Key Features
Advanced G Master Optics
- Exceptional Resolution and Sharpness: As part of Sony's G Master series, this lens corrects a wide variety of spherical and chromatic aberrations, ensuring high resolution and sharpness across the frame.
- Bright f/2.8 Constant Aperture: Provides consistent performance in low-light conditions and greater control over depth of field.
Superior Coatings and Optical Design
- Nano AR Coating II: Reduces surface reflections, flare, and ghosting, enhancing contrast and colour rendering, particularly effective for larger, curved lens elements.
- Fluorine Coating: Resists dust, moisture, and fingerprints, making it easy to clean and ideal for challenging shooting environments.
High-Performance Optical Elements
- Three XA (Extreme Aspherical) Elements: Provide superior surface precision, effectively controlling astigmatism, field curvature, coma, and distortion.
- Two Super ED Elements: Reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing, ensuring improved clarity and colour neutrality.
Floating Focus System
- Dual Focus Groups: Divides the focus mechanism into two separately controlled groups, maintaining clear optical performance throughout the zoom and focus ranges.
Fast Focusing and Intuitive Handling
- XD Linear Motor System: Utilises four separate motors (two per focusing group) for fast, quiet, and precise autofocus and tracking performance.
- Linear Response Manual Focus Control: Offers natural handling with an AF/MF switch on the lens barrel for tactile control.
- Focus Hold Button: Provides intuitive tactile control and rapid access to select settings.
- Minimum Focusing Distance: 11 inches (28 cm) available throughout the zoom range.
Durable and Practical Design
- Dust and Moisture Resistance: The lens is sealed to withstand inclement conditions, with rubberised control rings for better handling in colder temperatures.
- Integrated Petal-Shaped Lens Hood: Blocks stray light to prevent lens flare and provides physical protection to the front element.
- Filter Holder: Incorporated at the rear of the lens, it accepts cut gel filters, with a filter cutting template included.
