    Sony FE 70-200mm f/4 Macro G OSS II Lens (Sony E)

    The Sony FE 70-200mm f/4 Macro G OSS II Lens (Sony E), which Sony has been working on for nine years, is a redesign of their iconic, workhorse telephoto zoom lens that improves autofocus, stabilisation, magnification, and sharpness while shortening and slimming the lens. This most recent version increases the camera's capabilities to include video and macro applications while remaining a portable, everyday mainstay for events, sports, and portraiture.

    The addition of a floating focusing element, which enables the lens' high resolution, represents the major modification to the lens's optical design. By employing 5x "half-macro" magnification, the minimum focusing distance at 70mm is reduced to 10.2". The improved corner-to-corner sharpness and the increased resolution are present throughout the zoom range. To lessen and suppress chromatic and spherical aberrations, the lens has aspherical, Advanced Aspherical, Super Extra-low Dispersion, and extra-low Dispersion aspherical elements. The rounded, nine-blade diaphragm gives the lens its delicate, smooth bokeh, while Nano AR Coating II manages flare and ghosting.

    The main improvement of the 70-200mm f/4 II is its quicker, video-optimised focusing technology. The lens works 20% faster than its predecessor thanks to 4 XD Linear motors, two for each focus group, and it offers focus tracking when zooming. The 30 fps high-speed continuous shooting rate of the Alpha 1, which is twice as fast as the f/4 OSS I, is also compatible with the new focusing mechanism.

    Sony has released several features from their cinema section for anyone keen to use the benefits of the lens for video. The improved autofocus mechanism drastically reduces focus breathing and shift while operating almost silently. The full-time Direct Manual Focus (DMF) feature makes it simple to make quick adjustments using the focus ring when in AF modes. At the same time, the Linear Response MF system assures a consistent, natural-feeling operation.

    The lens' built-in SteadyShot optical image stabilisation, which rounds out the enhancements to image quality, is intended to operate in conjunction with the camera body's stabilisation technology to provide clear images while shooting handheld, even at the greatest focal lengths.

    Sony has redesigned the 70-200mm f/4 II with the user's longevity in mind. As a result, the optic's length and weight have decreased by 15% to 149mm and 794g, respectively. The internal zoom mechanism lessens front-heaviness to ease concentration, while the rubber control rings and dust- and moisture-resistant construction make it appropriate for adverse weather.

    The 70-200mm f/4 FE lens Sony's optional FE 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverters are compatible with GM OSS II. These teleconverters enable life-size, 1:1 macro photography throughout the whole zoom range. The 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverters will give 98-280mm f/5.6 and 140-400mm f/8 as their effective focal lengths and apertures when employed.
