If you don’t require the extra stop in speed offered by the FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS and fancy a smaller, lighter lens that covers the same practical focal length, the FE 70-200mm F4 G OSS makes a perfect choice. Removing the tripod collar makes it lighter still, and with dust and moisture resistance, focus lock buttons between its zoom and focus rings, and an excellent optical performance throughout, there’s very little not to like. It conveys a feeling of premium quality when it’s paired with A7-series full-frame cameras and turns into a 105-300mm zoom on APS-C format E-mount cameras. Sony has triumphed with their compact 70-200mm f/4 offering.

The details
This compact, lightweight telephoto zoom lens is ideal for full-frame E-mount bodies, delivering superb G Lens image quality throughout the zoom range. AA (advanced aspherical) elements, Super ED and ED glass elements, the Sony Nano AR Coating, and a 9-blade circular aperture add up to refined rendering with smooth bokeh where desired. Maximum aperture is a constant F4, and the physical length of the lens does not change when zooming or focusing. Dual linear motors ensure fast, precise focusing. Focus hold, range limiter and other controls are located on the barrel for easy access. Optical SteadyShot image stabilization is built in.
