Will the Sony FE 24-70mm F2.8 GM II (SEL2470GM2) work with the Sony Alpha 9 III (ILCE-9M3)?
Yes. Both use Sony E-mount (FE full-frame and APS-C E lenses).
Both records are reviewed against the manufacturers' sources; sources last checked 2026-10-14. Informational only: confirm with the manufacturer before buying.
Why
- ✓ Both use Sony E-mount (FE full-frame and APS-C E lenses).
Good to know
- APS-C "E" lenses (e.g. E 18-135mm, SEL18135) mount on full-frame bodies but the camera records an APS-C crop, so you lose resolution and field of view.
- FE (full-frame) lenses work on APS-C bodies with a ~1.5x narrower field of view.
- Third-party lenses (Sigma, Tamron) are sold in separate mount versions; buy the Sony E-mount version.
