Sony FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II (Black) | (SEL1635GM2)

Small and lightweight F2.8 wide-angle zoom

FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II delivers a dynamic wide-angle perspective, extraordinary resolution and bokeh, enhancing the speed and performance of advanced camera bodies. Unrivaled AF delivers advantages for stills and video, a versatile lens that's also the smallest and lightest2 in its class.

G Master's breathtaking resolution

High spatial resolution ensures detailed rendering right to the edges of the image throughout the 16-35mm zoom range, even when the lens is wide open. Five aspherical elements, including three XA (extremely aspherical) elements, effectively control aberration for high resolution and stunning bokeh.

Extreme resolution and bokeh

Smooth, beautiful bokeh is ensured by the large F2.8 aperture, innovative optical design and advanced 11-blade aperture. The FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II also boasts exceptional close-up performance, with a minimum focusing distance of 0.22m (0.73ft) and a maximum magnification of 0.32x. Zoom in to capture a dynamic perspective and take advantage of additional expressive possibilities with bokeh.

Enhanced for exceptional movie viewing

Less focus jitter, focus shift, and axis shift during zooming help ensure a smooth movie image, while XD (Extreme Dynamic) linear processors and advanced aperture reduce noise and vibration. A low-shift center of gravity ensures maneuverability and stability when shooting handheld, and eliminates the need to readjust zoom settings when using a tripod.

Smooth, precise, quiet and lightning fast AF

FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II sliding focus mechanism with four original XD linear processors and precise lens control for 2x faster AF. With the Sony α1 body, continuous shooting is possible at up to 30 fps. Focus reliably and track subjects smoothly, achieving critical focus in slow motion and 4K/8K movies.

Smallest and lightest in its class

Although the FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM II is the world's smallest and lightest3, it delivers outstanding image quality thanks to its advanced optical design with XA elements and Super ED (Extra Low Dispersion) glass. Lightweight high-thrust XD linear processors further contribute to the low weight of just 547g (19.3oz). That's about 20% less than the E 16-35mm F2.8 GM. Overall length is compact at 111.5 mm (4-1/2 in.).
