Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS Super Telephoto Zoom Lens

Zoom further with this Sony 200-600mm Super-Telephoto Zoom Lens with outstanding sharpness, fast AF and compact design. This lens features outstanding corner-to-corner sharpness throughout the 200-600mm zoom range. To achieve this outstanding G Lens resolution, it incorporates an aspherical element and five ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements in a new optical design to minimize chromatic aberration that can be a problem at super-telephoto focal lengths. In addition, Nano antireflective coating is used to reduce flare and ghosting.

200-600mm with Extended Reach

The lens features a versatile zoom range of 200-600mm with a variable aperture of f/5.6-6.3 (wide to tele). This incredible zoom range can be further extended using optional 1.4x or 2.0x teleconverters that extend the telephoto reach up to a maximum 840mm (f/9) or 1200mm (f/13) respectively, while maintaining outstanding image quality and AF performance. The zoom and aperture range with the 1.4x teleconverter is 280-840mm, f/8-9 and with the 2.0x teleconverter is 400-1200mm, f/11-13.

DDSSM Delivers Fast, Precise, Quiet Autofocus

The lens employs Sony’s DDSSM (Direct Drive Supersonic Wave Motor) system which has the power and precision needed to drive the heavy focus group, ensuring that moving subjects are reliably and quietly tracked with exceptional speed and precision. High positioning accuracy means that pinpoint autofocus is achieved with blazing speed. The advanced DDSSM system is also exceptionally quiet, avoiding any unwanted noise that can disrupt an unpredictable subject like a resting bird or any other form of wildlife.

Internal Zoom Mechanism

An internal zoom mechanism means that the length of the lens remains constant while zooming, maintaining ideal balance for stable shooting. Since the lens zoom mechanism is internal, it also has a high resistance to dust and moisture unlike other super telephoto lenses that are typically prone to drawing dust and moisture into the lens. The internal zoom offers quick zoom operation with light zoom ring torque and is ideal in difficult outdoor conditions.

11-Blade Circular Aperture

An 11-blade circular aperture mechanism adds to the beauty of the bokeh produced by the lens, making it possible to use the narrow depth of field available at super-telephoto focal lengths to produce striking images with deep, creamy G Lens bokeh.

ED Glass Reduces Flare and Ghosting

ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements take axial chromatic aberration and chromatic aberration caused by differences in magnification, out of the picture. The 200-600mm G Super telephoto zoom lens incorporates one five ED glass elements to maximize resolution and bokeh, while leaving precisely rendered edges with no fringing or unnatural coloration.

Reduces Spherical Aberration

An aspherical lens is incorporated to dramatically reduce spherical aberration while also reducing lens size and weight. Spherical aberration is a slight misalignment of the light rays projected on the image plane. This is caused by differences in refraction at different points on conventional spherical lenses which degrade image quality in large-aperture lenses. Specially shaped aspherical elements near the diaphragm restore alignment of light rays at the image plane, maintaining high sharpness and contrast even at maximum aperture and can also be used at other points in the optical path to reduce distortion. Well-designed aspherical elements can reduce the total number of elements required in the lens, reducing overall size and weight.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from The long lens Great optics. Heavier and longer than I anticipated perhaps should’ve gotten the 100-400 with 1.4 extender

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic for action sports I have had this lens for three years and thousands of sport frames, college and pros - the Sony 200-600 works well with all my Sony mirrorless cameras - 1/3 of a turn from 200-600 - light in weight - also shot some mountainscapes for personal files - a must lens :)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best Value Telephoto Lens w/ Outstanding Quality I have been using this lens in a wide variety of uses now for 2.5 years and have always enjoyed using this lens for a variety of reasons - not to mention I have taken many great images on this lens. Like any lens you buy, there are going to be specific things you may use this lens for; I personally use it for surf related subjects as I need the reach that my 70-200 simply can get and still need the full quality of the image however, I have used this lens in a variety of ways including surf shots, portrait shots, moon imagery, birding/animal, and landscape/sea scape. I have also used this lens to capture some really nice slow shutter speed imagery as well. This lens is not only extremely lightweight for its size, it's tack sharp. If you are looking for a fairly reasonable budget, this lens will fit that for the amount of lens you are getting. You can shoot subjects as wide as 200mm and have the reach of up to 600mm (plus the option to add either the 1.4x or the 2x teleconverter to this lens. I commonly am using mode 2 or 3 on the lens pending which subject I am shooting and what is happening with the action. In my opinion, this is by far Sony's best "bang for you buck lens" if you are in need of a telephoto lens. I would say that for the pricepoint of this lens and the ability to shoot at F5.6 to F6.3 - it's pretty sweet lens to add to my collection.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Heavy, but Awesome! As a sports photographer the 200-600 has been absolutely excellent. Plan accordingly if you need to hike with it, But know you will get that shot! An additional Benefit being its compatibility with the Teleconverters, the 1.4X has almost no loss of quality and very little added weight.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absolute beast of a lens Actually a correct statement as it is heavy, but can be handled without a tripod for wildlife quick shots. It is also a beast of a lens in that I have found it to be very sharp throughout the range and aperture settings. I have not had it long, but have taken quite a few shots of birds and squirrels in my backyard. They are sharp down to the small feathers or tiny hair on these animals. I have not found any noticeable distortion at the edges or chromatic issues with this lens. The zoom works smoothly, and the manual focus is of course electronic, but works perfect. I know if you have a newer camera like an a! or a9, you will be even more pleased than I am with my a7lll and a6500 cameras. I am looking forward to shooting the eclipse this April with this lens.
