7 days A week in photography Alongside the Alpha A6700, Sony has also released a new full-frame telephoto zoom, in the shape of the FE 70-200mm F4 Macro G OSS II. Designed for such things as nature, portrait, sports, and action photography, it’s a replacement for one of Sony’s very first full-frame E-mount lenses, the FE 70-200mm F4 G OSS. Major updates include much-improved close focusing and a smaller, lighter design.
Optically, the lens employs 19 elements in 13 groups, including three Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements, along with one each of Super ED, aspherical, and advanced aspherical elements. As a result, Sony is promising higher resolution corner-to-corner compared to the older lens. A 9-blade circular aperture is onboard for attractive bokeh, providing settings down to f/22.
