Sony FE 50-150mm F2 GM: World’s First 150mm Telephoto Zoom Lens with F2 Aperture

Sony has announced the launch of the FE 50-150mm F2 GM, the world’s first telephoto zoom lens to feature a maximum focal length of 150mm paired with a constant F2 aperture. Expanding the capabilities of the G Master™ series, this versatile new lens is designed to deliver prime-level image quality, stunning bokeh, and professional-level performance — all in a compact package.

Uncompromised Image Quality with Prime-Like Resolution
The FE 50-150mm F2 GM stands out with its optical design, incorporating two XA (extreme aspherical), two Super ED, and three ED elements to reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations. The result is sharp, high-contrast images throughout the entire zoom range — ideal for demanding photographers shooting portraits, events, or dynamic scenes.

Its floating focus system ensures a minimum focusing distance of 0.4m at the wide end, with 0.20x magnification, offering precise performance even for close-up work.

Beautiful Bokeh and Cinematic Quality
With a wide and constant F2 aperture, the lens produces beautifully smooth background separation, perfect for portraits and weddings. The 11-blade circular diaphragm further enhances Sony’s signature G Master bokeh.

For video professionals, the lens delivers cinematic results with clarity and depth. The Nano AR Coating II reduces ghosting and flare, maintaining vivid detail even in backlit conditions.

Compact Design and Internal Zoom for Portability
Despite its impressive specs, the FE 50-150mm F2 GM is compact and lightweight, measuring about 200mm in length and weighing approximately 1,340g. Its internal zoom mechanism ensures the lens remains the same length throughout the zoom range, making it perfect for gimbal-mounted shooting and enhancing balance during handheld use.

Fast, Precise Autofocus for Still and Video
Powered by four XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors, the lens delivers lightning-fast and whisper-quiet autofocus, ideal for both photography and video. When paired with the Sony Alpha 9 III, it supports continuous shooting at up to 120fps with full AF/AE tracking, making it a powerful tool for indoor sports, action, and event photography.

Built for Filmmakers
Designed with creators in mind, the lens minimizes focus breathing and supports Sony’s Breathing Compensation feature on compatible Alpha cameras. Linear Response MF ensures intuitive and precise manual focusing, while internal zoom contributes to a stable shooting experience during zoom transitions.

Professional-Grade Durability
The FE 50-150mm F2 GM is built to withstand tough environments with a dust- and moisture-resistant construction. A fluorine coating on the front element repels fingerprints, dust, water, and oil, ensuring easy maintenance and reliability on the go.

Sony’s FE 50-150mm F2 GM redefines versatility for professional photographers and filmmakers, combining exceptional resolution, stunning bokeh, and cinematic performance — all in one innovative lens.
