Hi ilgainis,

welcome to the Sony User Community Forum..

That set up will not work because the FE 70-200 F4 G (SEL70200G), like many camera lenses, does not have motor zoom capabilities, when a Sony lens does have motor zoom the lens name will contain a letter P (Power Zoom) such as the SELP28135G..

Hope this helps??
