Description
The Sony FE 24–70 mm f/2.8 GM II Lens Kit rental offers a high-performance standard zoom in a lighter, more compact form. Designed for full-frame Sony E-mount systems, this GM II version is 18 % smaller and 22 % lighter than its predecessor, weighing just ~695 g—ideal for run-and-gun, travel, and gimbal use.
Optical improvements include floating focus groups, advanced lens coatings, and three aspherical, two XA, and two Super-ED elements for superior sharpness, reduced distortion, and clean bokeh. The lens includes an 11-blade circular diaphragm and a new iris lock switch to prevent accidental changes.
Autofocus is powered by four XD Linear motors driving front and rear floating focus groups—offering faster, quieter, and more accurate performance for both stills and video. Maximum magnification reaches 0.32× with a close-focus limit of 0.38 m, enabling tight close-ups.
The lens lacks optical stabilization, relying on in-body image stabilization (IBIS), which contributes to its smaller size. Design features include a floating focus mechanism, internal focus, AF/MF switch, focus-hold button, and a filter hood with a built-in adjustment window. Construction is weather-sealed with a fluorine-coated front element.
The rental kit from 247kit.tv includes the lens, petal hood (with filter window), front/rear caps, and a padded case—ready for use in demanding production settings.
