Telephoto lens allows you to capture vivid, detailed images from a distance
Compatible with Sony APC-C and full-frame E-mount mirrorless ILC cameras
70mm to 200mm zoom focal length is versatile enough to capture a wide range of shots in varied depths and dimensions
f/2.8 maximum aperture delivers sharp, detailed images with a shallow depth of field and a soft-blurred background
Optical SteadyShot with 5-axis image stabilisation captures smooth images, even at full zoom or while the subject is moving
Switchable Mode 2 stabilisation lets you use image stabilisation with panned shots to deliver clear, blur-free images

Take your photography to the next level

Advanced double-linear actuator for the rear and ring SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor) actuator for the front offer the precision and power required to deliver premium images and footage
Floating focus mechanism reduces distortion and aberration limits for close-up performance

Precise focus, outstanding versatility

Minimum focusing distance of 0.96m (3.15ft.) and magnification up to 0.25x are perfect for capturing telephoto macro, portraits, and more
Circular aperture with 11 blades creates a pleasant bokeh
Fast autofocus is optimised for both images and videos

Stunning details with every shot

Four ED and two Super ED glass elements supress chromatic aberration to deliver maximum resolution and true-to-life colours at varied focal lengths
