The new Sony 70-200mm f/4 G II is an exciting smaller and lighter upgrade to its predecessor. In this video, professional photographer and YouTuber Miguel Quiles takes a closer look at the lens and all of its features, putting it to the test for both studio and outdoor portrait photography. “The fast autofocus performance and light, silent operation really makes this lens hard to beat.”

The lens offers macro capabilities over the entire zoom range with a minimum focusing distance of 3.5 inches on the wide end of the lens, to 7.5 inches on the telephoto lens and a 0.5X magnification. Because Quiles often likes to use macro for his portrait work, these capabilities greatly extend the use of the lens.

In addition to the macro capabilities, the Sony 70-200mm f/4 G II has four Extreme Dynamic Linear Motors to give you high speed autofocus tracking that’s ultra quiet and accurate. “If you use the APS-C crop on your camera, this means you could get up to 600mm focal length using that 2.0x converter. All of those focal lengths covered in a small converter and lens might just be the perfect combination for your wildlife and sports photography shots.”
