The world's lightest, large-aperture F2.8 telephoto zoom G Master that fully brings out the performance of the evolving body・Mount: E-mount lens (compatible with full-frame mirrorless)・Focal length: 70-200mm・Maximum aperture: F2.8・Filter diameter: 77mm/[SEL70200GM2] [report] SEL70200GM2 Released in November 2021
The latest optical design achieves high resolution performance from the maximum aperture of F2.8 to the periphery of the screen across the entire zoom range.The latest optical design uses ultra-high-precision aspherical XA (extreme aspherical) lenses, whose surfaces are manufactured and controlled to a precision of 0.01 microns, and ED (extra-low dispersion) aspherical lenses, to achieve high resolution performance with precise depictions from the maximum aperture of F2.8 to the periphery of the screen across the entire zoom range, from focal lengths of 70mm to 200mm. Approximately 29% lighter than previous models. By incorporating the same technologies used in the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS and FE 600mm F4 GM OSS, this lens delivers superior optical and AF performance in the world's lightest 70-200mm F2.8 zoom.* This lens offers even greater freedom of movement. To achieve both lightweight and superior imaging performance, the lens employs a new optical design that effectively positions elements, including an extreme aspherical XA (extreme aspherical) lens element and Super ED glass, minimizing the weight-intensive lens arrangement at the front of the lens barrel. Furthermore, the lens employs a high-thrust XD linear motor, significantly lighter than the previous actuator, and lightweight, durable magnesium alloy components inside the lens barrel, resulting in a weight of 1,045g, approximately 435g lighter than the previous model. This represents a weight reduction of approximately 29%. *For full-frame 70-200mm F2.8 telephoto zooms with autofocus. As of October 2021. According to Sony research, the latest optical design technology minimizes chromatic aberration, resulting in beautiful, natural images. Two ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) glass elements and two Super ED glass elements minimize chromatic aberration, resulting in beautiful, natural images. Furthermore, the ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) aspherical lens effectively corrects both chromatic and spherical aberrations, both of which tend to occur with telephoto lenses. This enables a high-quality post-shooting workflow. Nano AR Coating II provides excellent resistance to backlight and crystal-clear image quality. Nano AR Coating II significantly reduces flare and ghosting caused by internal reflections, even in scenes with strong light such as sunlight, delivering crystal-clear image quality. Breathtakingly beautiful bokeh, unique to G Master. The large bokeh at an aperture of f/2.8 and the soft, beautiful bokeh unique to G Master, achieved through the latest optical design and aperture unit, add a three-dimensional effect to your subjects. In addition, with a focus on the quality of bokeh, optimal spherical aberration adjustments are made to each lens element at every stage of the design and production process, and a newly developed 11-blade circular aperture unit maintains a high circularity ratio even when stopped down two stops from maximum aperture. Furthermore, each ultra-high aspherical XA (extreme aspherical) lens element is precisely controlled to within 0.01 microns, further reducing ring-shaped bokeh. ED (extra-low dispersion) glass, Super ED glass, and ED (extra-low dispersion) aspherical lenses also minimize color fringing, resulting in clear, color-free circular bokeh. High Close-Up Capability with a maximum magnification of 0.3x. This lens offers excellent close-up capabilities, taking advantage of the bokeh effect achieved with an aperture of f/2.8. The floating focus mechanism also ensures high resolution even at the minimum focusing distance. Meanwhile, innovative optical design minimizes the overall lens length, and the use of an inner zoom system prevents the lens from extending, further enhancing ease of use. Compatible with 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverters (sold separately). High-quality imaging and fast, precise AF performance are achieved even when attached. Compatible with high-performance teleconverters (sold separately, 1.4x/2.0x), it enables shooting at a maximum aperture of f/5.6 at a maximum telephoto range of up to 400mm (equivalent to a maximum of 600mm on an APS-C camera). Even when a teleconverter is attached, it maximizes the camera's performance while still delivering the high imaging performance you expect from G Master cameras. AF performance maximizes the camera's speed and performance for both stills and video. In addition to the floating focus mechanism and advanced lens control, the camera is equipped with four high-thrust XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors, unique to Sony. Dramatically improved thrust efficiency compared to previous models enables AF speeds up to approximately four times faster. AF precision and tracking of moving subjects have also been improved. For example, when continuously capturing fast-approaching subjects during sprints, focus tracking performance while zooming is significantly improved by approximately 30% compared to previous models, ensuring you won't miss a single moment. When paired with the latest flagship camera, the α1, it enables high-speed continuous shooting at up to 30 frames per second. Video performance that meets the demands of video creators: The latest lens design technology significantly reduces focusing breathing, focus shift, and axis misalignment caused by zooming. This minimizes fluctuations in the angle of view and shaking in the video, enabling the smooth expression required for video. We also paid careful attention to quietness during video recording, using an XD linear motor and a newly developed aperture unit to reduce operation noise and vibration during video recording. The lens hood features a filter operation window that allows operation of a circular polarizing filter or variable ND filter. The inner zoom system maintains the length of the lens barrel while zooming. This maintains the distance between the tip of the lens and the subject, minimizing any shifts in the camera's center of gravity, ensuring stable framing and comfortable shooting.
