Unmatched Reach: With a focal range of 400–800mm, this lens surpasses Sony’s previous longest zooms, offering unparalleled reach for distant subjects.

Optical SteadyShot (OSS) Stabilization: Sony’s OSS technology provides effective image stabilization, crucial for handheld shooting at long focal lengths. The lens features multiple OSS modes to accommodate various shooting scenarios, enhancing stability and reducing blur
Professional Handling: The internal zoom mechanism maintains a constant lens length, ensuring balanced handling and preventing lens extension during zooming. The lens includes three customizable focus hold buttons positioned at 90° intervals, a focus range limiter, and a tripod collar with 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 thread options for versatile mounting
Durable, Weather-Sealed Design: Designed for field use, the lens features a dust- and moisture-resistant construction, a fluorine-coated front element to repel water and oil, and a redesigned lens hood with a lock button and filter window for easy adjustments
Wildlife & Bird Photography: The extensive focal range allows photographers to capture detailed images of distant or elusive animals without disturbing them.
Aviation & Sports: The fast autofocus and long reach make it suitable for photographing aircraft in flight or athletes on the field from a distance.
