- The high-resolution and high-contrast photos of the lens convince professionals
- Its fast autofocus recommends it equally for photos and videos
At 1,699 euros, the new Sony lens is not entirely cheap. In terms of image quality, it almost competes with the top systems of the G-Master series and is pleasingly light and compact. The somewhat unusual focal length range proves to be extremely practical.
With the FE 2.8/24-70 mm GM II, Sony has succeeded in creating a top lens that already achieves almost its full performance at open aperture. At the shorter focal lengths, aperture 5.6 brings a plus at the edges, and at 70 mm, stopped down, the resolution in the centre of the image increases slightly...
- Very high resolution
- Hardly any aberrations
- Many adjustment elements
- Compact and weatherproof housing
- Without image stabiliser
- Very expensive
- The convincing overall package of size, low weight and high image quality is the FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM II's biggest plus point.
- The Sony lens also owes its lightness to the lack of an image stabiliser. It remains dependent on the sensor stabilisation of the Alpha cameras.
When a manufacturer decides to redesign an existing lens, this successor should offer noticeable advantages. Sony succeeds impressively with the FE 24 70mm F2.8 GM II. It delivers real top shots in both photos and videos.
