This 24-70mm f/2.8 AF Zoom Lens for Sony E from Samyang delivers a wide-angle to short-telephoto angle of view and a bright maximum aperture throughout the entire zoom range. It can be used for diverse photos such as landscapes, portraits, and snaps. In particular, the optimum resolution is achieved through the optical design of 17 elements in 14 groups (2 ASP, 1 H-ASP, 3 HR, and 3 ED). The bright aperture offers a beautifully blurred background. The 9-blade circular aperture contributes natural-looking bokeh and the beautiful starburst effect. The minimum focusing distance is just 13.8", ideal for images such as food on tables or portraits with exaggerated features. The lens features weather sealing at seven spots to protect it from light dust, rain, and snow and provide the ability to capture stunning images in less than perfect conditions. The Custom Switch makes it easy to select functions including Aperture Control Mode MF Mode. A linear stepping motor allows a larger and heavier focus lens group to be controlled quietly and precisely.

Parfocal
This function maintains the focus on the subject when zooming in/out. It is equipped with a function optimized for video shooting mounted on cine zoom lenses.
Cinematic Video AF
As the AF speed is properly controlled during video recording, wobbling is reduced and stable video recording is possible.
Linear MF Focus Control
Provides convenience to video shooters by realizing the torque of the focus ring as closely as possible to that of a manual video lens when shooting video in manual mode.

Samyang 24-70mm f/2.8 AF Reviews
Good optics, heavy weight
By Carl
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2023-02-24
It's 2023, there's no such thing as a bad lens/camera. The optics are good for professionals or hobbyists. The issue is the size and weight especially compared to its direct competitor the Tamron 28-75 (either generation). This lens feels robust and well made but is comparable in weight to a sigma 105mm f1.4. Fine for a portrait shoot but not suitable, at least to me, for a travel or walk around lens. Recommendation, go with a Tamron 28-75

A give this lens a try after seeing some reviewers compare this to the Sigma. I used it on the A7RV and found I couldn't get a sharp photo out of it. This lens is definitely ot up to par with the Sigma or Tamron. Will be returning.

Wil this lens autofocus be controlled by Sony FS5 ...
Wil this lens autofocus be controlled by Sony FS5 and FS7?
The autofocus works on current Sony models in video, such as the Sony A7S III, FX3 and FX6. Unfortunately, we were not able to test this lens on the FS5 or FS7 as they are discontinued models.
