Sony’s new compact FE 100–400mm combines excellent image quality, fast autofocus, lightweight portability, and versatile reach for wildlife, sports, travel, video, and everyday content creation.
This compact, lightweight 100-400mm super-telephoto zoom lens captures distant moments and expressions with outstanding clarity. ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass and aspherical elements minimize color bleeding and other aberrations, while fast, precise AF and optical image stabilization capture active subjects with amazing detail and impact, even when shooting handheld.
This lightweight, compact 100-400mm super-telephoto zoom weighs only 654 g (23.1 oz.) with a max. diameter of 78.2 mm (3-1/8 in.) and length of 164.5 mm (6-1/2 in.). Fill the frame with distant subjects such as birds or children’s faces for impact and expression that is only available at super-telephoto focal lengths. Optional teleconverters *1 provide up to 800 mm reach, which becomes 1200 mm in APS-C format. *2
An optical design that includes two ED glass elements and two aspherical elements effectively reduces color bleeding and other aberrations for sharp, clear rendering of subjects from near to distant. A 9-blade circular aperture contributes to smooth, natural bokeh. Up to 0.41x magnification and 0.86 m (2.83 ft.) minimum focusing distance allow stunning close-ups of flowers and insects too.
Dual linear motors contribute to fast, precise, quiet AF that easily locks onto and tracks active subjects. With the α9 III body, it is possible to shoot bursts at up to 120 fps with full AF performance. The lens’s optical stabilization also works with compatible bodies for even greater stabilization performance, effectively compensating for the large blur that can occur with telephoto lenses for consistently stable framing. *3
An easily accessible focus hold button makes it possible to temporarily hold focus while composing an image. Other features that support telephoto shooting can be assigned to the focus hold button via the camera menus. A combined focus mode and focus range limiter switch (AF FULL/AF ∞-3m/MF) makes operation faster and easier, and a zoom lock switch prevents unwanted lens extension when the lens is aimed downward.
A dust and moisture resistant design *4 helps ensure reliable operation in outdoor conditions, withstanding morning fog when shooting birds or airborne dust at sports events. Sealing at critical joints and seams help resist dust and moisture.
The supplied ALC-SH188 lens hood has been specifically designed to prevent light entering the lens from outside its angle of view, minimizing flare and ghosting.
