Sony introduces the SEL70200GM2 full-frame lens, an extremely lightweight and fast lens for stills and movies. The advanced optical design features an XA (extreme aspherical) element that provides incredibly high resolution to the edges of the image and beautiful background defocus (bokeh). Four XD (Extreme Dynamic) linear motors ensure fast, accurate, and quiet autofocus and tracking in this lightweight Sony G Master lens. The SEL70200GM2 is also excellent for shooting video, offering smooth, fast, and continuous autofocus performance with minimized focus breathing, focus shift when zooming, and axis shift when zooming for challenging images.
The combination of an XA element, two ED (extra low dispersion) elements, two Super ED elements, and a developed aspherical ED element delivers outstanding resolution and beautiful bokeh in this F2.8 telephoto lens, making it ideal for sports, wildlife, portraits, and videography. The 11-blade circular aperture creates stunning circular background bokeh effects at a wide F2.8 aperture, even in bright sunlight and backlit conditions.
Sony's Nano AR Coating II is evenly applied to the element surface, effectively minimizing internal reflections to prevent flare or ghosting, making this lens suitable for sports, wildlife, and other light-sensitive shooting situations. The four XD linear motors provide faster and more precise focusing than conventional lenses for both photography and videography. You won't miss a shot with this wide aperture telephoto lens. The dust and moisture resistant construction, along with versatile controls, make this Sony telephoto lens ideal for use in the toughest situations, both indoors and outdoors. The SEL70200GM2 lens minimizes focus breathing, focus shift, and axis shift when zooming for refined images.

Photographers with professional demands get a very good lens for the lower telephoto range with the Sony FE 70-200 mm F2.8 GM OSS II, which not only scores in sports and nature photography, but also in portraits and close-ups.
The equipment is also very well done: this includes a focus range limiter, a selection switch that determines whether the photographer can also override the AF with the focus ring in tracking AF, individually assignable focus memory buttons and three modes for the image stabiliser OSS.
