    I’ve researched that sony 20-70 f/4 lens, but I understand its slower aperture limits low-light and casual astrophotography. So, I shortlisted the Sony 24-50mm f/2.8 for its low-light and G Master quality. However, it’s not wide enough (20mm), and I don’t want to buy a separate wide-angle prime 16mm or 20mm just for astro. This leads me to the Tamron 20-40mm f/2.8 as a cheaper, better low-light option. My shortlisting are based solely on online reviews since I haven’t handled any of these lenses. I need one versatile, wide-angle zoom lens for low-light street , landscape, casual astrophotography, and to upgrade from my kit lens. Can you help me decide?
