Gotta say this is hands-down my all time favorite and most used lenses. Short review: great quality, fast linear auto focus, superb weather sealed, and lightweight. From my experience, this lens handles everything easily, it catches focus in a snap, making sure that you won't be missing out on anything. It also has an extra aperture ring, and if you're a videographer, I think this will be a great addition, and it is my personal favorite add-on. Moreover, it has great bokeh and fast aperture that goes all the way down to f/2.8, so you can get your creamy background. Chromatic abberation control is extremely good, almost unnoticable. Sharpness is great across the focal lengths, unless you use 2x teleconverter, then you might notice slight chromatic abberation and sharpness reduction compared to 100-400 GM. Other than that, you'll get GM lens weather sealed quality, means that if you find yourself shooting in extreme weather like heavy rain or blowing sand, this will withstand it without any hassle. On top of that, it has no external zoom, so sand won't be able to get in as easily as other lenses on the market. I've been through all of that and so far, it still functions like a champ, no problems whatsoever. Another big factor for me is the weight, and it was also GM1's biggest problem. It was almost 4lbs heavy, and it gets to the point that you wouldn't want to bring it anywhere and since I got this lens, it weighted only 2.3 lbs, I started using 70-200 more than I would normally. Therefore, if you travel or handheld cameras a lot, then GM 2 would be a clear winner. TL, DR: Must have GM lens if you want to level up your photography. Fixed most of the problems from its predecessor. Worth the money.

There is no question that if you have the money, are in the Sony system, and looking for a high-quality telephoto zoom lens, this is the lens to get. Sharp at f/2.8 and even sharper stopped down to f/4 and f/5.6. I love that it has internal zooming, so there is less chance for dust to enter the lens and less weight shifting when zooming in or out. This second version is also lighter, which I appreciate when shooting hand-held. The only problem is the length, but I can just fit this lens attached to a camera, a second camera with a 24-70mm lens, and 1-2 prime lenses into my Atlas Athlete backpack. The backpack is full and heavy, but it will fit. Even though I mostly shoot landscape, seascape, Milky Way nightscape, and flower/macro photography, this lens adds to my range of lenses (Sony FE 14mm F1.8 GM, Sony FE 24mm F1.4 GM, Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM II, Sony FE 90mm F2.8 Macro G OSS) along with my Sony a7R III and a7 III for different perspectives and purposes. I purchased this lens and received it in December 2022, before my trip to Death Valley National Park. I was glad I had a telephoto zoom as I captured some photos I would not have gotten with my other lenses. Since then, I’ve taken it with me and looked for reasons to use it to give a different perspective compared to wider lenses. After about five months, I’ve had no issues or complaints about this lens. It has been worth it for me, even with the steep price. I now prefer to wait to save up for native glass if it offers high image quality and fast focusing.

No brainer with this lens. Yes it’s expensive, but “buy nice or buy twice” is real when it comes to camera gear. If you’re looking for the best and most reliable 70-200 this is the one. Been shooting a lot of sports recently and it’s been absolutely fantastic for me. Lighter weight than its older version and auto focus is top quality.
