Alin Popescu published his first Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM and FE 12-24mm f/4 G lens review and many sample images and comparisons on his website:

Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM Lens Review:

The lens is straightforward to use, with excellent handling and smooth zoom and focus ring movement. They’ve said the drive by wire was improved and I must agree.

The lens is an amazing performer starting wide open. And very resistant to flare and resolves all scenes with minimum Chromatic Aberration.

Sony FE 12-24mm f/4 G Lens Review:

Serious resistance to flare and minimum aberrations with superb contrast. I have found it even better compared to the G Master when it come to Chromatic Aberration handling.

Sharpness wise, this lens is a performer. It’s very sharp corner to corner, ignoring the normal distortions for a 12mm.
