A: If you remember the Azanuma zooms of the 70's, this is way betterbut so was everything else& just rent it first if you are not sure so that you don't end up complaining and explaining that you purchased it and then got charged a restocking fee when you returned it in some insipid equipment review.

If we exclude that they are different lenses - prime against zoom, smaller and lighter against bigger and heavier, tripod collar against none and so on.

A: Yes; in some focus modes, the lens can be auto-focused, followed by a a manual-focus override by rotating the lens focus ring.

Q: 8. I am looking for the nodal points of 4-5 focal lengths covered by this zoom lens before I buy it. Can B&H or Sony help me?

A: I'm sorry but that info would be determined by using the lens on a rail, we do have a 30 day return policy.

Q: 9. Is the new g master lens focus by wire ?

A: While yes, it is focus by wire, and while yes, I hate focus by wire, I recently picked up the 24-70/2.8 GM. That lens is also focus by wire, but unlike all it's little brothers and sisters, this one is not accelerated. If you spin the ring to a specific point on the lens, it will focus the same distance every time. I think Sony realized that they had made a huge mistake with all the preceding lenses (especially since they were marketing these cameras to the video community as well; the video community is heavily manual focus), and adjusted some parameters to do away with the whole acceleration thing because NO ONE LIKES IT. I'm so happy that this was addressed with the GM series. It had me super worried about my purchase until I held it in my hands.

Q: 10. What is it made of

A: The optics are glass and the lens is metal.
