With a constant F2 aperture, the FE 28-70mm F2 G Master ensures sharp, corner-to-corner clarity and vibrant colors, rivaling the quality of prime lenses. Key features include:

  • Advanced Optics: Three XA (extreme aspherical) elements ensure exceptional resolution, while Super ED and ED glass reduce chromatic aberration.
  • Flare Resistance: Nano AR Coating II minimizes ghosting and flare for clear, crisp images even with strong light sources.
  • Exquisite Bokeh: The lens’s unique design and 11-blade aperture deliver soft, dimensional bokeh for professional-grade shots.

Compact and Lightweight Without Compromise

Despite its premium features, the lens remains highly portable, measuring just 92.9 x 139.8 mm and weighing 918 g. Its innovative XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors and optical technologies make it an ideal companion for fast-paced shoots, ensuring no shot is missed.

Advanced Autofocus for Critical Moments

Equipped with four XD linear motors and a cutting-edge algorithm, the lens provides precise autofocus tracking, essential for high-pressure events like weddings and sports. It supports Sony α9 III’s 120 fps high-speed continuous shooting with reliable tracking even during zoom.
