Pros and cons

According to our camera lens expert

  • Thanks to the large zoom range, the lens is suitable for sports, nature, and animal photography.
  • The high-quality lens elements allow you to take sharp photos, even when you zoom in completely.
  • You can capture activity moments with fast and accurate focusing.
  • You can focus at a minimum distance of 240 centimeters, so can't photograph too close to your subject.
  • Due to the large design and weight of 2115 grams, the use of a tripod is recommended.

Description

The Sony 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS lens is suitable for photographers who like to go on safari or record sports competitions. You use the lens in combination with your Sony mirrorless camera. Thanks to the large zoom range of 200 to 600mm, you can capture subjects sharply at great distances, such as tigers, lions, or athletes. Even if you zoom in completely, the quality of the photo remains high, thanks to the ED lens elements and the aspherical elements. You can focus the lens quickly and accurately with the Direct Drive SSM, which makes it suitable for capturing activity moments. Because the system is quiet, it doesn't scare animals. The 11 aperture shutters provide a natural background blur. This makes your subject stand out even more.
