Sony FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS II Lens on Rent – Gadget Rental India (GRI), Chandigarh Tricity

The Sony FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS II is Sony’s flagship fast telephoto zoom and a major upgrade over the first-generation 70-200mm G Master. It delivers outstanding resolution across the frame, smooth G Master bokeh, and significantly improved autofocus performance, while being around 30% lighter than the previous model. Covering the classic 70–200mm range with a constant f/2.8 aperture, it is a workhorse lens for hybrid creators shooting weddings, documentaries, corporate films, sports, and portraits on Sony Alpha bodies in and around Chandigarh.​

Inside, the optical design features 17 elements in 14 groups, including XA (extreme aspherical), aspherical, ED, and Super ED glass to control aberrations and maintain contrast and sharpness even at f/2.8. The 11-blade circular diaphragm helps create round, pleasing out-of-focus areas, especially at 200mm, giving your subject separation a very polished, high-end look.​

Autofocus, stabilisation and handling

Autofocus is driven by four XD linear motors, delivering up to four times faster AF performance compared to the previous generation, with especially strong tracking when shooting continuous bursts and video. The focusing system is internal, supports full-time manual override, and is quiet enough for gimbal and on-camera audio workflows, which is critical for wedding and event shooters.​

Optical SteadyShot (OSS) stabilisation works together with in-body stabilisation on compatible Sony cameras to help maintain sharp results when handholding at slower shutter speeds. The GM2 version is notably lighter at approximately 1,045g and maintains a compact 88 x 200mm barrel, making it easier to carry for long wedding days or outdoor events without excessive fatigue. Weather-sealed construction helps keep dust and moisture at bay for demanding shoots around outdoor venues in the Chandigarh Tricity region.​

Focusing, close-up ability and controls

The lens focuses as close as about 0.4m at the wide end and 0.82m at the long end, giving a maximum magnification of approximately 0.3x for tight detail shots like rings, décor, and product-style frames without changing lenses. Multiple focus hold buttons around the barrel, an AF/MF switch, focus range limiter, OSS mode selector, and aperture ring with clickable or de-clicked operation provide a cinema-friendly control layout.​

A removable tripod collar is included for better balance on monopods and tripods, and the lens uses a 77mm front filter size, common across many professional Sony and third-party lenses.​
