Le Sony 24-70 mm f/2,8 GM II est l'un des zooms standards les plus nets et les plus rapides à faire la mise au point que nous ayons jamais testés. Il est plus léger que l'original et offre un autofocus de premier ordre. Il est cher et manque de stabilisation, mais si vous êtes un pro Sony qui veut le meilleur, c'est celui-ci.

Les preuves
Performances
L'autofocus est d'une rapidité stupéfiante. On parle du 98e percentile dans notre base de données, ce qui le place parmi les tout meilleurs actuellement. Les quatre moteurs linéaires XD accrochent instantanément et suivent en silence, donc les vidéastes seront aussi ravis que les photographes. Optiquement, c'est un performer de haut niveau au 97e percentile. La netteté est exceptionnelle à pleine ouverture à f/2,8 sur toute la plage de zoom, et le Nano Revêtement AR II gère le flare comme un champion. Le point faible ? Le bokeh est dans la moyenne, au 40e percentile. Il est agréable et lisse grâce au diaphragme à 11 lamelles, mais n'attendez pas la séparation de rêve d'une focale fixe lumineuse. Et il n'y a pas de stabilisation ici, ce qui le place dans la moitié inférieure de notre classement. Si votre boîtier a un IBIS, vous êtes tranquille, mais ça vaut le coup de le savoir.

Face à la concurrence
Le Canon RF 28-70 mm f/2,8 IS STM est le rival le plus direct et il inclut la stabilisation, que Sony zappe. C'est un vrai avantage pour les utilisateurs Canon. Le Tamron 18-300 mm offre beaucoup plus de portée et coûte moins cher, mais vous sacrifiez l'ouverture constante f/2,8 et cette qualité optique haut de gamme. Le Sigma 16-300 mm est un autre concurrent superzoom qui privilégie la polyvalence à la qualité d'image pure. Si vous avez besoin d'un seul objectif qui fait tout, des paysages grand-angle aux portraits serrés, sans aucun compromis sur la netteté ou l'autofocus, le Sony reste en tête. Mais si vous voulez la stabilisation ou alléger votre portefeuille, ces autres options méritent un bon coup d'œil.

Prix
Rapport qualité-prix
Soyons honnêtes, cet objectif est cher. L'écart de prix entre les vendeurs est énorme, allant de 1314 $ à 3596 $. Si vous pouvez l'attraper dans le bas de cette fourchette, c'est un investissement solide pour un pro en activité. Au prix plein près de 3600 $, vous payez une sacrée prime pour le badge Sony et ces 5 % de performance supplémentaires. Le score de valeur est de 77,8 sur 100, ce qui est bien au-dessus de la moyenne pour cette catégorie. Ce n'est pas une affaire, mais c'est un outil qui vous rapportera pendant des années. Magasinez et évitez de payer près du haut de cette fourchette de prix.
En savoir plus
Aperçu
Sony a mis au régime tout ce que les pros adoraient sur le 24-70 mm GM d'origine. Le GM II est 22 % plus léger et nettement plus compact, ce qui fait une vraie différence quand il reste vissé sur l'appareil toute la journée. À 695 g, il s'équilibre parfaitement sur les boîtiers Alpha modernes sans donner l'impression d'être lourd à l'avant. L'ouverture constante f/2,8 est toujours là, et les performances optiques sont quasiment irréprochables d'un coin à l'autre. C'est l'objectif que vous attrapez quand vous ne pouvez en emporter qu'un seul et qu'il doit réussir chaque prise.
Questions fréquentes
Q: Cet objectif a-t-il une stabilisation d'image ?
Non, l'objectif lui-même n'a pas de stabilisation optique. Il repose sur la stabilisation intégrée au boîtier (IBIS) des appareils Sony Alpha, qui fonctionne bien pour la plupart des situations de prise de vue.
Q: L'ouverture f/2,8 est-elle constante sur toute la plage de zoom ?
Oui, il maintient une ouverture maximale constante de f/2,8 de 24 mm à 70 mm, ce qui est idéal pour une exposition cohérente et la prise de vue en basse lumière.
Q: De combien est-il plus léger par rapport à la version originale ?
Il est environ 22 % plus léger et 18 % plus petit que le 24-70 mm GM de première génération, pesant 695 g. La différence est immédiatement perceptible sur l'appareil.
À qui ce produit ne convient pas
Si vous êtes un amateur ou un photographe occasionnel, le prix et le poids sont probablement excessifs. Vous obtiendrez 90 % des performances avec un zoom Tamron pour la moitié du prix. Et si vous filmez beaucoup de vidéo à main levée sans stabilisateur, l'absence de stabilisation d'objectif pourrait vous orienter vers le Canon RF 28-70 mm f/2,8 IS STM à la place.
Verdict
C'est le zoom standard pour les utilisateurs Sony qui refusent de compromettre la qualité d'image ou la vitesse d'autofocus. Les photographes de mariage, les photographes d'événements et tous ceux qui ont besoin d'un cheval de bataille polyvalent le trouveront indispensable. Le gain de poids par rapport à l'original le rend viable pour une utilisation toute la journée, et les performances optiques sont aussi bonnes que possible sur un zoom. Prévoyez juste le budget et peut-être un pare-soleil tiers.
