Highlights
Quality
I consider it to be a great lens, with incredible image quality.
Increased image quality is a bonus since the 16-35 already had good image quality.
Photo quality overall is improved over version 1 and you will see the improvement in the corners and overall sharpness.
The image quality even wide open is so good!

If you are on a budget and don’t care about the size stick with the gm1 it’s cheaper and to me provides the same great quality videos.
Competitiveness
The aperture ring is great if you are used to the other sony lenses with it.

If you do vlogs outside for longer than 10 minutes then maybe could be worth it since it’s lighter but not reallly
