Pros: almost perfect construction, very sharp species when used in sweet spot, LIGHTNING AF, amazing general rendering

Cons: Flare, weight, cost

Opinion: My absolute favorite glass. I don't regret buying at all, if I listened to the urge I'd sleep there. I could sing the praises until the end of time. But it is not a defect-free lens: soft pushed to 200, the lampshed has the filter door that opens every two by three. Not indifferent weight, unbalances ML bodies like our Sony. And then, stick flare. I like to exploit them in backlight portraits, but such a dear optics shouldn't suffer like this. But I repeat: character to sell, if one can afford it is amazing, his for everything including the views.

Pros: Stunning AF, sharpness, Bokeh, stabilization: it's a blade that doesn't miss a beat.

Cons: Cost; Weight (?) but how could it not be otherwise?!

Opinion: I took it because the canvas is my size and guys, what a lens! Sometimes it seems that she does everything she does and you just have to press the shutter button. It drives me crazy for the incredible precision and speed of the AF, the sharpness even at TA, the stabilization that allows you to shoot with absurd times. When you have to seize a moment and think you're late, often, you've got it all right. It's a lens that when I choose what to put in my backpack, in the end, I can't help but take. Although it remains unbalanced for the Sony "little bodies", given the not indifferent weight, I think it is a matter of feeling and once you understand how to hold it, said brutally, it is only a pleasure to use. The sore point can be represented, perhaps, only by cost.

Pros: Sharpness, AF, image quality, stabilizer, three-dimensionality

Cons: Moped af sometimes mosquito

Opinion: One of the best canvases I've ever bought! I waited a long time in making it hesitant after the bad experience with the competition! I can say that if I could buy it back 10 times... Fantastic lens under the sharpness, AF speed, versatility and image quality... Nothing to do with the 70-200 f2.8 of a well-known historical "yellow" brand that compares it to Sony seems embarrassing even in the price aspect. 100% satisfied

Pros: All

Cons: Zoom ring a bit hard compared to the competition

Opinion: Professional lens. Proven shortly after the Nikon 70-200 FL, and I must say if they play it. Maybe a hair faster than the Nikon, but probably merit the brutal AF of the D500 compared to the A7R3. It has no flaws, it is a professional lens born to meet the needs of a professional. I personally believe that the 70-200 have arrived at the state of the art, and it is difficult to update them in the future. The only drawback of this lens is probably the not very smooth zoom ring, which instead the Nikon FL possesses, and really allows with a finger to rotate and zoom. The image quality is very good, and it detaches the Nikon VR II NET, but absolutely not the latest version FL. I have to contradict the review of another user. Nikon with the latest version FL has done wonders about the quality and artisticity of the 70-200 to 200mm (I invite you to see comparisons 1:1 between VR II and FL online), and this Sony offers nothing more than the Nikon FL. However, they are always two lenses for two different systems, so it is right that both coexist, and are praised for their qualities. Needless to mention the price, on lenses of the kind intended for professionals is superfluous. An iron like that makes you take the bread home, so every penny is justified.

Pros: Build quality, precision and focus speed, really great bokeh, crazy stabilizer, sharpness

Cons: Absolutely nothing

Opinion: I love the fixed optics, but this Sony 70-200 f/2.8 I had to take it as it is a lens to have in the kit. I tried it one day in a store and I absolutely fell in love with it. Pesa, yes, Maa me little matter the footprint and weight. I found in this lens a quality image, responsiveness, speed and precision focusing in AFC which is a thing out of the ordinary. The sharpness also at TA is crazy. Costa, yes, but worth every penny, I assure you!

Pros: Accuracy, speed, image quality, boken, minimum fire distance

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I say I do not like zooming and work mainly with wide-angle optics but you know: a 70/200 in the optical kit will never end up unused. After being passed from Canon to Sony, first A7 Series then A9, I hired for some photos and video work this GM zoom range. The quality of the overall picture is great, I would say almost as much as the Canon 400 2.8, and I immediately realized that I was dealing with a real-life lens at the top. In the aftermath of working days I brought this lens to all the possible extremes both in terms of fire and light conditions. Difficult if not impossible, at least with A9, blur a picture. Waiting for a bride in front of the church c was an unexpected and I was struck with a truck that did not have to be there. I'm looking for a position to get the bride in the car arriving and suddenly I realize that it was late and I had the last minute to immortalize that moment. There is no time to frame the camera point to the eye subject, without letting the eye on the viewfinder in full sunlight, and then press the buttonclick. Result? Perfect and very beautiful picture. Other sensation I was lucky to take the right time but the likelihood that the photo was slightly blurred was high. When I saw it on the PC monitor I was astonished. I realized that this optic is really superior to any other one on the market with equal features and price. Zoom does not crush the image and if you shoot at 2.8 the boken and gorgeous at any focal point, and remains beautiful and clean even zooming on a distant and small subject as a full-length person occupying a small portion of the shot. The subject is always in focus and the tridimensionality with the background and embarrassing for Canon's analogue and worse for Nikon. The stabilizer allows you to shoot free-hand video if you have a culturist arm, which is impossible with any other focal-like optics. I see there are still few reviews but many votes and the average is 8.6. I would like to know how many of the users Juza have ever had in the hands of a zoom in this price range and with such a high quality overall. To make an econ comparisonif this zoom costs 3,000 euros the Canon should cost a maximum of 1,700. Obviously it is my opinion. rn

Pros: Sharpness - Precision - Zoom - Bokeh - and much more, and I love to die for it

Cons: Nothing (not even the price)

Opinion: I've taken it from just a few days, and it's simply the best mirror tones for sony. Accurate, stabilized, solid, and wonderfully sharp. The bokeh is of unique authenticity (like all sony G Master optics). If you want, you can fit a converter, made for this optic (there are 2: one is 1.4x and the other 2x), so you save a possible 100-400mm of the G Master. The "no" cost is prohibitive when compared to when it was launched but who has a Sony A7RII, after the wonderful 24-70mm of the G Master, this is to be done absolutely, not because of its versatility but also for the Its precious composition worthy of 70-200mm.

Pros: Actually, there are ONLY pro ... minimum focus at 0.96 ... rnTStop 2.9. Instant AF. stabilizer that seems to 200mm mounted on a tripod. shutter without the slightest fear to 1/15. even less.

Cons: It has no ... even against the price

Opinion: I saw that they have given a weighted average vote of 8.8 ... strange considering that quell'aborto of canon 70-200 2.8 (which I own) is not even comparable to this ... from the minimum focus that is scary (0.96) and that the actual transmission of light is 2.9 .. not as the canon that eventually and almost 4.0 .. but saw them there ... CANON wrote tuuuuutto goes well .. rnrnLente (GOODS) in factories in Japan ... built better than the canon ... EYE-Af ... stabilizing cross with IBIS in leotards and OSS on slow .. 40mpixel of rosoluzione .. no distortion. AC .. non-existent and does not have that crap ghosting effect of the canon and nikon ... and does not suffer from focus breathing .. rnTROPICALIZZATO proof tub ... 2 mode stabilization .. 3 buttons (mirror) and programmable switches for the focusing range. Boleh spectacular .rnrnChi gave votes to the lens ... deserves a value to shoot at life with a machine disposable.
