This week, Sony announced the FE 50-150mm F2 GM, a fast telephoto lens aimed at sports and wedding photographers. The company has made some big promises about its performance, saying that its theoretical sharpness at either end is comparable to that of modern primes.
We got to spend some time with the lens pre-launch, and took some sample images. We’ve processed them using Capture One, which lets us use the manufacturer-provided distortion correction profile.
Please do not reproduce any of these images on a website or any newsletter/magazine without prior permission (see our copyright page). We make the originals available for private users to download to their own machines for personal examination or printing; we do so in good faith, so please don’t abuse it.
Our DPREVIEW Tribute:
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview closed on 10 April 2023. This difficult decision was part of the annual operating plan review that parent company, Amazon, shared earlier this year.
Over the course of 25 years, DP Review built up a reputation as being one of the most informative places to go for information about that new camera or lens you’re after. DP Review began as an independent reviews site based in the UK in 1998, the brainchild of Philip and Joanna Askey, but it was eventually purchased by Amazon in 2007 and relocated over to Seattle in the USA in 2010.
Cheers DPReview – thanks for the great work and content that guided photographers, videographers and techno junkies the world over!
