Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS lens

Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 G Master OSS - lightweight super telephoto

The Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 G Master OSS is a lightweight (you read that right) large aperture super telephoto lens. Made for Sony E-bayonet cameras, the Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 G Master OSS is ideal for sports, wildlife and nature photographers. The fast 2.8 aperture offers stunning depth of field separation to separate your subject from the background and great low light capabilities. Three fluorite elements reduce chromatic aberrations and a single ED element improves directivity and image quality by reducing haze and other reflections in harsh conditions.

Weighing less than 2.9kg, the Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 G Master OSS is incredibly agile for a lens of its size. The weight of the lens is distributed more at the rear end so the balance with lightweight Sony cameras is smoother than anyone dared imagine. Featuring Sony's XD linear motorised autofocus system that tracks subjects quickly and quietly, even at fast shooting speeds, in addition, Optical Steady Shot and IBIS work together for massive good image stabilisation.

Video enthusiasts will appreciate the power focus functionality that brings smooth, steady focus to video. The magnesium alloy body of the Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 G Master OSS lens is weatherproof against sand, dust and moisture. No need to fear harsh conditions. A tripod collar rotates around the tube when needed so changing the orientation of the image on the tripod is easy.

This Super Telefoto fixed focal length glass is designed for cinema size sensors, but it also works perfectly well with APS-C size sensors, offering a 600mm cinema equivalent focal length. The fast 2.8 maximum aperture size offers a crazy depth of field control and allows you to work in very low light conditions.

The three fluorite elements reduce chromatic aberration, and colour accuracy and image quality are top-notch. The Nano AR coating reduces ”flare” effects in all its forms, so contrast and brightness are at the top level. The XD linear focus motor focuses super fast and quietly on fast-moving subjects. The rounded 11 leaf aperture makes for a bridge-like smooth bokeh effect,

The lens is compatible 1.4x and 2.0x with teleconverters.
