  • Our take on the Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 GM FE Lens

    The Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM is a constant-aperture standard zoom for full-frame E-mount cameras, part of Sony's G Master line. It covers wide to short telephoto with a fast f/2.8 aperture throughout, built with one XA element, two aspherical elements, one ED and one Super ED element plus Nano AR coating to control sharpness and flare. A Direct Drive SSM motor, focus hold button, internal focus, zoom lock and dust and moisture resistance make it a working lens for events, portraits and reportage. It is the original G Master standard zoom; the later GM II is smaller and lighter, so this version appeals to buyers who want the same optical class in a heavier, older design.

    Questions and answers

    Is this lens worth it over the newer 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II?
    The GM II is smaller, lighter and faster to focus. This original version still delivers G Master sharpness and the same f/2.8 range, so it suits buyers who prioritize optics over the lighter body.
    Does it work on APS-C Sony cameras?
    Yes, it mounts on E-mount APS-C bodies, where it behaves like a 36–105mm equivalent. It is designed and corrected for full-frame sensors.
    Does the lens have image stabilization?
    No. Stabilization comes from the camera body on Sony's IBIS-equipped models.
    Is it weather sealed?
    Sony rates it dust and moisture resistant, with sealing around the mount and barrel. It is not waterproof.
    What is in the box?
    The lens, front and rear caps, a lens hood and a soft carrying pouch.
    Can I use filters with it?
    Yes, it takes 82mm screw-in filters, a common size for Sony's f/2.8 zooms.
    Where is the Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 GM FE Lens cheapest?
    At Red Finch Rental, for $360.00, as of our latest check.
