The 70 – 200 mm focal range has been a favourite for photographers seeking quality telephoto zooms. For professionals, a fixed aperture of 2.8 across the zoom range is attractive; however, for enthusiasts and amateurs, the bulk of such lenses and their high prices act as a deterrent. The 70 -200 mm F4 comes in useful here. Sony has had a 70 – 200 mm f 4 for several years; it was now time to upgrade it and therefore the new 70 – 200 mm f 4 Macro G OSS II. The new lens promises better image quality, better autofocus, closer focusing, improved image stabilisation and macro capabilities all in a smaller and lighter design.
