A standard zoom lens, of a high standard
No lens is more important to a photographer's kit than the one that will be used in their day to day life. You never know what wonders you may encounter on your way to work, on a casual stroll, or travelling down a city street in a foreign country, so you need a kit that is always at the ready. The Sony FE 24-70mm f2.8 GM is more than up to any task, with a flexible feature set and stunning optical design resulting in timeless images, time after time.
With a constant f2.8 aperture, no area is too dark to shoot in with the 24-70mm. Allowing you to maintain a high-level of image sharpness at all times, this lens combats any camera shake by letting in plenty of light and therefore not requiring slow shutter speeds - you won't have much need for that heavy tripod that is a pain to carry! Pinpointing your subject matter and making it stand out with selective focus is also possible with the 24-70mm lens, meaning you can finally attain images that rival those beautiful family portraits that you have seen hanging on your friend's wall.
What's under the hood?
Throughout its handy standard zoom range this premium zoom lens provides excellent image clarity and sharpness, sure to satisfy beginners, enthusiasts and professionals. The lens construction responsible for this stunning performance contains the following advanced lens elements - one XA, two aspherical, one ED and one Super ED. These special elements have all been included for overall image quality and to reduce distortions and aberrations. Sony's spectacular Nano AR coating has been employed to specific elements to help combat flare and ghosting. This new Sony FE 24-70mm f2.8 GM lens is a high quality, versatile performer, matching the flagship Sony E- mount bodies it is compatible with, perfectly.
