Sony unveils a game-changing innovation for photography and videography enthusiasts: the G Master FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II lens (model SEL1635GM2). Designed specifically for 35mm full-frame α (Alpha) E-mount cameras, this lens is set to revolutionize the way you capture the world. Covering focal lengths from 16mm to 35mm and boasting a maximum aperture of F2.8 across the entire zoom range, the FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II is an absolute powerhouse in imaging excellence.
With unparalleled descriptive prowess and lightning-fast autofocus (AF), the FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II lens is poised to cater to photographers and videographers who demand nothing but the best. Its advanced G Master technology not only elevates the performance of Sony’s cutting-edge camera bodies but also ensures that every shot you take is a masterpiece.
Sony engineers have reimagined lens optics to craft the world’s smallest and lightest high-resolution F2.8 wide-angle zoom lens. The secret lies in the ingenious arrangement of the XA (extreme aspherical) lens, delivering exceptional resolution and F2.8 aperture across the zoom range. Thanks to its innovative aspherical shape, the lens achieves unrivaled clarity and stunning G Master bokeh.
Bringing the lens even closer to your subject, it flaunts a minimum shooting distance of 0.22m and a maximum shooting magnification of 0.32x. Sony’s Nano AR Coating II minimizes ghosting and flares, ensuring that every image captured is crisp and vibrant.
Weighing in at approximately 547g and measuring just 111.5mm in length, the FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II is a feat of engineering marvel. Its compact form doesn’t compromise on performance; in fact, it’s about 20% lighter than its predecessor. This lightweight design makes it an ideal companion for photographers on the move, enhancing mobility without sacrificing quality.
Featuring the latest XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors, the FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II ensures extraordinarily fast and precise autofocus. The result? Quiet AF perfect for both stills and videos. It’s up to twice as fast as conventional models, enabling seamless subject tracking even during high-frame-rate videos. For those wielding the α1 camera body, this lens facilitates high-speed continuous shooting of up to 30 fps, combined with high-precision focusing.
Sony’s FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II lens is engineered with the utmost user experience in mind. It minimizes focus breathing during video recording, guaranteeing consistent image expression. The lens also stabilizes the center of gravity during zooming, ensuring steadiness while shooting with a gimbal. Enhanced operability features, such as a switchable aperture ring and two assignable focus hold buttons, further streamline your creative process.
Embracing modern needs, the FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II boasts a front lens with a Fluorine coating, making dirt removal a breeze. Dustproof and splashproof, it’s a reliable companion for outdoor shooting. Capture freely and fearlessly, knowing that your lens is designed to withstand the elements.
The G Master FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II (model SEL1635GM2) is set to launch in selected retail outlets and online stores in late September 2023.
