Sony G Master SEL1635GM 16-35mm
A 20% weight reduction to just 547g makes this f/2.8 zoom remarkably portable without sacrificing its constant aperture or weather-sealed build. Four XD Linear Motors deliver fast, silent autofocus and the 0.32x maximum magnification offers close-focusing versatility rare in wide-angle zooms. This lens is best for landscape and architecture photographers who need a lightweight, full-frame 16-35mm optic for demanding field work.
