Sony FE 24-70mm f/4 ZEISS OSS

A great ZEISS zoom for full frame bodiesThis compact zoom lens can bring out the best in full frame E-mount cameras in a wide range of day-to-day shooting situations. A constant F4 maximum aperture enables consistent exposure settings throughout the 24 mm to 70 mm zoom range, while ZEISS optics with the acclaimed T* coating deliver outstanding clarity and beautiful rendering. It is dust/moisture resistant too. Features A versatile zoom for everyday shootingThe optical performance and 24 mm to 70 mm range of this ZEISS® Vario-Tessar® design are a perfect match for compact full-frame E-mount bodies. In addition to consistently superior image quality at all focal lengths, it provides a versatile zoom range in a compact lens that can bring out the very best in 7 series bodies for a wide range of subjects. Refined optics deliver stunning imagesFive aspherical elements and one ED glass element in a state-of-the-art optical path suppress aberration for outstanding clarity and beautiful rendering throughout the range. The acclaimed ZEISS® T* coating controls reflections for superior contrast and a circular aperture contributes to smooth background bokeh with natural highlights. Constant exposure at any zoom setting Constant F4 aperture at all focal lengths means that the user can zoom and shoot at any aperture without having to worry about changes in exposure settings or depth of field, concentrating on the image rather than technical details. Outstanding colour and contrast The ZEISS® T* coating is an important contributing factor, effectively suppressing spurious reflections that can degrade overall image quality. Flare and ghosting are reduced for enhanced colour and contrast that give images a deep, three-dimensional feel. Extra-low Dispersion Glass element Lenses constructed with conventional optical glass struggle with chromatic aberration as the focal length increases. Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass counters these issues, delivering superior contrast and colour quality across the entire focal length – even at large aperture settings. Always sharp and clear Built-in Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilisation compensates for camera shake that can blur images when shooting handheld. Sharp, clear night scenes or indoor shots in dim lighting can be captured without the need to boost ISO sensitivity and risk increased noise. Reliable and easy in any conditions Reliable operation in a variety of conditions is ensured by a design that prevents dust and moisture from entering the lens. 7-bladed circular aperture The 7-blade circular makes it possible to achieve smoother, more natural defocusing in your images. Get creative with artistic blurring or 'bokeh' – and greater control over the depth of field.
