distinguished pedigree from the original Minolta
®
lens line,
with industry-leading Sony design and quality assurance
technology added to push their performance to the forefront
of twenty-first century photography. G Lenses impart a visual
elegance to every aspect of the images they produce:
extraordinary presence at in-focus areas, smoothly dissolving
to luscious out-of-focus rendering that can provide a beautiful
foundation for captivating photographic art. Their handling is
extraordinary too, with intimate operation and response that
seamlessly connect the process of taking photographs to the
photographer’s imagination.

Telephoto zoom
70–200mm F2.8 G SAL70200G
The range from 70 to 200 millimeters is where much of the telephoto action
occurs. The ability to cover that range with a constant F2.8 aperture affords
some significant photographic advantages, and the outstanding clarity and
contrast offered by the SAL70200G multiplies those advantages many times
over. Although the large F2.8 maximum aperture does make it easier to
create beautifully defocused backgrounds, there are important advantages
for shooting moving subjects as well. Larger apertures—often referred to as
“fast” as well as “bright”—allow you to use faster shutter speeds to achieve
equivalent exposure, making it possible to capture motion that might end
up as a blur with a slower lens. The SAL70200G does it all with characteristic
G Lens refinement and class.
