Exquisite detail from 70 to 350mm. Optimised optical and mechanical design offers outstanding super-telephoto zoom performance for APS-C bodies (105-525mm equiv.). Impressive G Lens quality is maintained throughout the zoom range, right out to the image edges. All of this is packed into a compact, mobile 5x super-telephoto zoom lens with built-in optical image stabilisation.
Extended 70mm to 350mm Zoom Range
This lens’s 70-350mm (105-525mm 35mm full-frame equivalent) zoom range offers plenty of coverage for a wide spectrum of subjects, from landscapes to wildlife and more.
Superb Image Quality at Any Focal Length
One aspherical element and three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements in a precision optical design suppress aberration throughout the lens’s zoom range, including chromatic aberration that can be an issue at super-telephoto focal lengths. Excellent sharpness and rendering are achieved at all focal lengths, throughout the image area.
Gorgeous G Lens Bokeh
A circular aperture mechanism enhances bokeh quality, making it possible to take advantage of the narrow depth of field available with a super-telephoto zoom lens to create impressive images with smooth, gorgeous G Lens bokeh.
Compact, Mobile 5x Super-Telephoto Zoom
lthough it offers a big 5x zoom range, this compact lens weighs in at just 625 grams, maximising the mobility of the entire camera system.
Clear, Blur-Free Images Without a Tripod
Built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilisation makes it easier to capture blur-free images, particularly when shooting at super-telephoto focal lengths. [1] SteadyShot OFF [2] SteadyShot ON
XD Linear Motor in an APS-C Lens
Sony’s XD (extreme dynamic) linear motor technology is available in an APS-C lens, offering top-class AF performance that is fast, precise, and tenacious. Coupled with the real-time AF capability of the latest compact APS-C bodies, you have a high-performance, easy-handling system for landscapes, wildlife, and more.
Versatile, Customisable Focus Hold Button
A conveniently located focus hold button provides convenient focus hold control. The button can also be customised via a camera menu that allows assignment of other functions, such as Right/Left Eye Select, as required.
Zoom Lock Switch
Engage the zoom lock switch to prevent the lens from extending under its own weight during transportation.
Fast Auto/Manual Focus Switching
An AF/MF focus mode switch on the lens makes it easy to quickly switch between auto and manual focus to respond to changing shooting needs.
Dust and Moisture Resistant Design
A dust and moisture resistant design provides the reliability needed for outdoor use in challenging conditions. *Not garanteed to be 100% dust and moisture proof.
