Sharp, Speedy and Reliable Sony FE 70–200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II

Weddings are full of mesmerising moments and to capture these unforgettable memories, we need that ‘magic lens’. And that is exactly why I was, and continue to be, enamoured with the optically brilliant, nimble, lightweight and yet, rugged, Sony FE 70–200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II. As a wedding photographer, I believe in capturing raw emotions in natural light, and Sony has taken me a long way in doing just that, with its innovative cameras and excellent lenses.

Prior to using this particular lens, I had always avoided 70-200mm lenses as they tend to be bulky and heavy, and slowed me down. But Sony changed the game for me. Weighing only a kilogram, Sony’s 70-200mm is extremely light and easy to handle. In fact, I comfortably and regularly use it with my gimbals, for videos as well!
