  • Type

    Super Telephoto

    Super telephoto lenses have optics that make things appear closer than they actually are, allowing for photography from a great distance. They are typically used for wildlife photography, sports events, and other subjects that cannot be approached by the photographer. Their focal length starts at 300mm for full frame, 180mm for crop frame, and 600mm for medium format.

  • Mount

    The type of mount that the camera body must have in order for the lens to be fully functional when attached to it.

    2. Some lenses can be used with older mounts from the same manufacturer, sacrificing certain functions (e.g. autofocus), or even with mounts from other manufacturers using an adapter.

  • Item

    Lenses with variable optical (zoom) that remain equally bright (same maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance range they offer. Usually significantly more expensive than their variable aperture counterparts.

    Variable Aperture Zoom

    Lenses with variable optics (zoom) that do not remain equally bright (different maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance they offer. Usually significantly cheaper than their equivalent fixed aperture counterparts.

  • Sensor Type

    Full Frame

    Photographic lenses designed for use on full frame sensor cameras. A full frame lens can also be used on a crop frame sensor camera, but with its focal length adjusted according to the corresponding crop factor.

    For example, a full frame lens with a focal length of 50mm (standard) on a camera body with a crop factor of 1.6 will function with a perspective as if it were an 80mm lens (telephoto).

    The reverse does not work as the optics of a crop frame lens are not sufficient to cover an entire full frame sensor, resulting in the edges of the frame being black (severe vignetting).

  • Maximum Aperture (f)

    Opening the diaphragm determines the amount of light received by the camera and affects the depth of field.
    2. The most open aperture of a lens is called the maximum. The more open the aperture (smaller f-number), the shallower the depth of field.

Description

Description

The Sony FE 100-400mm F5.6-8 OSS camera lens is a variable-aperture super-telephoto zoom lens for cameras with a Sony E mount and a full-frame sensor. The two ED elements and two aspherical elements reduce chromatic aberrations and other optical distortions, while the 9-blade circular aperture helps create smooth bokeh. Autofocus is fast, quiet, and highly accurate, while Super SteadyShot optical image stabilization supports telephoto shooting.

Magnification reaches up to 0.41x, and the minimum focusing distance is 0.86 m, making it suitable for close-ups of subjects such as flowers and insects. The lens features a focus hold button, focus mode and focus range limiter switches, and a zoom lock. Its construction is designed to resist dust and moisture.

  • Use: Wildlife and sports
  • Resistance: Dust and moisture resistant
  • Controls: Focus hold button, focus mode and focus range limiter switches, zoom lock

Focal Range 100–400mm, Extendable up to 800mm

The wide 100-400mm focal length range easily covers distant subjects that are difficult to reach.
It lets photographers switch instantly from medium shots to tight action frames.
The variable f/5.6-8 aperture keeps the overall size particularly compact.
At the same time, it provides sufficient brightness for most outdoor shooting conditions.
It is fully compatible with the Sony FE 1.4x and FE 2x teleconverters.
With the 2x teleconverter, the maximum focal length reaches 800mm for exceptional telephoto reach.

Optical Design with ED Elements and 9-Blade Bokeh

The advanced optical design incorporates two high-purity Extra-low Dispersion (ED) elements.
It also includes two aspherical optical elements that effectively correct geometric imperfections.
This combination dramatically reduces chromatic aberrations and unwanted color fringing.
It delivers outstanding edge-to-edge sharpness across the entire zoom range.
The aperture features 9 rounded blades for even light distribution.
It creates smooth, natural bokeh in the background, beautifully highlighting the isolated subject.

Dual Linear AF Motors and 120fps Tracking

The internal autofocus system is driven by two independent linear AF motors.
It achieves exceptionally fast and quiet movement of the optical groups with no delay.
It supports continuous shooting bursts with AF/AE tracking at up to 120 fps.
Autofocus remains fully active while zooming.
This allows focus to be maintained continuously on fast-moving animals, birds, or athletes.
It works seamlessly with the advanced subject recognition algorithms of modern Sony E-mount camera bodies.

OSS Optical Stabilization and 0.41x Magnification

The lens features an advanced Optical SteadyShot (OSS) image stabilization system.
It effectively counteracts hand shake at extreme telephoto focal lengths.
It enables you to capture perfectly clear, sharp photos without needing to use a tripod.
It stands out with a minimum focusing distance of 0.85 meters (2.8 ft).
At its maximum telephoto reach of 400mm, it offers an impressive 0.41x magnification.
This macro capability enables stunning close-up shots of small animals, flowers, and fine details.

Ergonomic Controls and Dust and Moisture Resistance

The lens body features a practical zoom lock switch.
It prevents unwanted zoom creep and barrel extension while carrying the lens or walking.
It is equipped with a Focus Range Limiter for faster response within the desired focus range.
It includes a programmable Focus Hold button for instant control.
The exterior features comprehensive dust and moisture resistance, with special sealing gaskets.
It ensures reliable operation in challenging weather conditions out in the field.
