This Sony FE 12-24mm f2.8 lens is a perfect addition to the Sony lens lineup, providing a premium wide-angle zoom option for landscapes and similar purposes. A member of Sony's prestigious G Master range, this lens means you can now use a GM lens with bright f2.8 aperture from a wide 12mm to a long 200mm, which is all you could ever really need for consistently brilliant images. This lens is in fact the widest lens with an f2.8 aperture at its time of release, so if you want to shoot in low-light conditions with your Sony Full-Frame Mirrorless camera, this is certainly one worth adding to your camera bag.
The Sony FE 12-24mm f2.8 GM lens is a fast wide-angle zoom lens, compatible with Sony's Full-Frame Mirrorless cameras. It is the widest lens yet to be released with an f2.8 maximum aperture, which makes it ideal for available-light shooting. Landscapes can be shot at any time of the day with this Sony G Master lens. Taking into account other G Master lens releases, the range now covers an impressive 12-200mm with a fast f2.8 maximum aperture, leading to versatile shooting of any subject imaginable.
Assuring sharp and detailed photographs can be captured at all points within the zoom range, the Sony FE 12-24mm lens features a number of high-end optical elements, including XA, ED and Super ED. Nano AR Coating II has been used to reduce reflections, such as ghosting and flare, while Fluorine Coating has been applied to the front element of this Sony lens, which protects it from damage. This coating goes well with the rugged construction of this lens, and it is also sealed at various points throughout construction, which results in its dust and moisture-resistant qualities.
In order to make the most of the high-performance mirrorless cameras that Sony produce, the Sony FE 12-24mm GM lens features innovative XD linear AF motors. This AF system focuses quickly and precisely, able to keep up with fast-paced moving subjects, for premium burst shooting results, as well as smooth and classy looking videos. Increasing its usability, this wide-angle zoom lens features a smooth and responsive focus ring, as well as a focus hold button which can be pressed to preserve a focal point and customised to perform a different task, using the menu of a compatible Sony camera.
