20200116 1830. Don't get me wrong, it is a fine lens, but it is $2500 and for that I expected something ... AMAZING! I got the lens for portrait shooting, but so far, I like the pictures from my Tokina 100mm better. The Sony is not quite as sharp at f/2.8. Stop it down to 4, or even 8, and the pictures are crisp. But, if I'm going to shoot at f/8, I could just as well use my Sony 25-250. The real issue for most people getting this lens is the 1:2.8 constant-aperture zoom. That is really nice, and I like the lens, I just didn't get the jolt of excitement I expected. Other reviews will tell you that it is amazingly sharp at f2.8. I just don't find that. Granted, I have only shot maybe 200 shots on it. I will keep testing, and I will update this review if I decide differently, but as of now, I'm not as happy as I thought I would be with it wide open. In fact, when I shoot on the Sigma 150-600, I like the pictures better. I admit, the Sigma is huge, and I'm not so likely to shoot any portraits at 150mm, but ... Anyway, that's the subjective review. Now the objective stuff. 1. It's a big lens. Sony equipped it with an adjustable collar and a tripod foot to better balance it on a tripod. The foot mounts on a rotatable collar that allows adjusting which parts of the lens (or the camera) are oriented toward wherever you need them. This allows shooting portrait or landscape without taking the camera off the tripod. There are dots on the lens body and the collar to help you line up on a perfect 90 degrees. 2. There are three (count 'em, 3) focus hold buttons on the lens. 3. The lens has Optical Steady Shot (hence the OSS in its name) with two modes: 1) normal 2) panning. The OSS works with the in-body stabilization available on the a7 ii, iii, and iv cameras, so, at least in theory, even better stabilization. This is similar to what Sigma offers in the 150-600 I mentioned earlier. On both lenses, I leave them in mode 2. Sony recommends turning off OSS when on a tripod. 4. The lens has SSM (super sonic motor) much like the Canon USM. The SSM is strong, and turns the heavy focusing elements quickly and quietly. If you plan to use this at a wedding, it won't disturb anyone. It also works nicely recording video, especially when combined with constant auto-focus (AF-C). 5. for manual focus and DFM, the lens has a big rubber focus ring. It is a real focus ring you can use comfortably and confidently. Sony did a GREAT job on both the focus ring and the zoom ring. And wait, that's not all: the zoom and focus rings are nearly perfectly spaced to allow easy use with one hand. The lens really fits in the left hand nicely. Good job, Sony! 6. The zoom ring is another big win. Compared to other lenses, the zoom ring is marvelous. It is great without comparing, but Sony really did a good job here as well. The zoom ring completes its entire range of 70-200mm in right at 1/4 of a turn. Other lenses I've used require so much more turning (ahem, cough, the Sigma 150-600 requires a full 1/2 turn). That may not sound like much, but if you are shooting a portrait session, it means you don't ever need to let go of the lens to zoom. 7. The lens hood is better than any other lens I've ever used. I used a lot of lenses. The hood has a common "tulip" shape, that's not the interesting part. Sony put a small port at the bottom side of the hood to allow adjusting filters without removing the hood. The hood also has a lock to keep it from coming off inadvertently. 8. The build quality is superb. The lens is metal, it is heavy, but it is well built. Everything moves smoothly, and it just feels good when you hold it. I warn you now, if you aren't working out, you will want to. This thing weighs a little over 3 pounds! doesn't sound like much until you shoot an hour-long ball game. :-) All in all, so far, it is a great lens.

What the lens gives away in stealth it more than makes up in image quality. First off, it is a huge, heavy intimidating piece of glass and plastic. It can be hand-held, but not for very long. Your back will feel the weight of this monster when you lug it around in a bag. It also sucks up an inordinate amount of space in any camera bag you bring to the party. Even the lens hood is ridiculously chunky. The zooming mechanism falls well into hand and is buttery smooth. Controls are very well thought out with the suppled switches having a nice, solid engagement. It's the little things like the positive feedback from the switches that make the lens a joy to own. Pushed hard on the A7iii the lens did miss focus. But this was in very subpar lighting and continuous focus. Even shooting in horrible lighting at high ISO the camera and lens hit more often than it missed. In better lighting the combination was very accurate Wide open the bokeh is pleasant, it's creamy and unobjectionable. Depth of field is very narrow especially at close focus. Surprisingly, it's a very good landscape lens delivering very good color and sharpness, especially when closed down a bit. While the lens can be used for street and candid photography, it's a bit too obvious for any stealthily shooting. Fit and finish are top notch, which is what you expect from a G Master lens and the price they demand. The lens hood even has a little window that allows you to reach a circular polarizer filter. You do need to remember to close the window BTW. If there is one issue with the lens it is the price Sony demands for it. You can save quite a bit of money by purchasing the Sigma and sacrifice very little in comparison. Tamron provides an even better value proposition. G Master lenses are all about providing the absolute best in the Sony E Mount system, and charging the absolute highest possible mark-up. For obsessive people like me it a trade off we are willing to make, for others the Sigma probably makes more sense.

Everyone seems to be a sceptic until they try the lens for themselves. A little history: I was using Canon L glass with a Metabones adapter for my Sony A7RII before since there weren't any good zoom options prior to this lens. I was fairly satisfied with that setup, that was until I got this lens. It is a WOW lens for me, and I'm enjoying my A7RII much more these days. Here are the exceptional qualities of this lens based on my short experience with it so far: - At its best, it is as sharp as the 55mm f1.8 Zeiss prime lens, and it stays very sharp throughout the focus range. By far the sharpest zoom lens I've ever used. I can pixel peep all day at the RAW images this lens produces with the A7RII and find excellent detail and sharp lines everywhere I look (so long as I didn't fudge the focus). It's a croppers dream lens. - Very nice round bokeh - not ultra creamy smooth, but definitely not noisy or jittery. - Balances well on the A7RII. It feels much better than my previous setup. No fear holding it up by the camera body. - Focuses 2-3x quicker than the Canon/Metabones setup. No flakey focus hunting either. - It makes beautiful photos. Excellent IQ. - Image stabilization for me has been beautiful. It doesn't feel as jerky as some of my other lenses, and is definitely much better than the Metabones/Canon lens setup. - Construction is solid. The buttons and switches feel good and are positioned well. The hood locks into place and feels like it can take a beating. - Constant focus distance is very nice when zooming in on your subject. And here are some nits - nothing worth knocking off a star for: - Some light fringing and chromatic aberration in very high-contrast scenes when shooting RAW, easy to fix post processing. - The zoom ring is just a tiny bit too tight for my use, making it a difficult to turn with 2 fingers. Zooming while taking video without a mount isn't pretty. I'm hoping the ring loosens up after some use, though I don't have to worry at all about lens creep. - I do wish the tripod mount was a bit larger. I'm used to the big tripod mounts on Canon zoom lenses, which make those lenses more comfortable hand-held, and more comfortable as a carry handle. I may look for a foam handle in the future. - For it's size, it is a heavy lens. That's a lot of glass to stuff in that small body.

This is my first premium Sony lens and I love it. Very sharp and versatile for different settings. I was on the fence because of the price but I was not happy with the Tamron 70-180mm. I see now why it's twice the price as Tamron but worth every penny. The optics and build quality definitely feels premium. Holds it value for years to come and is an absolute workhorse. If you're in the market for a telephoto lens, don't cheap out. It's not worth it. The weight doesn't really bother me and I still take it everywhere I can!

I can't recommend the Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 lens enough. If you're into sports photography and have a Sony camera, you need this lens. Pros: Game Changer: I hate using that term, but in this case, it’s true. The lens significantly improved the quality of my sports shots. Excellent Quality: The image quality is outstanding, with sharp, vibrant photos even in challenging conditions. Fast Aperture: The f/2.8 aperture is perfect for capturing fast-moving action with great clarity. Stabilization: The OSS (Optical SteadyShot) stabilization helps keep shots steady, even at the long end of the zoom. Cons: Pricey: It’s an investment, but the performance and results make it worth every penny. Overall, this lens is great for sports photography. If you’re serious about capturing great action shots, this is the lens to get.

I would not recommend this product. I purchased this lens from Focus Camera. The lens arrived in an old box, sealed with what looked like clear packing tape, which was odd, as Sony does not seal their cameras or lenses. To my dismay, upon opening the box it immediately became obvious that lens itself not only had been handled, which was indicated by the disheveled condition of the packaging but it the lens itself had a long, quarter-inch fiber right in the center of the aperture--a fiber which we all know looks like a tree branch when you take a photo. I immediately sent the item back within an hour. Update: I own an A7RII, which is absolutely awesome and an A6500, which is very good. I also own three Zeiss lenses--24mm, 55mm, 85mm Batis. I also own the 90mm macro and the Sony 10-18mm apsc. I love Sony cameras and believe that these two camera bodies and accompanying lenses (particularly the A7RII paired with the 55 and the superb 85 Batis) produce the best still shots that I have ever seen. The A7RII eye auto focus is great, as well. Point is: I love Sony and am committed to Sony. Having said that, the Sony 70-200mm is not as sharp as the 70-200mm Tamron G2 that I bought in place of this used 70-200 Sony. Plus, the Sony 70-200 has terrible low light auto focus issues, which disqualify the lens IMO. The lens hunts and hunts and hunts in low light. Why pay the additional $1300 for the extra stop of light from f/2.8 version over the f/4 version, only to deal with hunting and hunting and hunting? That doesn't make any sense. You might as well go for the f/4, which doesn't have the autofocus issues in low light and is lighter. I decided to use my $2700 to buy an $1800 Nikon D750 and a $1300 Tamron 70-200 G2, for which I ended up paying $1099, because I qualified for a $200 student rebate(check Tamron's website). The Nikon D750 paired with the Tamron 70-200 G2 has NO ISSUES WITH HUNTING in low light, is sharper than the Sony, and acquires focus instantly. Sony produces some of the best glass and the A7RII is the best camera body I have; but the Sony 70-200GMaster is a flawed lens, until they fix the autofocus issues. Moreover, the 90mm macro I own not only has hunting issues in low light but forget about using autofocus for macro work with it, as well, because it hunts and hunts and hunts when doing that, too. I post real reviews, no matter who the manufacturer is. Sony, Canon, and Nikon all produce good glass and bad glass. No manufacturer is perfect. Buy the lens and camera bodies that suit your needs. It's okay to mix it up. UPDATE 11/27/18: I just gave a relative my Nikon D750 (excellent camera) and decided to sell me Tamron 70-200 G2 (excellent lens), only because I don't plan on further investing in Nikon and there isn't a consistently functioning AF adapter for Nikon F to Sony E. Therefore, I've decided to give the 70-200GM a second look, also because I now have an A7RIII.

AF-Very fast. If you shoot at the shortest focusing distances at max focal length, it does tend to hunt from time to time, but that’s the nature of most lenses with long focal ranges. Sharpness-Even wide open (f2.8) and at 200mm, the images are very sharp and only seem to lose a slight bit at the extreme edges of the frame. Weight-This is quite a heavy lens. Expect the weight of a 100-400 f4. That’s one of the downsides of good glass. Even as a long time weight lifter, I find myself wanting a monopod for longer sessions. Preparation and planning makes this a non-issue. Build-Solid! Features-More than you can shake a stick at. I don’t even use half of the preset buttons on it. Cons-Heavy. I also find myself accidentally bumping the focus or range adjustments on the lens. They seem to be designed or placed in slightly inconvenient places. Price. Large Pros-Sharp. Bright. Solid construction. Fast AF. Gorgeous bokeh
