In addition to an ideal zoom range for nature, sports, and other photography that requires a bit more “reach” that a mid-range zoom provides, this lens offers outstanding corner-to-corner sharpness from 70mm to 200mm in a compact, lightweight unit that is a perfect match for compact full-frame E-mount bodies like the α7 series. Being a G Lens it can also produce smooth, creamy background bokeh.

Power up your lens to further enhance shooting ease.
State-of-the-art optics in a compact, lightweight lens with constant F4 maximum aperture offer the appealing, expressive image quality that the G Lens lineup is famous for.
Optimum sharpness and bokeh in one lens
AA (advanced aspherical) elements, super ED glass, the Nano AR coating, and a 9-blade circular aperture deliver outstanding sharpness with gorgeous background bokeh.
Lightweight mobility and smooth control
A compact, lightweight design maximizes mobility, internal focusing keeps lens length constant for better handling, and a number of other refinements enhance overall control.
Always sharp and clear
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization compensates for camera shake that can blur images when shooting handheld, for sharp, clear telephoto shots and low-light indoor images.
