SONY FE 600MM F/4 GM OSS OVERVIEW
Impressive reach and capable speed, the Sony FE 600mm f/4 GM
OSS is a refined super-telephoto characterized by its G Master optics, durable
construction, and surprisingly lightweight design for increased shooting
versatility. As a super-telephoto prime, this lens is at home with sports and
wildlife subjects, and fast AF performance, apt OSS, and intuitive handling
further round out the professional feature-set.As part of Sony's esteemed G
Master series, this lens is designed to achieve a balance of impressive
resolution and sharpness along with distinctive and pleasing bokeh.
- Bright f/4 maximum aperture enables working in difficult
lighting conditions and also provides extremely shallow depth of field for
isolating subjects from busy backgrounds.
- Three fluorite elements and two extra-low dispersion element
minimize axial and lateral chromatic aberrations, as well as color fringing,
for high clarity and color accuracy.
- Nano AR coating has been applied to interior lens surfaces to
suppress reflections that cause flare and ghosting.
- G Master optical design includes one large-diameter XA
(Extreme Aspherical) element to reduce spherical aberrations and achieve for
high sharpness, and this design, along with a rounded 11-blade diaphragm, also
contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
- XD (Extreme Dynamic) Linear Motor System quietly and quickly
focuses on fast-moving subjects while shooting at high speeds.
- High-precision XD motor system is also complemented by
updated AF algorithms for improved responsiveness and quieter operation,
further benefitting sports and wildlife applications.
- Power Focus functionality for smooth focus during video
recording.
- Full-time DMF supports manually adjusting focus simply by
turning the focusing ring, regardless of the focusing mode, and Linear Response
MF provides a natural and responsive focus feeling for more precise manual
control.
- Focus range limiter switch and preset focus functions
increase focusing efficiency either within a certain constrained range or
immediately to a specified focusing point.
- Optical SteadyShot image stabilization compensates for the
effects of camera shake to better enable making sharp shots when working
handheld.
- When used on a camera body featuring in-body image
stabilization, 5-axis stabilization is available for more robust support.
- Three difference stabilization modes can be used depending on
the shooting situation: Mode 1 for general shooting, Mode 2 for panning
shooting, and Mode 3 prioritizes accurate framing when photographing and
tracking fast and erratically moving subjects.
