G Master series
Sony is launching its first pro full-frame E-mount lenses, dubbed G Master, with two lenses coming in March: the FE 24-70mm f2.8 GM ($2,200) and the 85mm f1.4 GM ($1,800). They'll be followed in May by the long-awaited FE 70-200mm f2.8 GM OSS (price TBD).
At a Sony press event in NYC, we got to shoot with the first two lenses on the A7R II.
24-70mm lens at 70mm, f8
ISO 200, 1/30 sec. Raw exposure adjusted because I didn't realize the camera was set to -1 EV.

(1/80 sec, f2.8, ISO 1000)
24-70mm lens at f4.5
1/125 sec, f4.5, ISO 400, EV -1
85mm lens at f5
Details in the JPEGs looked really jaggy and smeary at ISO 1600, while the raw versions looked far more naturally sharp.

(1/250 sec, f2, ISO 640)
85mm lens at f2.2
(1/200 sec, ISO 800)
85mm lens at f8
