Sony FE 50-150mm f/2 GM Lens

The FE 50-150mm f/2 GM Lens from Sony stands out for its incredible speed and versatility. Designed with a consistent maximum aperture of f/2, this normal-to-short-telephoto zoom is perfect for shooting portraits, weddings, events, indoor settings, and close-range sports. Photographers and videographers can also benefit from using this lens as a replacement for multiple prime lenses, without compromising on speed.

G Master Performance

The Sony FE 50-150mm f/2 GM Lens features the G Master designation, indicating its top-tier performance in terms of sharpness, bokeh, speed, and overall quality. It aims to replace multiple prime lenses with its versatile range. Its constant f/2 aperture is one stop faster than f/2.8 lenses, making it ideal for low-light situations and offering greater control over depth of field and subject-background separation. The lens incorporates XA, Super ED, aspherical, and ED elements for exceptional sharpness and smooth rendering, suitable for a wide range of subjects such as architecture, landscapes, portraits, and weddings. Additionally, the Nano AR Coating II minimizes flare and enhances contrast and color reproduction in various lighting conditions. With a floating focus design, this lens maintains high image quality throughout the focusing range, delivering sharpness from infinity to the 40cm minimum focusing distance. The rounded 11-blade diaphragm creates a smooth and circular bokeh.

Designed for Hybrid Shooters

Designed for both photography and filmmaking, the 50-150mm f/2 GM lens boasts a wide range of features to enhance its hybrid functionality. Four XD linear motors provide fast, quiet, and smooth autofocus performance, compatible with continuous shooting speeds of up to 120 fps and high-speed video recording at 240 fps. The internal focusing and zoom design maintains the lens length and center of gravity, making it easier to use on a gimbal or tripod. The lens also supports Breathing Compensation function to eliminate angle of view shifts, and the manual aperture ring and zoom smoothness can be adjusted for precision and control. Weighing in at 1340g, the lens is well-balanced and comfortable for handheld use, with much of its weight concentrated at the rear.

Portable and Nimble Design

Despite its large maximum aperture and versatile range, this 50-150mm f/2 lens maintains a portable, relatively lightweight design perfect for handheld shooting and daily use. At 200mm long and weighing approximately 1340g, it is comparable in size to the FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II but boasts twice the brightness. The manual aperture ring allows for precise exposure control and can be de-clicked for smooth, silent iris pulls or locked in the 'A' position for aperture switching on the camera. With two programmable focus hold buttons and a focus mode switch, intuitive focus control is at your fingertips. The zoom smoothness switch allows for quick changes between Smooth and Tight zoom ring torque. This lens features a hybrid construction of metal and plastic, providing both durability and a lightweight design. It is also dust- and moisture-resistant with rubber gaskets at each seam and a rubber ring sealing the lens mount, ensuring usability in inclement weather.
