## Description

The Rokinon 24-70mm F2.8 AF Zoom Lens for Sony E Mount is a high-performance standard zoom designed for full-frame Sony mirrorless cameras. Covering essential focal lengths from wide-angle to short telephoto, it is a powerful and flexible lens tailored for both photographers and filmmakers. Engineered with a bright constant F2.8 aperture, this lens excels in challenging lighting and allows for beautiful subject isolation and depth. Whether you’re capturing portraits, wide scenic shots, or dynamic events, it delivers clarity, contrast, and control in every frame. What sets this lens apart is its par-focal design, typically reserved for high-end cinema glass. This allows focus to remain locked on your subject while zooming, ensuring a sharp, consistent focal plane—especially valuable when recording video or during live events. The Linear Stepping Motor (LSM) autofocus system offers precise, near-silent operation, while manual override gives creators added versatility. Its optical performance is enhanced by a complex internal structure of 17 elements in 15 groups, including aspherical, hybrid, HR, and ED elements that reduce chromatic aberrations and distortion. The Ultra Multi-Coating (UMC) further improves light transmission and minimizes flare, helping you achieve natural colors and enhanced sharpness. For added functionality, a Custom Switch allows you to silently control aperture through the focus ring—perfect for filming in sensitive environments. With firmware updatable through the optional Rokinon Lens Station, you can tailor lens behavior to your workflow. Compact yet rugged, this lens includes weather sealing at 7 points for protection against the elements, allowing you to shoot confidently in unpredictable conditions. Whether you're creating cinematic footage or capturing stills, the Rokinon 24-70mm F2.8 AF Zoom Lens delivers high-quality results without compromise.

Review: Well metal built and great image - At first, had to research a lot so help me decide either if I should buy this lens or sabe a LOT more and get another brand, being this the cheapest 24-70 I found, but after spending too much time reading reviews and watching some videos I went for it, and there are no regrets! I think the image is clear, autofocus works very fast, looks great in the whole zoom range, the only thing rhat could be an issue is the weight, it’s around 2 pounds (1 kg) I don’t usually do long shoots so I can work with it very well, my gimbal (RS4) seems confortable with it and my camera body (a7iv). If the budget is an issue for you just go for it, keep in mind the weight and nothing more unless you’re obe of those guys who likes to pixel peep, I’m not so found this lens great!
Review: Perfect - Love it this lens work great for the budget

Love it this lens work great for the budget

### ⭐ Not good enought materials
*by I***A on November 4, 2025*

Very heavy. It fell from a 30cm/11inches distance and the mount broke. It almost broke my camera even. And the support doens't take responsability, when the exterior body is hard plastic but inside is a very cheap material
