Used Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM (G Master) E-Mount NEX Camera Lens

2025-03-04T19:00:00

The Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM delivers outstanding sharpness, beautiful bokeh, and accurate colors, making it perfect for both photography and videography. Its fast and reliable autofocus ensures excellent performance in all conditions, while the premium build and weather-sealing provide durability. The lens is versatile, handling everything from wide-angle to portrait shots with ease. For videographers, it offers minimal focus breathing and smooth manual focus. Though a premium investment, its exceptional quality and performance make it worth every penny. ? Highly recommended!

I agonized, at the time, in getting Sony's GM lens. This seemed to be a lens with great optics. I have used it for some time. My only beef is that Sony, when the new/er 24-70 f2.8 II was released, there was no contact to incentivize and help purchase the newer model. That would have been SO helpful as I cannot turn around and simply buy another.

I bought this lens for my Sony A7Riv and glad I did. This lens is expensive, but if you want a perfect walk-around street lens,this is it. It is on my A7Riv 80% of the time. Colors are natural, distortion minimal and the f2.8 is handy at dusk and after dark. Like all premium 24-70 lenses, it is heavy, but you expect that. Strongly recommend this lens.

This is a good lens but the GM II is smaller, lighter and balances better.

good lens paired with terrible customer service leaves me somewhat disenchanted with the whole experience. Problems had were solved but not by SONY. youtube is your best friend here so please be advised.

This has decided to fall apart and Sony don't care a jot and refuse to take any notice

Probably the single most versatile lens on the market. It's pricey but if you want the best, this is it. I absolutely love it.

Could take any kind of photo whether landscape or portrait. And also the video quality is perfect, with focus on.

Phenomenal piece of glass! Mostly a fast prime enthusiast, I did not expect lo like the 24-70mm GMII this much. Super Sharp and contrasty with flexibility for composition. Feels significantly smaller and lighter than version I.

I recently purchased an FX3 camera and was going back and forth on which lens to buy as my first variable zoom. I knew that whichever one I bought would bear the bulk of my work in the near future. The competitor was half the price so it was tempting. I was saving and finally just decided that I would grab the Sony because it was designed to mate with the camera perfectly. The features are very well thought out and allow me to change things on the fly very quickly (and efficiently) without compromising the shot. Very happy with this lens. The picture quality is the best I've captured.

I wanted the Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 lens for a rather specific purpose: to take pictures indoors without flash. Yes this lens takes good pictures indoors and maybe good for things like weddings when you are close to people. However, now I take many different type of pictures and I find the a 24-70mm lens may not be the best lens to have with it's limits. Today's cameras allow for high IOS, for more latitude in magnification, I have used a Sony 24-240mm and gotten a acceptable indoors. So I am sorry, but a 24-70mm lens may not be for me.

This lens being one of the first G Master lenses on the market still holds up really well. Whenever someone asks "What lens is the best overall lens?" That's easy This one. 24-70 gives you great reach and decent width. Can't go wrong. Any issues I could say about it have been addressed in the new model 2.

Great lens, however, DON'T FALL FOR ADORAMA'S 0% INTEREST FINANCING PLAN SCAM. I ordered this lens over the phone with an agent who never disclosed that genesis credit charges a $9.95 monthly service fee.

Sony Charged me 600.00 to fix this lens. I will be going back to CANON!

I was so excited to get this lens but it intermittently tells me the lens is not attached correctly and won't focus. Everything is clean and new I don't understand. It works fine for hours, then out of the blue it wont focus and gets super dark. It's getting worse and now im afraid to even take it on a shoot. Super bummed.

I have owned the lens for about 1-1/2 months. I have used it for a high-density Christmas in July Party. (5) Paid and (2) Volunteer Events. Because the Sony A7IV has more than enough latitude, the 2.8 f-Stop was not of concern.

The a9 made me switch to sony and i'm slowly building an all sony kit. This lens on my body is drastically out performing its equivalent lens with an adapter. I'm thrilled to finally have this sony glass on my sony body.

This G Master lens is the best I have owned and I have been a keen hobbyist photographer for over 40 years. If any image is not pin sharp, it is because I have done something wrong. I am genuinely delighted with it.

I don't like large mid range zooms, which extend in size when zooming! I much prefer zooms with internal focusing. However, the quality of the images is incredible, starting from the full aperture. On few occasions I didn't think that closing the aperture could improve the sharpness of the images, only to find that it goes to another level when closed down by just one stop. Zoom is disproportionate in size to the compact form facto of the cameras, and requires battery grip for comfortable use. The colour and out of focus areas rendering is excellent.
