This lens is the smallest and lightest in the 16-35mm wide-angle full-frame zoom segment, F2.8 focal length.
Sony has just launched the G Master FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II wide-angle zoom full-frame lens (code name SEL1635GM2), using E-mount with fixed F2.8 aperture across the entire focal range from 16mm to 35mm. . Previously, Sony's 2nd generation F2.8 zoom lens collection had standard zoom lenses (24 - 70mm) and telephoto zoom lenses (70 - 200mm). These are all the lightest lenses in the world in each segment.
The world's smallest and lightest G Master FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II has a total length of 111.5mm and a weight of about 547g, 20% lighter than the previous generation.
In addition to the ability to remove wide-angle bokeh backgrounds, the new G Master lens also has extremely close focusing distances across the entire focal range with a minimum focusing distance of 0.22m and a maximum magnification of 0.32x. Sony's signature Nano AR Coating II coating is advertised to help capture clear images even when there is a strong light source in the frame.
The FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II is equipped with the latest XD (extreme dynamic) linear motor. It helps the lens achieve quieter autofocus when taking photos and videos. When combined with the Alpha 1 camera body, Sony announced a continuous shooting speed of up to 30 frames per second while still ensuring focus speed.
Besides, FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II also reduces the phenomenon of focus breathing (focus position changes when focal length changes) when recording video compared to the previous generation, now users can practice focus on image quality without sacrificing camera angles. Besides, the new lens also reduces the movement of the center of gravity when zooming and creates stability when recording, thereby helping to optimize the combination with a gimbal.
