Product details

Versatile 70-200 mm telephoto/macro zoom. With the particularly compact telephoto zoom range of 70-200 mm, even distant subjects can be captured with outstanding sharpness and high contrast. The FE 70-200 mm F4 Macro G OSS II is ideal for both videos and photos. The maximum constant aperture of F4 enhances the blending properties of zoom and video recording. This lens features a modern optical design, ensuring excellent image quality at all focal lengths.

Experience excellent sharpness and bokeh with this lens. The state-of-the-art optics provide impressive sharpness, clarity, color, and contrast, while the exceptionally smooth full-frame bokeh is enhanced by a 9-blade circular aperture mechanism and carefully optimized spherical aberration. The balanced blend of resolution and bokeh contributes to images with spatial depth.

The minimum focus distance is 0.26 m at wide angle and 0.42 m at telephoto, with a maximum magnification of 0.5x, offering unrivaled handling and flexibility in photo and video shooting. Fast, precise, and quiet autofocus is achieved through four of Sony's high-thrust XD linear motors, developed with a floating focus group for extreme speed. Shift efficiency has been significantly improved, offering approximately 20% faster autofocus speed throughout the zoom range for photo shooting. Focus tracking continues even when zooming, ensuring no important moment is lost.

Designed for better video, numerous functions of this lens are tailored to demanding film shooting. When manual focus is activated, the linear response is reduced to enhance control. The advanced lens technology minimizes focus breathing, avoiding focus and axis shift when zooming.

Sony mirrorless, 43 MP, KB: With the 4/70-200 mm G OSS II, Sony renews a central lens of its G-Master series for 2000 Euros. With all three tested focal lengths we measured a good 2300 LP for the centre of the image at F4 and also good to very good contrast values. At the same time, the edge fall-off is consistently low to minimal...

  • PositiveThe classic telephoto zoom with focal lengths from 70 to 200 millimetres is combined with a powerful macro function in the new Sony lens.
  • NegativeThe high price shows the orientation of the lens towards the professional sector
  • NegativeAnnoying because the performance makes it very tempting for normal users

Among zoom lenses, the Sony FE 4/70-200 mm Macro G OSS II is a technical gem, but it comes at a high price. For the money, however, the user gets top optical technology for many shooting situations, especially in nature, animal and macro photography.
