Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM Lens

The Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM Lens is a versatile and high-speed wide-angle zoom lens specifically designed for full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras. With its constant f/2.8 maximum aperture, this lens delivers consistent performance and excels in low-light situations. Its optical design includes advanced features like two extra-low dispersion elements, two XA elements, and three aspherical elements, which effectively minimize chromatic and spherical aberrations, resulting in exceptionally sharp and clear images. Moreover, the lens is equipped with a Nano AR coating that effectively reduces ghosting and lens flare, resulting in improved contrast and colour accuracy, even in challenging lighting conditions.

Complementing the optical assets, this lens is also notable for its inclusion of an 11-blade circular diaphragm to produce smooth, soft-edged bokeh with selective focus imagery. For controlling focus, two Direct Drive SSM AF groups are employed that are quick and quiet, and also lend more responsive control for manual focus operation. The lens also sports a dust- and moisture-sealed design to support shooting in inclement conditions and a dedicated focus hold button and AF/MF switch.
