[QUOTE="Nero, post: 702313, member: 14723"] I've never trusted influencers, on YouTube or any other social media platform, especially when I found out how easy it is to artificially inflate your numbers. Plus, when you get past the hype and their "online personalities" and self-hype and the production value you see that most of them have average knowledge at best and are really just trying to be seen as a figurehead for the sake of fame and money. I'm sure there are some legitimately good ones out there, but they're a minority. As for the article, it doesn't really seem like a fair comparison. The new 24-70mm f2.8 S lens has the benefit of a whole new mount and to me that sort of puts it in its own class. However, it can also be seen as a good way of marketing mirrorless cameras and their lenses, and it shows people that, at the very least, they don't have to worry about image quality when it comes to switching over from the lenses that they've known and loved for years to these new ones (although they could just use the FTZ adapter.)
