The photographic 'holy-trinity' is an oft-described concept for the professional wedding, event and sports photographer. You have three cameras dangling from three straps around your body (and hopefully a chiropractor to help you with the aftereffects).
These include cameras strapped to a 16-35mm (ish) F2. 8 lens, a 24-70mm F2. 8 and a 70-200mm F2. 8 to make sure you don't miss a thing.
With the new a9, Sony is aiming at the high-end sports photographer market, so their new FE 16-35mm F2. 8 GM is a natural next step to appeal to the wide-angle enthusiasts within that crowd. See how it stacks up in our preliminary samples gallery.

All images are processed through Adobe Camera Raw using a near-final build of that software where applicable for the new Sony a9 camera. Sharpness and noise reduction settings are left to default, the Adobe Standard color profile was used, and minor adjustments were made to white balance, highlights, shadows, whites and blacks. Due to bandwidth constraints, only JPEG images processed using the above settings are available at this time. Raw images will be coming shortly.
