@fredmiranda@ , do you want to make this the official images thread?

Here is my "just got it, ran out the door and shot any children or things that were out there" post.

#3 is a crop from #2!

I really prefer shooting with this lens, while using a meike mk-x1em half grip. really balances way better this way!

I’m not sure there will be a lot of testing myself. Fred really did a great job on his review of it. Sure I’ll do BB but just looking at these images is great for me to see.

Here’s the problem for the dealers . Sony, canon, Nikon can actually punish dealers releasing early. Why some won’t do it. Don’t view this as good , bad or indifferent. It’s a business and it’s money. Sure nice to get it early no question but we don’t want dealers getting in trouble either

I definitely understand that and do not have an issue with it but I guess some dealers don't care lol

For me just 2 more photoshoots with the rented Sigma is what it means I guess

Ordered mine on 28-Feb which was the first day I believe if my memory is correct but not until later in the day so I hope the gets me in the first batch. Waiting patiently (what choice to I have). Just checked. Still on back order.
At least I only live one shipping day away. Maybe by next Tuesday if I am lucky.

If I have a chance, I'm curious to compare the 135 GM's rendering to the Zeiss 135/2 APO (ZE,ZF) side-by-side under same lighting.

Just gonna test for decentering and is it as sharp as it should be. Just want to get a decent copy.
Need to be ready for grand kids in 10-15 years from no - should be competent with this lens and the Sony A7RX by then

I didn't think I wanted this, but I'm kinda digging the sharpness curve for portraits over the Sigma I had...and the ergonomics and weight advantages.

Order from Amazon just landed...shipping was absurdly quick.

Pumped to take it on vacation next week along with my 24 GM and 50 1.4.

How are people getting these shipped from Amazon?

It's listed as a pre-order.
