The best modern lenses are sharp, fast, and light. Toss in cutting-edge auto-focus and electronic image stabilization, and it’s easy to see why they so often outshine their classic counterparts. Nowhere is this clearer than in the case of long lenses.
Sony’s FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS is the lightest 300mm F2.8 lens available for mirrorless full-frame cameras. Part of Sony’s G Master series of lenses, the FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS offers the highest image quality of Sony’s entire lineup. It’s also a joy to handle.
If you photograph action, sports, or birds, this one’s for you.
