Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II Lens

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Evolved G Master F2.8 telephoto zoom

The full force of Sony’s latest lens technology brings stunning resolution and exquisite bokeh together in the world’s lightest2 large-aperture G Master telephoto zoom lens. With significantly evolved AF performance, the FE 70–200 mm F2.8 GM OSS II can deliver the full potential of today’s advanced still and movie camera bodies.

Unprecedented image quality

Image quality is superb throughout the zoom range at all focusing distances. Two aspherical elements, one an XA (extreme aspherical) type, ensure high resolution throughout the image area. Two ED (extra-low dispersion) glass elements, two Super ED glass elements and one ED aspherical element minimize chromatic aberration, while Sony’s Nano AR Coating II subdues flare and ghosting. High-performance 1.4x and 2x teleconverters3 are available.

Beautiful G Master bokeh is achieved through advanced optical design, an F2.8 aperture and a new 11-blade aperture unit. An XA element manufactured to 0.01-micron surface precision suppresses onion ring bokeh and the new aperture unit helps to deliver natural circular bokeh. Close-up bokeh is superb too, with a minimum focusing distance of just 1.32 ft (0.4 m) at 70 mm and 2.69 ft (0.82 m) at 200 mm.

Fast, precise AF supports creative shooting

Four of Sony’s original XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors deliver high thrust efficiency that boosts AF speed by up to 4x4 compared to the previous model5. When tracking an approaching short-distance runner, for example, tracking while zooming is improved by approx. 30%6 compared to the previous model5, greatly increasing chances of getting the shot. 

Professional movie capability

The latest lens technology reduces focus breathing, focus shift when zooming and axis shift when zooming. XD Linear Motors and a new aperture drive unit contribute to quiet operation. This lens even has independent control rings for focus, zoom and iris, with a click on/off switch for the aperture ring. Sony’s Linear Response MF feature ensures responsive, direct manual focus control.

This lens offers outstanding optical quality and AF in the world’s lightest2 F2.8 70–200 mm zoom. XD Linear Motors and magnesium alloy barrel components result in an overall weight of just 36.9 oz (1,045 g); approx. 29% lighter than the previous model. Advanced design improves balance, while a constant barrel length further contributes to easy, agile handling.

Flexible focus control is provided by features such as Full-time DMF, Linear Response MF and a focus-range limiter. An aperture ring with switchable clicks and an iris lock provides extra exposure control. MODE 1, MODE 2 and MODE 37 optical image stabilization ensure sharp images and a dust and moisture resistant design8 plus fluorine-coated front element maximize reliability in tough environments.
