The new Sony “G Master” series lenses are expected to be “Pro” high-end E-mount lenses similar to the Sigma’s Art Series premium-grade line. The price tag of the upcoming Sony “G Master” series sure will be expensive.

The first in the line up expected is Sony FE 24-70mm /f2.8 G lens comes with a product number of “SEL247028G” which means the lens will have a focal length between 24-70mm with a maximum aperture of f/2.8 throughout the range. The lens will offer a high image quality, thanks to its G-designation.

The Sony FE 24-70mm /f2.8 G lens which is designed for FE-mount mirrorless cameras with full-frame image sensors will sure provide a nice bokeh with its large aperture. This would be good for low-light and indoor photography.

Sony FE-mount users currently has the f/4 version of this rumored model which is on sale for $1,200. Check Zeiss 24-70mm f/4 Vario-Tessar T* OSS lens at Amazon.

Sony “G Master” Series Expectations

It is unclear what the other G Master fast zooms would be but we can expect the highly anticipated 16-35mm f/2.8 and 70-200mm f/2.8 models for the lineup.
