    Clear and Light: Delivers Prime Performance

    The Sony 24-70mm F2.8 GM II lens is truly impressive—images are crystal clear, and the fast F2.8 aperture really helps when shooting in low light or creating beautiful background blur. The big win here is the lighter weight: at around 695 grams, it’s about 20% lighter than the previous version, making a major difference for all-day use or travel.

    Great quality power horse for your daily photo journeys, convenient range to have 1 lens with you all the time. Quality is fantastic, weight is good, but price is high. Still - one of the best lens on the market. Highly recommended.

    By far best lens on the market when it comes to versatility. This lens is your go to when you need to capture all sorts of high quality run and gun content without having to switch lenses. If I had just one lens in my bag it would be this one. Well worth the money and you know you are getting the protection and security you need when buying expensive gear when shopping with Best Buy. 10/10 would recommend.

    I have owned this lens for only about five days. It is the most expensive lens I have ever purchased by many magnitudes, and I am using it on the most expensive camera I have ever purchased (the Sony A7 IV purchased from BB). That said, my impression after four days is simple: magic. This lens is so versatile, the images so sharp, at all magnifications, even out to the edges, and colors jump off the page. I can't believe I'm generating these gorgeous images; it's just magic. I happened to be in a position when I could splurge and treat myself to such an expensive canera lens, and I am totally pleased. I know I will learn a lot more on how best to use this lens, and will grow with this lens and camera, but the results so far have exceeded my expectations. Sony knocked it out of the park. Yes, you pay a high price for this lens, but the money has been well spent.
