Pros & Cons
Pros
- Extreme lightness: It is approximately 30% lighter than the previous version, facilitating prolonged freehand use.
- Ultra-fast focusing: 4 XD motors ensure you don't miss a single frame, even in high-speed bursts.
- Superior optical quality: Corner-to-corner sharpness and almost non-existent chromatic aberrations.
- Professional ergonomics: Includes physical aperture ring, stabilization mode switches and customizable focus hold buttons.
- Optimized for video: Improved touch control and suppression of frame shifts when focusing.
Cons
- High price: It is one of the most expensive optics in the Sony E-mount ecosystem.
- Size: Although it is light, it is still a lens of considerable dimensions that requires space in your backpack.
- White Color: For some street or documentary photographers, the classic white finish of the Sony telephoto lenses may be too striking.
