The Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS is a long-reach telephoto zoom lens, designed for wildlife, nature, and sports photography. This lens offers a flexible focal length range of 200-600mm, providing a 300-900mm equivalent on APS-C cameras. Its f/5.6-6.3 maximum aperture range helps to minimize its size and weight while maintaining excellent image quality. As part of Sony’s G Series, the lens delivers impressive optical performance, fast autofocus, and intuitive handling, making it ideal for a variety of applications.
Equipped with Optical SteadyShot (OSS), the lens helps to reduce the effects of camera shake, allowing for sharper handheld shooting, even at slower shutter speeds. The OSS system features three modes, including panning and viewfinder stabilization priority settings, and it can be paired with select Sony camera models’ sensor-shift image stabilization for optimal control over blur. The lens also includes an internal zoom design, ensuring it remains compact during zooming for improved handling and balance.
Optically, the FE 200-600mm lens incorporates five extra-low dispersion (ED) elements to control chromatic aberrations, and one aspherical element to minimize distortion, ensuring clear, high-quality images. A Nano AR Coating has been applied to reduce flare and ghosting, enhancing contrast and color fidelity even in challenging lighting. The lens also offers pleasing bokeh, thanks to a rounded 11-blade diaphragm.
For fast and precise focusing, the lens uses a Direct Drive Super Sonic wave Motor (DDSSM), ensuring quiet and accurate autofocus for both stills and video. The lens also features three customizable focus hold buttons, a focus range limiter, and a minimum focusing distance of 7.9 feet.
Built for durability, the lens is weather-sealed and features a fluorine-coated front element to protect against dust and smudges. The removable rotating tripod mount allows for flexible mounting options.
