Reach Beyond Limits – Capture the Unattainable
Elevate your photography to extraordinary distances with the Sony FE 400-800mm f/6.3-8.0 G OSS Lens. Designed for photographers who demand precision and power, this super-telephoto zoom lens delivers remarkable reach, bringing distant subjects closer with incredible clarity. Whether you're tracking elusive wildlife, freezing the intensity of sports action, or composing cinematic landscapes with stunning telephoto compression, this lens is engineered to perform.
Seamless Zooming for Unmatched Stability
Designed with an internal zoom mechanism, the FE 400-800mm maintains a balanced center of gravity throughout its entire zoom range. This feature ensures smooth handling, making handheld shooting more stable while eliminating lens extension that could impact movement. Its precisely engineered zoom ring allows for effortless adjustments, so you can reframe quickly without breaking focus.
Exquisite Optics for Uncompromising Image Quality
Super-telephoto photography demands absolute sharpness, and this lens delivers with six Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements that minimize chromatic aberrations and enhance contrast. An advanced optical design reduces flare and ghosting, ensuring crisp, high-contrast images even in challenging lighting conditions. The 11-blade circular aperture adds artistic depth, creating smooth, natural bokeh that beautifully isolates subjects from their background.
Precision Autofocus That Keeps Up
Fast-moving subjects require responsive and accurate focusing. Sony’s advanced linear motor technology powers the autofocus system, locking onto subjects with incredible speed and precision. Paired with the Sony α9 III’s 120 fps continuous shooting, this lens is built to track fleeting moments without hesitation, even while zooming. A focus-range limiter further refines performance, ensuring optimal tracking at varying distances.
Versatile for Close-Ups and Extreme Telephoto
Despite its super-telephoto reach, the FE 400-800mm f/6.3-8.0 G OSS excels at close-up photography, offering a minimum focusing distance of just 1.7 meters (5.58 ft). With a maximum magnification of 0.23x, this lens provides exceptional flexibility, allowing you to capture intricate details of smaller subjects while maintaining beautiful background separation.
Engineered for Stability – Handheld or Tripod
Sony’s Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization makes handheld shooting more reliable, compensating for camera shake to ensure crisp results. Choose from specialized stabilization modes, including MODE 2 for panning and MODE 3 for tracking fast-moving subjects. When mounted on a tripod, the durable footplate with 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 screw sockets provides rock-solid support and quick rotation between horizontal and vertical orientations.
Rugged Design for Real-World Challenges
Built to thrive in demanding environments, this lens features weather-resistant sealing that guards against dust and moisture. A fluorine-coated front element repels dirt, oil, and water, making maintenance effortless. The redesigned lens hood incorporates a locking mechanism for secure attachment and a filter window for easy adjustments.
