For handheld video work, that weight difference is not a specification point. It is the difference between a take you hold for ninety seconds and one you abandon at forty. The G2 version adds VC — Vibration Compensation — to the optical formula, and on a Sony body with sensor-based IBIS (A7 IV, A7R V, ZV-E1), the combined stabilization produces five to six stops of effective compensation at the telephoto end.
