One Hour. One Expert. The Right Gear.
Photography in Good Company
Travel-light telephoto—fast, flexible, and ready for anything.
If you want the look and speed of a classic 70–200 f/2.8 without the heft, this compact 70–180 nails it. The constant f/2.8 aperture gives you low-light confidence and creamy separation; the range covers portraits, events, sports on the sidelines, even detail-rich close-ups. It balances beautifully on any Z body and stays quick and quiet for both stills and video.
What you’ll notice in use
-
Constant f/2.8 speed: Clean, confident shutter speeds and depth control across the whole zoom range.
-
Packs small, carries easy: ~795 g and ~83.5 × 151 mm with a handy 67 mm filter thread—great for all-day shoots and travel.
-
Close-up capability: Focus to 0.27 m at 70mm and 0.85 m at 180mm; up to 0.48× magnification for macro-style detail.
-
Even more reach when you need it: Works with Z TC-1.4x and TC-2.0x teleconverters—stretching to 98–252mm or 140–360mm. With the 2.0x, max magnification approaches life-size (0.96×).
-
Smooth, quiet focus: Stepping-motor AF with an internal focusing, multi-focusing design—ideal for video and candid stills.
-
Stabilization synergy: Pair with Z bodies that have in-body VR for steadier handhelds in low light.
Good to know
-
Optical design: 19 elements in 14 groups (5 ED, 1 Super ED, 3 aspherical); 9-blade rounded diaphragm.
-
Angle of view (FX): 34°20′–13°40′.
-
In the box: HB-113 hood, LC-67B front cap, LF-N1 rear cap, CL-C2 soft case.
Who it’s for
Photographers and filmmakers who want f/2.8 telephoto flexibility in a lighter, more affordable package—sports, portrait and wedding shooters, travel and event storytellers, and Z-series video creators who value speed, reach, and portability.
