Q: QuestionWhat UV filter kit fits the Sony Fe 24-70mm f/2.8 GM lens?
Asked by filter.
- A:Answer Anything 82mm should fit. I would recommend not going cheap. It’s a g master after all and plus you want to be able to remove the filter with ease vs using hand tools and risk scratching the lenses.

Q: QuestionI like to take portraits AND wildlife photos. Does this lens work for both?
Asked by Christa.
- A:Answer yes... but your question suggests you don't have a lot of experience with focal lengths. Not sure I know what YOU would consider appropriate for either subject. The answer is affected by a few things - What size / type of sensor are you putting a lens in front of? Full Frame cameras (like the Sony A7 line) are accurate to the focal length number and utilize the entire lens. APS-C cameras (NEX line) have a crop factor, which mean they use less of the glass and appear to be a longer focal length (simplified answer). Typically a "portrait" lens would be around 85mm, this is not to say you couldn't shoot a great portrait at 35mm (wider composition) or 135mm (telephoto) but when you say portrait lens- 85mm is the starting point most photographers would recognize. Wildlife can be NEAR or FAR, typically it's further away. So Telephoto would be the quick answer. So if those standard / primary definitions are relevant to you... you might be better off with the 70-200mm f2.8 G The 24-70mm f2.8 is an excellent, fast, do-all lens for most purposes (Wide to medium tight) The 70-200mm f2.8 is an excellent lens- a fast, telephoto lens for portraits and more distant subjects that has both optical image stabilization and an optional x2 accessory that effectively makes the lens a 140-400mm. There is also a 1.4x version of this accessory too. Most professionals carry both (and sometimes even the 12-24mm f.28) to have flexibility. Hope that helps you.

Q: QuestionDoes this work/work well with the a7iii? Thanks
Asked by Bryce.
- A:Answer Yes, the 24-70mm is a versatile focal length. The only downside to this lens is the weight. It significantly diminishes the weight saved from a mirrorless camera, such as an A7iii. That being said, this lens is my go to for get togethers and travel even with it’s weight.

Q: Questionwhere is the lens manufactured?
Asked by matt.
- A:Answer Matt, To my knowledge the G Master lenses are designed by Zeiss in Germany and manufactured by Cosina in Japan, but are then assembled in Thailand (I believe). I have 4 G Master lenses (16-35 GM, 24-70 GM, 85 GM, and 70-200 GM) and they all have the same stickers and info on them (see screen shots). On the outside of the lens it says Sony Corp. 1-7-1 Konan Minato-ku Tokyo 108-0075 Japan, but on the inside next to the E-Mount of the lens it says "Made in Thailand" ... The design is key, which is done by the amazing people at Zeiss. The making of the lenses and components themselves are done in Japan to tight specs. The lenses are then assembled, tested, and boxed in Thailand. In my opinion, I would feel much more comfortable if the complete manufacturing, assembly, and testing were done in Japan by Sony employee's.
