Sony FE 28-70mm F2 GM

Overview

A high-performance all-arounder, the Sony FE 28-70mm f/2 GM is a faster standard zoom compared to conventional f/2.8 options. This lens is Sony's first GM zoom with a constant f/2 maximum aperture and spans a useful wide-angle to portrait-length range—it is a lens for photographers looking to replace a set of primes with a single zoom without sacrificing on speed. It covers some of the most frequently used focal lengths, offers impressively fast AF, and is a single, well-balanced option for photography and filmmaking needs.

Sony's G Master designation is reserved for its highest performing optics, those that offer the greatest sharpness, smoothest bokeh, utmost speed, and best overall performance. This 28-70mm f/2 checks all of these boxes as it sets out to be a single lens replacement for several primes.

Four XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors generate fast and responsive AF performance that's equally quiet and smooth. The focusing system is compatible with continuous shooting speeds up to 120 fps or high-speed video recording at up to 240 fps.
Internal focusing design promotes quicker focusing speeds and maintains the lens length during use.
Short-throw zoom design means the lens only extends 0.7" when changing from 28mm to 70mm positions, meaning, despite the lens not being a true internal zoom, you still do not need to adjust gimbal settings when changing the zoom position.
