The XD Linear Motors and a new aperture drive unit contribute to quiet operation and independent control rings for focus, zoom and iris, with a click on/off switch for the aperture ring, make this lens ideal for movie shooting. Sonys Linear Response MF feature ensures responsive and repeatable direct manual focus control.

    • Insanely great lens!!!
Style: SEL70200GM
I have been looking for a long telephoto for months and tested virtually every other lens for Sony e-mount including the original version of this lens (not so good) with my A7R IVA. Every single one had an unacceptably high rate of out of focus and soft focus shots under many conditions. Up to this point I had resisted buying this lens because of the price. Finally after exhausting virtually all other cheaper possibilities I spent the money! I am happy to report it was the best money I have ever spent! This lens is beyond good it is insanely good and the best lens I have ever used in nearly every category. I went from an estimated 30% keeper rate with most other lenses to a 95% keeper rate with this lens! The auto focus accuracy, sharpness, and picture quality are off the charts and my customers have been astounded by the quality! I cannot say enough about this lens coupled with the A7R IVA. It is mind blowingly good both for portrait and sports coverage and produces spectacular results with the right body! I should mention it destroys the cheaper shorter range 70-180mm from a competing manufacturer. Also be careful listening to biased influencers that profit financially or from receiving early access to new products. They may claim "the video is not sponsored" but receiving early (often pre-production) access to hot new products can also benefit them in terms of video views. What do you think happens to the early access a manufacturer gives them if their last product review was negative? Bottom line is I do not write many glowing reviews but after spending a few weeks doing shoots with this lens I could not be happier! ... show more

    • A zoom lens that performs better than some primes
Style: SEL2470GM
While the size and cost of this lens can't be ignored, the quality and versatility also stand out. I normally post pictures, but there are already tons of sample pictures out there. Pros - The image quality is excellent and paired with the A7RIII, I was able to get some really great shots - The build quality seems very sturdy, and my copy of the lens seems to be very good (which may speak to quality control by Sony) - The zoom ring is quite firm, which keeps the lens from creeping. - Nice to have the zoom lock feature when you need it - Nice and sharp wide open, and throughout the zoom range (You can see a difference wide open at the end of the zoom range, but the photos are still very good) - After shooting a little with this lens, and taking about 100 pictures, very few of them had any chromatic aberration. In post, I only needed to correct for this in a few photos. Cons - The size and weight are quite significant, and pretty much take away any size advantage that the mirror-less A7RIII might have had over another DSLR - The focus is by wire, so you don't get the same smooth focus-ring feel. - While the A7RIII has IBIS, I would really like to see image stabilization here for the cost and size - Speaking of price... $$$ Conclusion If you are looking for a pro lens, and don't mind carrying it around, then this lens is great. Extremely sharp for a zoom and correcting any chromatic aberration, or lens distortion was easily handled in Lightroom. If you are looking to get a standard zoom for your Sony mirror-less, this is a great option. ... show more

Sony has really set a new precedent with their GM glass and this really showcases it. They've somehow figured out how to encapsulate all of the desirable optical qualities you'd get with a very good prime into a zoom. Previously, I wouldn't have even considered shooting a zoom for anything really important, but this lens changed all that. Even the bokeh is pleasant and very usable. It's great not having to lug 5 lenses around with me everywhere I go and risk getting dust on the sensor when I'm changing them. It's also refreshing having the freedom to focus solely on the photography side of things without having to worry about the equipment. I've heard people call this lens heavy, and it's no lie. It is is among the heavier ones I've used. You can feel the quality of its construction in it's sheer density and mass. With the grip, it's not badly balanced, but without it, I don't know how I would manage it. That's really the only caveat that comes with this lens that I've found so far - you've got to possess the strength to wield it. Autofocus is very fast on my A7rii, but insanely fast on the A7riii. the colors are very nice, a bit on the cool side, which I prefer, and contrast is excellent. It's also a very sharp lens, even at f/2.8. I also own the 28-105mm G now and I'd say this one is a bit better optically, at least to my taste. If being able to push the bokeh further and having that extra 1.2 stops of light matters to you, I'd go with this one. If having the extra range and a slightly lighter lens is a top priority, then opt for the 70-105. Or you can always buy both of them, because they're both amazing in their own ways. Lol ... show more

    • Every Day Lens

Review Image by Honest Reviewer Honest Reviewer
I do all kinds of photography and since I bought this lens over a year ago, it’s been my every day lens. The build quality is top notch. The autofocus is fast and accurate. The image quality is second to none with super sharp replication. The color contrast is what you would expect from a lens at this price range. The weight takes a little getting used to but it’s tolerable. As far as the value, it’s definitely worth the money. I have many lenses and I always find myself coming back to this one. I even have other GM IIs but they don’t have the reach that this one does. Sure this is not the lens for wide angle shots or other niche type shots but for an all around lens, I’m very satisfied. ... show more

That OSS is awesome... it practically makes a gimbal unnecessary. The bad thing is it cost a lot of money
