A workhorse lens for events, sports, and portraiture, the Sony FE 70-200mm f/4 G OSS is a compact telephoto zoom featuring a constant f/4 maximum aperture, sophisticated G series optics, and useful AF and OSS. The smaller size, compared to an f/2.8 version, makes the lens a more portable option that is well-suited to all-day shoots and other situations where a more nimble, stabilized lens excels.

question
Is this lens fully compatible and able to shoot full frame (e.g., true 70-200mm) with the Sony alpha 7R body, which I just bought from B and H? It does say FE
The Sony FE 70-200mm f/4 is fully compatible with the a7R. It is a full frame lens, so can be used on any full frame or APS-C size sensor E-mount cameras.

question
Will this lens work on the alpha 58?
Hi, the Alpha 58 uses A-mount lenses, and the sony Fe 70-200 is an E-mount lens, so I believe you would need an adapter, which Sony sells. Also, the sensor on the A58 is an APSC sensor, as opposed to a full frame sensor, so this lens would actually be closer to a 100-300 focal length because of the smaller sensor in your camera.Sometimes, using an adapter makes some functions on the lens not work .The lens is excellent by the way, but quite large and heavy.I think your best bet is to talk to a Sony representative from the Sony site but I hope I was a bit helpful.I am positive you will need an adapter, these are usually around 300$

How this lens handle the Modern Sony AF??, "real time...". Thanks
It depends on a lot of variables, but the lens supports all modern focusing functions from the most recent cameras. It's an older lens, though, so its focusing motors aren't quite as quick and up-to-date as the latest 70-200mm lenses. All AF functions and modes will be supported but it won't be the fastest focusing lens from Sony.

question
I didn't see the angle of view listed in the specs! What is it please? I am trying to sort out the best choice of several lenses for the Sony A6000 I'm ordering soon. My current options I'm considering are : Sony E-mount 18 - 200mm f/3.5 - 6.3 B&H # SO1820035QSony E 55 - 210mm f/ 4.5 - 6.3 )SS ( SILVER ) B&H # SO5521045THIS one - that I'm affectionately nick naming BIG WHITEY The Sony 18 - 200mm f/3.5 - 6.3 PZ OSS ALPHA E - mount B&H # SO18200PZor the TAMRON 18-200 mm f/3.5 - 6.3 Di III VC Sony E Mount ( SILVER ) B&H # TA 1820035SB Cost is actually not a consideration in my situation. I have a Once in a Lifetime Opportunity here & I want to make the absolute MOST of it! I want a lens that will serve me - 1 ) As an ARTIST ; I am a Wildlife Artist & I want crisp / sharp / clear reference photos of my subjects . 2) I want to also make a few bucks on those reference Photos to make my equipment pay for itself & earn it's keep! 3) I want the BEST Glass -PERIOD
The angle of view on the Sony FE 70-200mm f/4.0 OSS lens is 34-12 on a full frame sensor, and 22-8 on an APS-C sensor camera such as the A6000. For wildlife photography, I think that this particular lens will out-perform any of the 18-200mm or 55-210mm lenses, as the 70-200 has a constant f/4 aperture as opposed to lenses with variable apertures. You will also have a better telephoto range with this lens, since it will effectively be a 105-300mm lens on a camera with an APS-C sensor. In terms of lenses which are dedicated to Sony E mount systems, this will be the best lens choice.
