Extended zoom range

Extended 70-300mm range in an FE zoom

A 70mm to 300mm range can handle a wide range of subjects, from portraits and scenery to sports and nature. On an APS-C camera 300mm becomes 450mm super-telephoto.

The first E-mount zoom to cover a 70mm to 300mm range is a versatile image-making tool that can handle a wide range of subjects, from portraits and scenery to sports and nature. On an APS-C the telephoto end of the range provides a 450mm equivalent focal length for serious super-telephoto photography.

Precision optics

High resolution at any focal length

Four aspherical elements and two ED glass elements work with Sony’s Nano AR Coating to deliver superb corner-to-corner resolution and beautiful G Lens background bokeh.

Four aspherical elements and two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements work with Sony’s Nano AR Coating to ensure that all forms of optical aberration are effectively suppressed for superb corner-to-corner resolution. The same design also contributes to the beautiful background bokeh that is an important part of G Lens appeal.

MTF Chart

MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) describes how well a lens can reproduce fine details, measured as the degree of contrast achieved between finely spaced lines.

Operation optimized for versatile control

Plenty of on-lens control is provided for versatile shooting in a wide range of situations. A focus-mode switch lets you select manual or auto focus on the fly, a focus-hold button can hold the focus point even during continuous AF operation, and a focus-range limiter switch can be used to preset a focusing distance range for maximum AF speed.

Reliable in challenging conditions

A sealed dust and moisture resistant design provides extra protection and ensures reliable operation in challenging environments. Shoot with confidence in light rain or windy conditions.** Although the design is dust and moisture resistant, absolute protection from dust and moisture is not guaranteed.
