Sony FE 100-400mm f/4.5 GM OSS Lens (Sony E-Mount)
Pro-Grade Super-Telephoto Zoom
Built for professionals who demand reach and reliability, this versatile 100–400mm zoom is ideal for wildlife, birding, sports, and journalism. Its refined design incorporates internal zoom and focusing for better balance and handling, while the constant f/4.5 aperture ensures consistent performance across the entire range. Compact enough for handheld use yet powerful enough for distant subjects, it delivers precision and speed in every shot.
G Master Optical Excellence
As part of Sony’s elite G Master lineup, this lens is engineered for exceptional sharpness, smooth bokeh, and overall optical performance. Its constant f/4.5 aperture provides improved brightness at longer focal lengths compared to variable-aperture designs, while maintaining a portable form factor.
A sophisticated optical construction—including XA, Super ED, and ED elements—ensures crisp detail and natural rendering, even in challenging lighting or busy backgrounds. Nano AR Coating II minimizes flare and ghosting, producing rich contrast and accurate color. A floating focus system maintains consistent sharpness from infinity down to a close 2.1' focusing distance, and the 11-blade diaphragm delivers pleasing, circular bokeh.
Fast, Accurate AF & Reliable Stabilization
Designed for speed and precision, the lens features four XD linear motors that provide fast, quiet, and responsive autofocus—ideal for both stills and video. AF performance is significantly improved over previous models, with faster acquisition and more accurate tracking of moving subjects.
Internal focusing and zoom mechanisms keep the lens length stable, improving balance for handheld shooting and gimbal use. Optical SteadyShot stabilization helps reduce camera shake, with multiple modes tailored for standard shooting, panning, and tracking fast-moving subjects.
Enhanced Control & Close-Up Capability
With a minimum focusing distance of just 2.1' and a maximum magnification of 0.25x, the lens is also capable of capturing detailed close-ups. A manual aperture ring offers direct, tactile control and can be de-clicked for smooth, silent adjustments during video recording. Reduced focus breathing and compatibility with in-camera breathing compensation further enhance video performance.
Durable, Functional Design
Despite its long reach, the lens remains well-balanced and manageable, weighing around 4 lb with a rear-weighted design for comfortable handheld use. It supports both rear drop-in filters and front screw-in filters, adding flexibility for different shooting setups.
Built for demanding environments, the lens features a dust- and moisture-resistant construction, along with a fluorine-coated front element to repel dirt and water. Additional controls include multiple focus hold buttons, a focus mode switch, and a customizable function ring for quick adjustments. A removable tripod collar and a locking lens hood with a filter window further enhance usability in the field.
Expandable Reach with Teleconverters
Compatible with Sony’s optional 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverters, this lens can extend its reach up to 800mm while maintaining autofocus and auto-exposure capabilities—making it even more versatile for capturing distant subjects.
Overall, the Sony FE 100–400mm f/4.5 GM OSS combines reach, speed, and premium optics in a durable, well-balanced design—perfect for professionals who need uncompromising telephoto performance.
