Sony FE Lens 400mm F2.8 G Master

The Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS is an ultra-lightweight super-telephoto prime lens designed for professional sports and wildlife photography. It delivers exceptional sharpness, fast autofocus performance, and beautiful background blur with a bright f/2.8 aperture in a weather-sealed G Master construction.

The Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS is a flagship G Master super-telephoto lens engineered for demanding professional photography, particularly in sports, wildlife, and action environments. Despite its powerful 400mm reach and large f/2.8 aperture, it is one of the lightest lenses in its class at approximately 2.9 kg, making it highly usable for handheld or monopod shooting.

Its optical design consists of 23 elements in 17 groups, including fluorite and ED glass elements that reduce chromatic aberration and ensure exceptional sharpness and clarity across the entire frame. Sony’s Nano AR coating further suppresses flare and ghosting, even in challenging backlit conditions.

The lens features a fast and highly accurate autofocus system powered by dual XD (Extreme Dynamic) linear motors, enabling precise tracking of fast-moving subjects. This makes it especially effective for capturing athletes in motion or unpredictable wildlife subjects. The 11-blade circular aperture produces smooth, natural background blur, enhancing subject separation and overall image quality.

Built with professional durability in mind, the lens includes full weather sealing for protection against dust and moisture. It is also optimized for balance, reducing front-heavy weight distribution for improved handling during long shooting sessions.

The lens supports teleconverters (1.4x and 2.0x), extending its reach while maintaining strong autofocus performance, making it a highly flexible tool for extreme telephoto photography.
