We review the brand new Sony FE 70-200mm f.28 GM OSS II lens, offering the lightest 70-200mm f2.8 lens for full-frame cameras.

Sony’s new FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS II lens is lighter and optically superior to its predecessor, plus it has speedy linear focus motors that make it a good match for the company’s fastest mirrorless cameras.

I’ve tried several 70-200mm lenses for the Sony system, and even as I stood there holding it in my hands, I could hardly believe the new 70-200mm f/2.8 II from Sony. The Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II lens has still not been released yet at the time of writing, but it is expected to be released sometime in December 2021 or early 2022. Previously, there have only been two options from Sony to scratch the 70-200mm itch, and neither of them were particularly good. The f/4 version is fine; it’s lightweight but slow.

The ultimate workhorse telephoto for Sony fans
