Old photos from another thread already. But I thought that we should have a thread in the sample image archives sub-forum for the kit lens. {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {} {}
Just got the A7 last week, I only have the 28-70 at the moment and honestly it's not bad at all! {} Sunrise Over The Windmills by Nicolas_Goulet, on Flickr
Quirck I think your photos are good but it's your ability, I don't see scenes that put the lens on strain.

Gorgeous shots, Brian! And so much for the kit lens being inadequate. Did you get to drive all the way down Highway 1?
I keep having to remind myself that this is "just" a kit lens. Keeps impressing me. {} DSC00747-Edit by Mr Lurch, on Flickr {} DSC00774 by Mr Lurch, on Flickr
My wife used this lens more on our recent trip to Colorado. {} Silverton, Colorado. CO_108 by Jenny Hou, on Flickr {} Red Mountain Pass. CO_120 by Jenny Hou, on Flickr {} Red Mountain Pass. CO_126 by Jenny Hou, on Flickr {} Silver Lake. CO_069 by Jenny Hou, on Flickr
It's good. True. Until you start comparing it to other lenses you have. The FE 16-35 is better at all apertures from 28 to 35. Think I am gonna sell it and get a 55 1.8 instead. Nice photos by the way.
Only got this lens recently as my only native AF lens after switching from a Nex-6 with a 18-105G combo to an A7 but I don't see myself keeping the 28-70... {} Limassol Marina by Nick Corrado, on Flickr
I think I agree with @NickCyprus... it's "OK" and you can produce good results, but there are certainly better (albeit, more expensive) options. Then again, I only paid $190 for it... View attachment 70739
