About the Sony SEL2470Z Vario-Tessar T* FE 24-70mm f/4

Dave Bar

An ideal match for your compact Sony full-frame format E-mount camera

One of the big advantages of having a camera that uses Sony's E-mount system is the continued addition of premium lenses from Zeiss. This legendary manufacturer, in partnership with Sony, has introduced yet another "must have" lens optimized for full-frame cameras like the Sony A7 and A7R. This ultra-compact, mid-range zoom with its Carl Zeiss T* lens coatings, ED and aspherical glass elements, and built-in Optical SteadyShot® image stabilization is sure to be on a lot of photographer's wish lists.

One of the big advantages of having a camera that uses Sony's E-mount system is the continued addition of premium lenses from Zeiss. This legendary manufacturer, in partnership with Sony, has introduced yet another "must have" lens optimized for full-frame cameras like the Sony A7 and A7R. This ultra-compact, mid-range zoom with its Carl Zeiss T* lens coatings, ED and aspherical glass elements, and built-in Optical SteadyShot® image stabilization is sure to be on a lot of photographer's wish lists.

The lens's versatile 24-70mm medium-zoom range and f/4 maximum aperture will take you from getting the whole room in the shot to intimate portraits while gathering all the light you need in subdued settings. And even with an APS-C sensor digital camera, you'll have a very useful equivalent range of 36-105mm — perfect for everyday challenges. And speaking of challenges, this lens's rugged dust- and moisture-resistant design means you'll be ready to capture beautiful images even in tough environmental conditions.

Features

Optics: The Sony Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar T* (T-Star) FE 24-70mm F4 ZA OSS (SEL2470Z) midrange zoom lens is compatible with the Sony α interchangeable lens cameras with the E-mount. It cannot be used on a camera with the Sony A-mount. The lens has a focal length of 24-70mm with 35mm full frame cameras, and 36-105mm equivalent focal range on cameras with APS-C-sized image sensors. It comes with the ALC-SH130 lens hood, front and rear lens caps, and a lens storage pouch.

Carl Zeiss T* Coating: The SEL2470Z lens was developed jointly by Carl Zeiss and Sony, and is produced under the strict standards and quality assurance of Carl Zeiss. The Carl Zeiss T* (T-Star) coating virtually eliminates the lens flare, internal reflection, and light scattering that can occur at glass-to-air surfaces.

Optical SteadyShot (OSS): Equipped with Optical SteadyShot (OSS), the lens compensates for blur caused by camera shake for normal handheld photography. OSS also reduces the reliance on high ISO settings when shooting in dark environments, which greatly enhances the effectiveness of the Hand-held Twilight and Anti-Motion Blur shooting modes. Optical SteadyShot gives you a 4-stop shutter speed advantage when activated.

Focusing: The lens can be used in the auto-focus, direct manual focus, or manual focus modes. You can switch between focusing modes in the camera menu. In Direct Manual focus, you can fine-tune the focus by turning the focusing ring after initially auto-focusing. Manual focusing is performed with the focusing ring as well.

Dust/Moisture Resistant: While the SEL2470Z isn't waterproof, critical areas of the lens exterior have dust- and moisture-resistant seals to help ensure professional reliability in tough environments.

Lens Hood: The lens comes with the ALC-SH130 lens hood which helps prevent lens flare. When installed, the lens hood adds approximately 1.5" to the overall length of the lens. The hood can be stored on the lens by installing it backwards.
