San Diego, CA—The Sony 28-70mm F2 G Master is the company’s first zoom lens with a constant F2 aperture. The full-frame lens has a handy 28mm to 70mm focal range and achieves prime-like bokeh. Despite its wide aperture and zoom range, it is compact, lightweight as well as balanced (3.6×5.5 inches, 32.3 ounces). Thus, it is an option for both photography and video applications. Moreover, its attributes make it a solution for portrait, sports, wedding, event as well as video professionals.
