Overview
THIS IS A USED ITEM
IMAGES ARE FOR ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES ONLY
Condition: Good
Get the ability to cover the range from 70 to 200mm where much of the telephoto action occurs with G lens refinement and class. A constant f/2.8 aperture affords some significant photographic advantages, making it easier to create beautifully defocused backgrounds, but more importantly allows you to use faster shutter speeds to achieve equivalent exposure, making it possible to capture motion that might end up as a blur with a slower lens.
Telephoto Zoom
This superb 70-200mm zoom lens is an excellent choice for a wide range of medium to long-distance telephoto applications. (35mm equivalent when used with APS-C format cameras: 105-300mm.)
G Series Optical Performance
Sony's G-Series lenses are designed for maximum descriptive power, maintaining excellent peripheral light characteristics and maximizing contrast even at the edges of the frame.
Superb Minimum Focusing Distance
With the ability to focus as closely as 3.9 feet (1.2m), this telephoto lens also lets you move in for dramatic shots of people, natural subjects and close-up details.
Multi-Element Design
The SAL70200G incorporates 19 elements in 16 groups for high optical precision from the center of the image all the way to the corners.
Uncommonly fast aperture
The fast f/2.8 aperture enables shooting at much higher shutter speeds to freeze action.
SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor)
Designed for fast, smooth, silent automatic focusing, this unique technology achieves high torque at low speed with rapid start/stop response. It operates through the ability of a piezoelectric device to reshape itself quickly when voltage is applied.
In-Camera Image Stabilization
Works with the SteadyShot INSIDE™ image stabilization built into Sony α DSLRs.
Circular Aperture
Because the aperture blades form a near circle at the wide openings used for low-light shots, spot-light sources have a pleasing circular defocused effect. The lens features nine aperture blades.
Superb flexibility
The 2.8x zoom range goes all the way from 70mm, suitable for portraits and other medium-angle shots, to a telephoto 200mm.
ED (Extra-low Dispersion)
Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements minimize chromatic aberration for sharp, clear images with well defined colors.
Focus Range Limiter
Used when you need the quickest possible autofocus response within a certain focal range. The lens will only autofocus within the set range eliminating AF at focal lengths outside.
Works with Optional Teleconverters
Compatible with optional Sony SAL14TC (1.4x) which extends focal length to 280mm (35mm equivalent when used with APS-C format cameras: 420mm) and SAL20TC (2.0x) teleconverters which extends focal length to 400mm (35mm equivalent when used with APS-C format cameras: 6900mm). Teleconverters are compatible with manual focus only.
