Sony FE 16-35 mm f/2,8 GM II (E-Mount)

The G-Master FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II wide-angle zoom lens for FF E-mount cameras covers focal lengths from 16mm to 35mm with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 throughout the zoom range, and offers an upgraded optical design compared to the previous version, incl. XA (extreme aspherical) element for superior optical resolution and high luminosity. It also offers excellent close-up performance throughout the zoom range, a minimum focusing distance of 0.22m and a maximum magnification of 0.32x. The Nano AR Coating II surface treatment effectively suppresses flare and enables clear images to be captured even in strong backlight. It also boasts a compact size (with an overall length of 111.5 mm and a weight of approximately 547 g) and is approximately 20% smaller compared to the first generation. On sale from 9/10 2023.

The FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II lens features XD (extreme dynamic) linear stepper motors for silent and fast autofocusing during shooting and filming, and is up to twice as fast as conventional models. Even in high frame rate videos where focus shifts are noticeable, the subject is tracked with high precision. Combined with the Alpha 1 camera body, high-speed continuous shooting at up to 30 frames per second is possible with fast, highly accurate and silent focusing.

The FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM II offers high ergonomics and outstanding performance in still and video shooting. By limiting breathing during focusing during video recording compared to previous models, high-quality image expression can be achieved without angle-of-field fluctuations. In addition, it suppresses center of gravity movement during zooming and enables stable shooting even in setups with a camera stabilizer. Operability has also been improved with features such as an aperture ring that can be switched on/off with a toggle switch, and two focus hold buttons that can be assigned the desired function from the camera body. A fluorine coating is applied to the front lens barrel so that dirt adhering to the lens surface can be easily removed. The dust- and splash-proof design allows the camera to be safely used outdoors...
