Features 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II lens

The FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II from SONY takes the classic fast zoom and elevates performance to a whole new level. This lens builds on the best parts of the original and enhances them even further, while also reducing weight by 29%, making this lens the lightest in its class. SONY has also given this lens a new AF system that promises up to four times the speed and has made many optical optimizations that will appeal to video recorders, including improvements to focus breathing and focus shifting. Whether you're shooting portraits, sports, landscapes, or video, the 70-200mm f/2.8 will get the job done.

Improved optical performance

A hallmark of the G Master line is its excellent optical performance with high sharpness and smooth bokeh effect. Using a new design, the FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II promises corner-to-corner sharpness throughout the zoom range, even when shooting wide open at f/2.8. Along with that, a newly designed 11-blade aperture helps create a nice smooth bokeh.

The constant fast f/2.8 aperture allows users to capture images in low-light conditions and with shallow depth of field.

Two ED (Ultra-Low Dispersion) elements and two Super ED elements, including an aspherical ED element, effectively suppress chromatic and spherical aberrations.

Two aspherical lenses, including an extreme aspherical (XA) lens, minimize distance-related aberrations and also reduce "onion ring" bokeh.

Nano AR Coating II controls flare and ghosting with the support of a new optical design that reduces internal reflections.

An 11-blade aperture diaphragm helps create a smooth, circular bokeh effect at all aperture settings.

Optimized for video

Taking a cue from its cinema division, SONY has optimized the 70-200mm II for video. Changes include a drastic reduction in focus breathing and focus shifting, improved autofocus performance, and a linear response MF system to ensure smooth, natural operation. Permanent Direct Manual Focus (DMF) also makes it easy to make quick adjustments with the focus ring in AF modes.

The exterior design of the lens also undergoes major changes. A clear example is the incorporation of a physical opening ring that was not present in its predecessor. Users will be able to remove the click from this ring with the flick of a switch for smooth iris control during shooting. This provides shooters with independent controls for focus, zoom, and iris.

Fast autofocus and reliable image stabilization

Among the biggest improvements to the 70-200mm II is a very superior autofocus system. Now comprised of 4 XD linear motors, the lens now runs up to four times faster. Focus tracking while zooming sees its own specific improvement of around 30% compared to the previous model. Users will also enjoy high-speed continuous shooting at up to 30fps with AF and video will benefit from near-silent operation.

An advanced optical SteadyShot image stabilization system will ensure sharp images while shooting handheld, even at the longest focal lengths. A number of modes are available, including standard, panorama, and a new Mode 3 for moving subjects.

Professional design and durability.

Designed for professional use, the 70-200mm II has been reinforced with an advanced waterproof seal. Weight has also been reduced by approximately 29% to just under 2.3 lbs., making this model one of the lightest in its class. The optics have also been designed for balance with an internal zoom mechanism, minimising frontal heaviness to provide a more ergonomic centre of gravity.

Other physical design features include three programmable focus hold buttons, all located in 90-degree increments, for greater tactile control over select settings in both landscape and portrait orientations. Users also have a removable tripod stand for added stability in support systems.

The focus range limiter switch will optimize performance and improve AF speed and responsiveness in certain shooting scenarios.

The zoom ring torque has been optimized.

The iris lock switch prevents users from accidentally moving the opening ring to or from the auto-open position.

The front element of the lens has a fluorine coating that repels water, oil, and other contaminants and makes it easy to clean the lens.

The included lens hood features a lock button and filter window for easy adjustment of variable filters (e.g., polarizers, ND).
