Earlier this year I bought a MKI Sony A7 to use with my vintage Minolta lenses.
I like it, It's probably my favourite way to shoot.
But sometimes, it would be nice to be able to go into full auto mode.
Despite owning the Sony, I have no Sony (or third party) lenses designed for it.
And I know next to nothing about what's considered good.
If it was going to be my main camera, I'd save up for something like the 24-70 GMII. But it's not. And it won't be as most of my kit is Canon.
Are there bargains to be had? It would be for holiday-type shooting so doesn't need to be super amazing IQ, but I also don't want to be disappointed.
So something like the kit lenses FE 28-70mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS or the FE 28-60mm f4-5.6 seems about the right zoom range, but they're cheap and cheap normally means not good.
Is there something excellent from the likes of Sigma or Tamron?
Any pointers?
Dos?
Don'ts?
Thanks in advance.
