The new announced Sony FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS lens is expected to start shipping in June 2016. According to the latest rumors from SR3, this new lens will cost over $4,200! This would make it a very expensive lens! The current Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II AF-S Nikkor Zoom Lens and Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens do cost about only half of the rumored GM price!
“I’ve just got an initial quote for our local supplier in Australia on the GM lenses including the 70-200 F2.8 as follows (All in AUD). I’m not sure if they are retail prices or might include a slight discount as they told us lenses are still around 4-5 weeks away in Australia and we would need to confirm pricing closer to when stock is available as they should be able to hopefully offer slight better pricing…
– 24-70 f2.8 GM – AU$3099
– 85mm f1.4 GM – AU$2899
– 70-200 f2.8 GM – AU$5999
Pricing on the 70-200 F2.8 seems rather crazy!”
The other two Sony GM lenses are now available for pre-order in most US stores
