The Sony FE 24-70mm f2.8 GM II Dubai (SEL2470GM2) is the world’s lightest constant f2.8 full-frame standard zoom — 22% lighter and 18% smaller than its predecessor, with four XD Linear AF motors and Nano AR Coating II for a constant f2.8 [فتحة ثابتة] performance that rivals primes. Unlike grey market units sold without UAE service support, every Sony FE 24-70mm f2.8 GM II at CamCity comes with a verified Sony UAE warranty and full authorised dealer backing.

The Sony FE 24-70mm f2.8 GM II Dubai retails at AED 6,690 at CamCity — and if you are evaluating this against the grey market units circulating across UAE social media groups, read this first. Grey market versions of this lens arrive without Sony UAE registration, meaning no firmware updates via Sony’s authorised service network and no 1-to-1 exchange if the lens develops a fault within the warranty period.
Key Features for Dubai Photographers and Videographers
22% Lighter and 18% Smaller Than the GM I — Without Compromising Aperture
The biggest upgrade over the original 24-70mm GM is not optical — it is physical. The GM II drops from 886g to 695g, making it genuinely comfortable on a Sony a7 V or a7C II for full-day shoots across Dubai wedding venues, DIFC corporate events, or desert landscapes at golden hour. Four XD Linear AF motors replace the previous Direct Drive SSM, delivering near-silent, near-instantaneous focus that the original could not match for video work.
G Master Optics That Rival the Best Primes
Two XA (extreme aspherical) elements, two ED glass elements, and two Super ED glass elements control aberrations across the entire 24–70mm zoom range. The result is corner-to-corner sharpness at f2.8 that eliminates the usual trade-off between zoom convenience and prime image quality. The 11-blade circular diaphragm produces G Master bokeh [بوكيه ناعم] across the full zoom range — consistent from 24mm portraits to 70mm compressed backgrounds at DIFC architecture shoots.
Video-First Design With Breathing Compensation Support
The GM II was redesigned from the ground up for hybrid shooters. Focus breathing is dramatically reduced compared to the original, and the lens supports Sony’s breathing compensation function on compatible bodies including the a7 V, a7C II, and FX30. The aperture de-click switch allows smooth iris pulls for cinema-style work, and the zoom smoothness selector lets you dial in the exact zoom tension for gimbal or handheld video work.
Important: Breathing compensation requires a compatible Sony body. If you are unsure whether your camera body supports this function, message us on WhatsApp before purchasing and we will confirm compatibility in under 5 minutes.
Who Should Buy the Sony FE 24-70mm f2.8 GM II in the UAE
Dubai wedding and event photographers — the constant f2.8 across the full zoom range means no re-exposing when you shift from wide ceremony coverage at 24mm to compressed portrait shots at 70mm. The weather-sealed construction handles outdoor Dubai events in summer humidity without hesitation.
Hybrid video shooters — the breathing compensation support and declickable aperture ring make this the first 24-70mm zoom that genuinely belongs on a cinema-oriented setup rather than just a photography kit.
Professionals upgrading from the GM I — if you are shooting the original SEL2470GM and finding it heavy on a gimbal or fatiguing on long event days, the 191g weight reduction is the upgrade reason. The optical performance at the edges is also measurably improved in the GM II.

See What Dubai's Top Pros Say About Their Camcity Experience
"Spectacular service and top notch staff! Fairly priced too! I serviced my Fujifilm camera here and they did an amazing job. Totally recommend visiting this shop. Public paid Parking was available too."

"I recently took my Canon EOS 650D to Cam to fix a problem. Drooped it off. 2 hrs later the technician calls and says: All fixed. Dust on the turn-on switch. Minimal charge. I cannt recommend Cam City enough. Highly professional. Fast. Cost effective. As they say on their web-site. If you take the camera to the retail store, they will simply send it to a 3rd party technician. Always better to go to the source and deal with the guys who do the fixing. 5 stars."
