What makes the Sony FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS well suited for sports and wildlife photography?
It combines a fast f/2.8 maximum aperture with newly developed XD Linear Motors for extremely fast, precise, quiet autofocus and up to a 5x improvement in moving-subject tracking performance. Its remarkably lightweight design also provides the portability and handheld maneuverability that active photographers appreciate.
Does the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS have image stabilization?
Yes, it features built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization to make it easier to capture sharp images when shooting handheld. In addition to Mode 2 for panning shots, it includes a new Mode 3 that prioritizes stable framing when following fast, unpredictable moving subjects.

MSRP is listed as $12,999.99. Given that, these models can go on sale from time to time, and there are several other opportunities to save on price like through their group discounts for education, healthcare and military/veterans (ID.me & Unidays) along with their free loyalty program that gives up to 5% back in points.
How much does the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS weigh?
The lens weighs just 102.2 oz (2,895 g), making it remarkably lightweight for a super-telephoto prime. An innovative optical design with three fluorite elements, fewer front elements, and durable magnesium alloy components helps reduce its weight and moment of inertia by up to approximately 50% compared to the SAL500F40G.
Is the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS compatible with teleconverters?
Yes, it supports the optional 1.4x and 2.0x tele-converters, providing up to 800mm focal length (1200mm equivalent on APS-C bodies) with an F5.6 maximum aperture. Outstanding imaging performance and fast, precise AF operation are maintained when either tele-converter is used.
What optical technologies does the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS use for image quality?
As a G Master lens, it maintains outstanding contrast at high spatial frequencies out to the image edges, using three fluorite elements to minimize chromatic aberration. Nano AR Coating suppresses flare and ghosting, while an 11-blade circular aperture delivers natural, beautiful bokeh.
Does the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS support filters?
Yes, it includes a drop-in filter slot that accepts ø 40.5 mm ND and other filter types, as well as the optional VF-DCPL1 drop-in circular polarizer. The circular polarizer can be rotated to achieve the desired polarization while installed in the lens.
Is the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS durable enough for harsh outdoor conditions?
Yes, its dust- and moisture-resistant design provides the reliability needed for outdoor use in harsh conditions, though it is not guaranteed to be 100% dust- and moisture-proof. It also uses durable magnesium alloy components and a fluorine front-element coating that repels dirt and fingerprints.
What is the focus range limiter on the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS?
The focus range limit switch lets you select a limited focus range when the fastest possible focusing is required. Three settings are provided: FULL, 7 m–2.7 m, and ∞–7 m.
Does the FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS include a lens hood and case?
Yes, it comes with a strong, lightweight carbon fiber lens hood with interior flocking for optimum light control. A dedicated trunk-style hard case is also supplied to protect the lens from shock and vibration during transport.
