Introducing the Sony FE 600mm f/4 GM OSS
The Sony FE 600mm f/4 GM OSS is a telephoto lens that boasts fast, accurate and stable autofocus, as well as the exceptional resolution of a G Master. Light for its size, this telephoto lens is ideal for sports, news, wildlife and nature photography. Its F4 aperture and eleven-blade circular diaphragm offer excellent depth-of-field control to isolate subjects, while optimizing performance for low-light shooting situations. Three fluorite elements and an XA (extreme aspherical) element reduce chromatic aberration and color bleeding, while two ED (ultra-low dispersion) elements and a Nano AR lens coating further enhance performance and image quality by reducing flare, ghosting and spherical aberration. The front element is protected by a fluorite coating that helps combat smudges and dirt.
Weighing just over 3kg, this lens is incredibly portable for its size. The weight of the lens is also redistributed towards the rear to make it less front-heavy, making it easier to track subjects and pan when shooting hand-held or with a monopod. Complementing this, Sony's XD (Extreme Dynamic) linear motor autofocus system, driven by two motors, enables fast and silent tracking of subjects in the frame, even when shooting at high speeds. What's more, SteadyShot optical stabilization can be combined with camera stabilization for 5-axis stabilization.
Videographers will also be delighted to discover the Power Focus feature, which ensures uniform focus when shooting videos.
The magnesium alloy body of this lens is also resistant to dust and humidity, for protection when shooting in adverse conditions.
