I have the "original" version of this lens I got back in early 2019 and it's my everyday lens - highly recommend it for this price.

3rd party marketplace, so when you place an order, it will be fulfilled by an authorized dealer.

I have this lens for my Sony a7III and it's great. For those unfamiliar with Greentoe just know that $649 is the price that you'll pay. They don't charge for tax or shipping. I buy most of my lenses through Greentoe.

$50 cheaper than the last quite popular deal for this lens. I was on the fence at 700, but 650 finally got me to go for it.

This is probably a gray market lens.
Says it's USA version. I've ordered from GreenToe before, shipping address was from Adorama. I'm pretty sure it's just a MAP pricing thing. Retailer is willing to sell for cheaper price, but due to MAP agreement cannot advertise is directly as such.

IMO yes - that said, when I bought mine I had an a6500. I knew that within the next two years I would want to upgrade to a full frame and ended up getting my a7III for $95 a few months later. I'm not saying to expect a PM (though you never know haha), but if there's any chance you'll upgrade to a full frame camera, you don't wan to have to re-buy the lens.

That said, a full frame lens on the APS-C sensor will have a crop factor making it more zoomy essentially - https://www.reddit.com/r/photogra...with_apsc/
