Sony’s Most Versatile Lens
For over 5-years since the release, the 16-35mm F2.8 remained as one of the most popular zoom lenses for Sony uses. Now the Mark II version of this lens is here with corner to corner sharpness, a lighter design than ever before, and extra fast auto focus to capture every shot.
