Sony SEL2470GM2 FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM II Full-Frame Constant-Aperture G-Master Standard Zoom Lens The Sony FE 24-70 mm f/2.8 GM is an updated ‘holy trinity’ standard zoom lens, packing evolved optics and AF performance into a convenient, compact, lightweight zoom design that offers maximum mobility for stills and movies. It is an ideal match for high-performance compact α system bodies, and will cover a wide range of shooting situations. Features Excellent contrast at high spatial frequencies means superb resolution even at f/2.8. Two high-precision XA (extreme aspherical) elements, two ED (extra-low dispersion) glass elements, two Super ED glass elements and a floating focus mechanism control chromatic aberration, astigmatism, distortion and coma at all zoom and aperture settings. Nano ARCoating II subdues flare and ghosting for outstanding clarity. Compact, Lightweight and Versatile The smallest and lightest f/2.8 24-70 mm zoom in its class, this lens offers unprecedented flexibility and freedom. It weighs just 695 grams, 191 grams less than the previous model. Its length has been reduced by 16 mm. Overall volume has been reduced by approximately 18%. Impressive portability and mobility make it a good choice for professional or enthusiast still or movie use in a wide range of situations. Stunning G Master Bokeh Exquisite f/2.8 bokeh extends throughout the zoom range thanks to advanced optical design and a new 11-blade aperture unit. Bokeh is enhanced by precise control of spherical aberration during design and for each lens during manufacture. Two XA elements with 0.01-micron precision suppress onion ring bokeh. The minimum focusing distance is 0.21 meters at 24 mm and 0.30 meters at 70 mm, with max. magnification of 0.32x. Fast, Precise AF and Excellent Response Four of Sony's original XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors, a floating focus mechanism and advanced lens control achieve high AF precision and approximately 2x better tracking performance while zooming than the previous model.
