Sony 70-400mm f/4-5.6 G SSM II Lens Review

Sony 70-400mm f/4-5.6 G SSM II Verdict

This is an excellent lens, that performs well, and is priced well enough to be considered good value for money too. The build quality is very good, although it is a little strange that it is not weather sealed, as you may expect lenses pitched at this level to be. Even so, this should prove to be a very popular lens, as its predecessor was thanks to the improved autofocus speed and anti-reflective coatings, which are both welcome improvements.
