How can you capture stunning landscapes, night scenes, and architectural shots with precision and clarity The answer lies in the FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM Lens for Sony E. This high-quality, durable lens offers an ultra-wide angle of view at the 12mm end of its range, making it an ideal choice for photographers seeking versatility and innovation in their equipment.The advanced optical design of this lens, combined with Sony's cutting-edge XD Linear Motors, delivers exceptional G Master image quality. This lightweight lens also features fast, precise autofocus, smooth control, and solid reliability, making it a top choice for both professional and amateur photographers.The lens boasts three XA (extreme aspherical) elements, including the largest ever made for any Alpha lens, along with one aspherical element. This innovative design ensures stunning G Master resolution throughout the image area, providing you with crisp, clear images every time.To further enhance image quality, the lens includes two Super ED (Extra-low Dispersion) and three ED glass elements. These elements suppress chromatic aberration, ensuring that color smearing does not occur anywhere in the image area, maintaining maximum sharpness throughout.The lens also features a new Nano AR Coating II, developed to suppress internal reflections that can cause flare and ghosting. This ensures clear, crisp imagery, even in difficult lighting conditions. Despite the lens's wide angle of view, Nano AR Coating II maintains high clarity and contrast throughout the entire image.Weighing only 29.88 ounces, this lens is surprisingly small and lightweight. Its compact design, combined with high-performance XD Linear Motors, makes it ideal for active sports shooters who want to use ultra-wide angles.The lens also offers gorgeous G Master bokeh, thanks to the extremely high surface precision of its XA elements. The fine tuning of its spherical aberration characteristics during both design and manufacture, plus a nine-blade circular aperture, contribute to exquisitely smooth, creamy G Master bokeh.The lens features a floating focus mechanism that divides the lens's focus group into two independently controllable groups. This mechanism is extremely effective in minimizing aberration that varies with focusing distance, ensuring top performance from infinity to close-up focus, throughout the entire zoom range.With a constant F2.8 maximum aperture at all focal lengths, the lens is perfect for flexible moviemaking. The aperture does not change while zooming, allowing for consistent exposure, shutter speed, and ISO sensitivity while shooting movies.The lens is also dust and moisture-resistant, providing the reliability needed for outdoor use in challenging conditions. The front lens element features a fluorine coating that repels water, oil, and other contaminants, while making it easier to wipe off any contaminants or fingerprints that do become attached to the lens surface.The lens offers natural, linear manual focus response, ensuring that the focus ring responds directly and linearly to subtle control when focusing manually. It also features fast, precise autofocus and tracking, thanks to a total of four XD Linear Motors, two for each of the lens's focus groups.The lens also includes a rear filter holder for standard sheet-type ND, color correction, and other filters, allowing for expanded expressive capability. A focus mode switch allows for instant switching between auto and manual focus mode, while a conveniently placed focus hold button offers easy focus hold control.Finally, the lens comes with an integral lens hood that effectively blocks off-axis light that can cause flare and ghosting. The supplied lens cap covers the hood, attaching easily and locking securely with the hood at any angle. This lens is a comprehensive solution for photographers seeking superior performance and versatility in their equipment.
