Bright, Versatile Standard Zoom. The Sony FE 28-70mm f/2 GM is Sony’s first constant f/2 zoom in the G Master series, making it an ideal choice for capturing a wide range of subjects with beautiful background blur from the widest to longest focal position. Its sharpness rivals that of a prime lens thanks to advanced techniques in manufacturing using larger elements. While this lens is still quite portable for its range and brightness, it is about 28% larger and 24% heavier than the Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II. It also has a “short-throw” zoom design so that it only extends 0.7" when moving from 28mm to 70mm. This is not an internally-zooming lens but the change is minimal enough to still work with gimbals and sliders.

Perfect for Photography and Videography. The smooth and quiet power zoom on this lens is perfect for filming events. Autofocus is even available while zooming and the aperture ring can be de-clicked for smooth, silent exposure or depth-of-field changes. Focus breathing is controlled for smooth, stable footage and metadata is maintained to allow for breathing compensation in post production. For photographers, this lens offers four extreme dynamic linear motors with the latest algorithm for reliable focus tracking for weddings, sports, and wildlife. The Sony FE 28-70mm f/2 GM can handle burst shooting up to 120 frames-per-second (fps) and video recording up to 240 fps.

Full-Frame E-Mount. As a part of the FE line of lenses, the Sony FE 28-70mm f/2 GM is designed for Sony full-frame cameras. It’s also fully compatible with APS-C sensor cameras, on which it’ll provide an effective focal length of approximately 42-105mm.

G-Master Series Quality. The GM series is Sony’s premium lens offering and produces the brand’s highest design standards. What sets GM apart from other Sony lens lines is an emphasis on resolving power so that these lenses are “future proof” and can be used on cameras with extremely high resolutions.

Try it with These E-Mount Cameras. The subject tracking and overall AF performance makes the Sony FE 28-70mm f/2 GM suitable for cameras with 120 fps shooting speeds while the updated optics can handle sensors of 40MP and higher. This lens pairs well with the Sony a9 III, the Sony a7R V, and the Sony a1. Its video specs also make it a good choice for the Sony a7S II and the Sony a1 II.
