Sony G Master FE 50-150mm f/2 GM
The constant f/2 aperture across a 50-150mm zoom range replaces multiple fast primes, making it a unique optic for full-frame E-mount cameras. Its four XD linear motors deliver fast, silent autofocus, while the de-clickable aperture ring and weather-sealed, 1340g build cater to demanding video and stills workflows. This lens is best for wedding and event photographers who need to rapidly switch between portrait focal lengths without sacrificing shallow depth of field.
