Sony 70-200 f2.8 GM II - A Landscape Photographer's Perspective

In this video I take the brand new Sony 70-200 f2.8 GM OSS II out for some image quality testing and chase down some pretty stunning sunset conditions for a bit of landscape photography from South Perth.

Overall I was extremely impressed with the lens, the optical quality is excellent, it handles very well and it's certainly a huge step up from the Mark I. I'm looking forward to adding it to my kit soon!

Big thanks to Camera Electronic for loaning me this lens to test out - check them out here:
