Description

Rent the Sony FE 16-35 mm f/2.8 GM II lens for unparalleled performance. Due to the 4 XD linear focus motors, you can get fast focusing. With a sophisticated design featuring 17 elements, including XA, Aspherical, Super ED, and ED elements. The front element is coated with Nano AR Coating II, ensuring improved resistance to flare and ghosting. The integral lens hood effectively blocks off-axis light, providing optimal clarity for your shots.

The smallest, lightest* F2.8 wide-angle lens in the world

The FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II delivers dynamic wide-angle perspectives with extraordinary resolution and bokeh and maximizes the speed and performance of advanced camera bodies. The unmatched AF performance of this lens offers benefits for both photo and video. In addition, this lens is also the smallest and lightest* of its kind.

Breathtaking G Master Resolution

High spatial resolution for detailed viewing across the entire 16-35mm zoom range, even with the lens open. Five aspherical elements, including three XA elements (extremely aspherical). Aberration is checked for a mix of high resolution and bokeh.

Extraordinary resolution and bokeh

A smooth bokeh is made possible by an aperture of F2.8, an optical design, and an advanced aperture unit. The FE 16-35 mm F2.8 GM II also offers close-up shots with a focus distance of 0.22 m (0.73 ft) across the entire zoom range and a magnification of 0.32x. Close-ups for dynamic perspectives with deep bokeh for expressive possibilities.

Refined for excellent video footage

Reduced focus breathing, changes in focus, and axis-display during zooming for smooth video images. Linear XD motors (extremely dynamic) and a diaphragm unit reduce noise and vibration. A center of gravity that hardly changes contributes to the stable handling of handheld shots without having to reset the camera after changing the zoom setting.

Smooth, accurate, quiet, and lightning-fast AF

The FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II features a focusing mechanism with four linear XD motors and lens control for a 2x** higher AF speed. This allows you to shoot continuously at 30 fps in combination with Sony’s α1 body.*** The lens reliably focuses and tracks subjects, achieving focus in slow motion and 4K/8K movies.

The smallest and lightest** in his class in the world

Even though it is the smallest F2.8 16-35 mm zoom lens in the world**, the FE 16-35 mm F2.8 GM II delivers extraordinary image quality thanks to XA elements and Super ED glass (extra low scattering) in an optical design. Powerful linear XD motors contribute to a weight of only 547 grams (19.3 oz.). That is 20% lighter than the E 16-35mm F2.8 GM. The total length is only 111.5 mm (4-1/2 inch).

Professional operation and reliability

An ON/OFF button and locking switch for setting the aperture. Focus lock provides access for horizontal or vertical shots. You can assign one function to the focus lock buttons via the menus on the case. Seams are sealed, buttons and switches have silicone rubber and the rubber ring ensures sealing of the lens.****
