried in the past is the Zeiss 55mm f1.8.
