Extraordinary Lens
I had to wait quite awhile for this lens. It was worth it. I am a recent convert to a Sony a7 r ii from Nikon. The transition is proving daunting but this lens makes it all worth while. And special thanks to Abt for being the only place able to obtain it!

If you're an event shooter with a Sony camera system, it's likely that the Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 Telephoto Zoom Lens ($1,999.99 direct) is a lens that is essential to your kit. It retains a maximum f/2.8 aperture throughout its zoom range, and is quite sharp.
Pros:
- Extremely sharp
- Constant f/2.8 aperture
- Includes tripod collar
Cons:
- Expensive
- Big and heavy
- Noticeable distortion

The 70-200mm f/2.8 lens is very popular, thanks to its speed and versatility, but is the Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 G worth spending your money on? The Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 G is available only for Sony DSLRs.

The Sony 70-200mm F2.8 G is without doubt an excellent lens. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's based on a 7-year old Minolta design - it's at least a match for the more recent third party options from Tamron and Sigma, and only just outperformed by Nikon's very latest (and pricey) 70-200mm F2.8...
Pros:
- Excellent image quality on full frame
- very good on APS-C
- Superb build quality
- Fast
- silent autofocus with manual override
- Well-placed AF stop buttons
Cons:
- A bit soft wide open at the telephoto end on APS-C
- No dust or moisture sealing (which we'd expect in a 'Pro' level lens
- Slightly suspect image quality at closest focus (very soft indeed at F2.8
- Extremely expensive compared to third party alternatives
