Sony FE 300mm f/2.8 OSS GM Lens

The Sony FE 300mm f/2.8 OSS GM Lens is the lightest large-aperture telephoto prime lens in its class, delivering outstanding optical performance and rendering plus astonishingly fast, precise AF in a versatile lens that weighs just 1470 grams (51.0 oz. excludes tripod mount). It is an ideal match for lightweight bodies that reduce load on the user, and it can minimize stress and fatigue during long handheld shooting sessions. The SEL300F28GM has been carefully designed to meet the varied needs of professional photographers shooting sports, events, wildlife, and more with easy handling and agile maneuverability. The full might of Sony’s most advanced technology has been applied to ensure that this groundbreaking lens delivers unsurpassed performance, speed, and mobility when paired with full-frame mirrorless α series camera bodies.

Key Features of the Sony FE 300mm f/2.8 OSS GM Lens

• High resolution plus bokeh that can make images pop
• Fast, precise AF brings out the full potential of advanced bodies
• Exceptional mobility and operability support professional creation
• High reliability in outdoor and sports applications

Excellent corner-to-corner resolution

The SEL300F28GM can capture decisive moments with breathtaking G Master resolution . An innovative optical design that includes three Super ED (Extra -low Dispersion) glass elements and one ED glass element effectively subdues axial chromatic aberration that is common in large-aperture telephoto lenses, as well as lateral chromatic aberration that can degrade resolution toward the image periphery. Outstanding resolution and contrast are maintain ed right out to the image edges, which also allows for more flexible cropping and editing. Optional 1.4x (SEL144TC) and 2.0x (SEL20TC) teleconverters provide even greater versatility. With the SEL20TC the SEL300F28GM offers a 600 mm focal length (900 mm equivalent on APS-C format) and F5.6 maximum aperture while maintaining outstanding resolution.

Beautiful bokeh brings subjects to the fore

Gorgeous, creamy bokeh that is a hallmark of G Master design ideally complements the lens’s 300 mm focal length and F2.8 maxi mum aperture, allowing the use of narrow depth of field to make subjects stand out from the background. In addition to Super ED (extra -low dispersion) and ED elements in a new optical design that effectively suppresses color bleeding, each lens is individually calibrated during manufacture to optimize bokeh quality. An 11-blade circular aperture mechanism contributes to smooth ball bokeh.

Flare and ghosting minimized for eye-opening clarity

Adding to the effectiveness of Sony’s original Nano AR Coating II, reflections inside the lens barrel are carefully controlled to minimize flare and ghosting for crisp, clear images.

Fast, precise AF is also quiet and low in vibration

The SEL300F28GM maximizes the speed potential of high-performance camera bodies, making it easier than ever to capture important moments in dynamic sports action or fast-moving wildlife scenes. Two XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors with high thrust efficiency and an advanced control algorithm have been specially fine tuned for use in the SEL300F28GM, achieving extremely fast response to control signals so that the large-diameter focus element group is precisely controlled with minimal time lag and vibration. The result is exceptionally responsive, precise, quiet, low-vibration AF operation.

High-speed continuous shooting with fast, precise AF/AE

AF tracking speed and precision are maintained even when shooting continuous bursts at a small F22 aperture. The user can shoot continuously while panning to follow moving subjects, or stop down to achieve greater depth of field without having to worry about minimum aperture limitations.

High AF tracking performance with 1.4x and 2,0x teleconverters

Fast, precise AF performance is available even when the SEL300F28GM is used with the optional SEL14TC (1.4x) or SEL20TC (2.0x ) teleconverter.
