- Is the Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM worth it over the f/4 version?
- Yes if you shoot in low light or want shallow depth of field. The f/2.8 version is bigger and heavier but gives a full stop more light and softer backgrounds.
- Does it work on APS-C Sony bodies?
- Yes, it mounts on E-mount APS-C cameras and behaves like a 36-105mm lens. The trade-off is size and weight on a small body.
- Does it have image stabilization?
- No. It relies on the camera's in-body stabilization, so pair it with a stabilized body for handheld work.
- How close can it focus?
- Minimum focus distance is about 14.9 inches, with maximum magnification around 0.24x. That is fine for portraits but not true macro.
- Is the autofocus quiet enough for video?
- Yes. The Direct Drive SSM motor is quiet and smooth, though the lens shows some focus breathing when racking focus.
- What is in the box?
- The lens, front and rear caps, a lens hood and a soft case. A tripod collar is not included.
