Description
E-mount 400-800 mm super-telephoto zoo
The FE 400-800 F6.3-8 G OSSis Sony’s first αLens that covers the 800 mm super-telephoto zoom range. Optional1.4x and 2xteleconverters can be used to extend that range up to 1600 mm. Super-telephoto focal lengths are ideal for birds and wildlife, sports, aircraft, and other subjects that can’t be approached closely, as well as scenes that benefit from telephoto compression.
Internal zoom and optimized zoom control
Internal zoom means the length of the lens does not change while zooming, and the center of gravity stays within a small range for stable handling. Smooth, easy zoom ring rotation allows quick zooming to any focal length in the range, while careful design reduces the possibility of accidental focal length changes.
Superb quality throughout the zoom range
Six ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements effectively control chromatic aberration that can be a problem at super-telephoto focal lengths. Flare and ghosting are also thoroughly suppressed. An 11-blade circular aperture helps to create beautiful ball bokeh amid exceptionally smooth background bokeh when shooting with a narrow depth of field.
1.7 m minimum focus at 0.23x magnification
Offering remarkable close-up capability for a super-telephoto zoom, VX8042 features a minimum focusing distance of just 1.7 m (5.58ft) at the wide end of the zoom range and a maximum magnification of 0.23x. This level of close-up performance dramatically expands the potential uses of this versatile lens.
Fast, precise AF captures quick subjects
Two precision linear motors drive the lens's focus group for fast, accurate focusing. Tracking easily keeps up with the 120 fps*2maximum burst speed of the α9III and continues uninterrupted even while zooming so important moments are not lost. A focus-range limiter (FULL / 10m-NEAR /∞-8m) can be used to optimize operation for different subject distances. Focus breathing is suppressed for refined movie quality and quiet operation expands the gamut of possible applications.
