Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II review

The Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II is an impressive upgrade on its predecessor in terms of overall image quality, speed of autofocus and, most impressively, the massive reduction in weight of 435g. This makes it the lightest lens of its kind currently available. As a workhorse lens, it will undoubtedly be a hit with professionals, though that does mean it comes with a hefty price tag.

Excellent levels of sharpness; Lightweight for this type of lens; Fast and positive autofocus;

Vignetting at f/2.8; Larger than the FE 70-200mm f/4; Expensive
