Powerful color accuracy and excellent rendering is yours when you use this Sony 24-70mm f/4 camera lens. It's ideal for full-frame cameras, but you can also useit on crop sensor cameras that use the E-mount system as well as a variety of Sony NEX camcorders. It's ideal as a secondary lens for both studio work and outdoors, thanks to its flexible zoom design that incorporates Carl Zeiss opticsfor impressive color and contrast. Extra-low dispersion glass and aspherical lens elements in this Sony camera lens reduce diffraction, ghosting and flare toproduce outstanding images that are free from optical effects.

This Sony 24-70mm f/4 camera lens stands out because of its constant aperture that remainsthe same throughout the zoom range. As a result, you can use this E-mount lens for moviemaking because you don't have to keep altering the light sensitivity, and you get consistent lighting throughout, even when you're zooming in on your subject. If you want to stop the lens down, it creates impressive depth of fieldso that you can bring everything into sharp focus. Optical SteadyShot image stabilization help to compensate for shake and judder to produce clear, crisp images even when the light is low when you use this Sony 24-70mm f/4 camera lens.

Sony Vario-Tessar T* FE 24-70 mm F4 ZA OSS - A versatile zoom for everyday shooting
The optical performance and 24mm to 70mm 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 seven series bodies for a wide range of subjects.

• Circular 7-blade aperture for beautiful defocus effects
• Dust and moisture-resistant design

Refined optics deliver stunning images
Five 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.

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 color quality across the entire focal length - even at large aperture settings.

Outstanding color 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 color and contrast that give images a deep, three-dimensional feel.

Always sharp and clear
Built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization 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.

Seven-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.
