Sony FE 28-70mm f/2 GM Lens (Sony E-Mount)

A bright, versatile F2 standard zoom

The first G MasterTM standard zoom with a constant F2 aperture is ideal for portraits and a wide range of other subjects. Sharpness and contrast rival prime lens quality, while F2 brightness, unrivaled AF, a versatile zoom range, and a compact, lightweight design offer extraordinary creative scope for stills and movies.  

Sharpness that maximizes body potential

Advanced design and optical simulation result in zoom quality that rivals prime lenses. Large elements including three XA (extreme aspherical) elements manufactured using original techniques ensure high corner-to-corner resolution at F2 throughout the zoom range. Floating focus allows close focus down to 0.38 m/1.25 ft throughout the zoom range.

F2 G Master design for extraordinary depth

An F2 max. aperture and G Master optics deliver exquisite, soft bokeh for deep, dimensional images. Spherical aberration is carefully controlled for ideal resolution/bokeh balance, and a new 11-blade circular aperture unit helps to deliver gorgeous ball bokeh. Onion-ring bokeh and color bleeding are effectively suppressed for refined image quality.

Constant F2 in a compact, lightweight lens

This versatile standard zoom lens delivers image quality that rivals prime lenses plus amazing AF. Innovative optics and XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors make all of this fit in a constant F2 zoom that is only 92.9 x 139.8 mm (3-3/4 x 5-5/8) and weighs just 918 g (32.4 oz). Stress-free shooting with all the advantages of zoom and no compromise on image quality.

Precise, reliable, responsive AF tracking

Four XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors and the latest algorithm precisely control the large F2 focus group. Reliable focus tracking and instant response are essential at weddings or sports events where every frame counts. This lens is fully compatible with the 120 fps burst capability of the α9 III, and tracking continues even while zooming.

Refined, expressive movie production

Focus breathing is subdued for refined movie imagery. Rack focus and zoom effects can be used with F2 depth of field to create smooth, natural transitions. Critical focus for high frame rate 4K 120p/FHD 240p recording is easy. The XD linear motors and a new aperture unit operate quietly, and α body breathing compensation is supported.

Chromatic aberration controlled

Sony’s original Nano AR Coating II minimizes flare/ghosting, making it possible to shoot clear images even in strong backlighting. Optics designed to suppress internal reflections provide further flare resistance, ensuring high clarity whenever a strong light source appears in the frame. Perfect for portraits, sports, movies, live events, and more.y.
