Key Specs
Lens Mount Compatibility: Sony A-Mount
Lens Type: Telephoto Zoom
Minimum Focal Length: 70 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
Maximum Focal Length: 200 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
Maximum Aperture: f/2.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
General

Product Name: 70-200mm f/2.8 G SSM II Telephoto Zoom Lens for Select Sony Alpha Cameras
Color: White
Compatibility
Brand Compatibility: Sony
Lens Mount Compatibility: Sony A-Mount
Tripod/Monopod Mountable: true (A support function that allows the device to be mounted to monopods and tripods for leveling and stability.)
Dimensions
Product Weight: 2.9542 pounds (The out of box weight of the item.)
Product Length with Lens Closed: 7.75 inches
Product Diameter: 3.5 inches (The out of box diameter of the item, measured as a straight line passing from side to side of the item, through its center.)
Imaging
Lens Type: Telephoto Zoom
Auto/Manual Focus: Automatic
Field of View at 1000 yards: 34.3 feet (The area of a target, measured horizontally from the location of viewing, that can be observed.)
In-Lens Image Stabilization: false (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. Lens stabilization means an element within the lens moves automatically to counteract detected motion.)
Exposure Control
Minimum Focal Length: 70 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
Maximum Focal Length: 200 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
Minimum Focus Distance: 46.8 inches
Maximum Aperture: f/2.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
Minimum Aperture: f/32 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
Focal Length 35mm Film Equivalent: 105-300mm (The focal length of the lens that provides the same field of view as a 35mm film camera.)

Designed for use with most Sony Alpha cameras with an A-mount, this Sony G-Series SAL70200G2 telephoto zoom lens helps you capture crisp, clear images. An SSM (super sonic wave motor) enables smooth, rapid autofocusing.
Compatible with most Sony Alpha cameras with an A-mount: For use with your existing camera. Also compatible with optional Sony 1.4x (SAL14TC) and 2.0x (SAL20TC) teleconverters (not included) and select APS-C-sensor cameras.
SSM (super sonic wave motor): Achieves high torque at low speeds with rapid start and stop responses to enable smooth, quiet autofocusing. A piezoelectric device enables the motor to reshape itself quickly when voltage is applied.
70-200mm focal length: Allows you to capture a variety of scene types; 35mm equivalent 105 - 300mm (APS-C).
0.21x magnification: Enables you to bring subjects into clear view.
f/32 minimum aperture and f/2.8 maximum aperture: For optimal light gathering, resulting in clear, detailed images.
19 elements in 16 groups with 9 circular-aperture blades: Including 2 ED (extra-low dispersion) glass elements to minimize chromatic aberration to ensure sharp images with faithful color reproduction.

Excellent Lens, Must have
This lens is super sharp and very fast. I have used this lens for outdoor and indoor sports of my kids. It is heavier than one might expect, but then again it is an F2.8 which adds glass. Fits nicely with my Alpha 7 using the sony LEA adapter.

Very Heavy
This lens is solid but very heavy. If you are going to get a 70-200 dont go cheap...buy the best.
