Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM Lens Summary
The premium G Master FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM ultra wide angle zoom lens from Sony is the latest full-frame addition to their mirrorless E-mount lens range. Sporting a number of high quality optics renders the SEL1224GM lens ideal for high quality wide angle photography and video capture. The constant bright aperture is ideal for handheld shooting stills and video even in low light and works seamlessly with advanced Eye and Face Detect AF functionality. Four XD Linear (Extreme Dynamic) Motors deliver faster and more accurate focusing than conventional lenses for both photography and videography. 12-24mm ultra wide focal widths are suitable for a number of subjects which include landscape, night and astro photography, interior scenes as well as creative architectural photography.
Quality from the Sony FE 12-24mm GM is consistently high thanks to the inclusion of a number of advanced optical elements. Three XA (extreme aspherical) elements ensure outstanding resolution for cameras such as the a7R IV which packs 61 megapixels. One aspherical element, two super ED and three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements deliver high corner-to-corner resolving power. Flare and ghosting is controlled by Nano AR Coating II which effectively eliminates light anomalies and ensures high contrast, clear images. As expected with G Master quality, the FE 12-24mm lens is dust and moisture resistant allowing outdoor shooting to continue even if the weather goes south.

Our Verdict
Sony is renowned for their premium G Master Series full-frame lenses and the SEL1224GM FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM is a versatile addition for serious enthusiasts and professional photographers. This option is primarily aimed at both indoor and outdoor subjects which require sharp, high resolving detail, but also benefits from a circular 9-blade aperture which creates beautiful background bokeh defocus effects. Photographers who capture moving subjects will particularly benefit from four ultra fast linear focus motors which utilise renowned Eye, Face and subject AF detection.
Outdoor photographers and videographers will thrive on the ability to continue their work even during poor weather thanks to weather resistance as well as the bright constant f/2.8 aperture. This extends the capabilities of this model to capturing beautiful night, star and astro scenes with corner to corner high resolution. Quality is second to none with the addition of numerous advanced optical elements ensuring sharp, high contrast detail suitable for any full-frame Sony Alpha mirrorless cameras. The ultra wide angle zoom range makes this a highly desirable Sony landscape lens and photographers working in other fields will also be drawn to the high performance which this model delivers.
