Faster, smaller, lighter, and sharper.
Sony’s Updated 16-35mm f/2.8 G Master II Completes the Zoom TrinitySony has announced the 16-35mm f/2.8 G Master II which joins the 24-70mm and 70-200mm G Master f/2.8 zooms that have also been recently updated to bring their performance in line with modern expectations.
While the lens does physically change length between the wide and zoomed ends, the company says that it can be used on a gimbal without worrying about rebalancing because the center of gravity on the lens is weighted towards the back, so the way it balances remains “virtually unchanged” regardless of focal length. It also has a dedicated aperture ring, an aperture click/de-click switch, and a focus mode switch.
The company says that design enhancements ensure sharp performance across the aperture and zoom range and the advanced optics reduce aberrations, weight, and allow for rapid and accurate autofocus. Autofocus is driven by four of Sony’s extreme dynamic linear motors — two for each of the lens’s focus groups. The company says this system provides smooth, fast, and silent zooming for both photo and video applications.
