SEL100400MC Super Telephoto Zoom

Discover the Sony SEL100400MC FE 100-400mm F4.5 GM OSS, a premium G Master super-telephoto zoom lens built for wildlife, bird, sports, and photojournalism photography. It combines advanced optics, fast autofocus, optical image stabilization, and a lightweight inner-zoom design to deliver exceptional performance for both stills and video.

Outstanding Optical Performance

The versatile 100-400mm zoom range provides excellent reach for distant subjects. An optional teleconverter extends the focal length up to 800mm for even greater versatility. The advanced optical design includes one ED XA (Extra-low Dispersion Extreme Aspherical) element, XA elements, Super ED glass, and ED glass to reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations while maintaining outstanding sharpness throughout the zoom range. Nano AR Coating II minimizes flare and ghosting, delivering high contrast and clear images even in difficult lighting conditions. Floating focus technology preserves image quality during close-up shooting, supporting up to 0.25x magnification at the minimum focusing distance.

Fast Autofocus and Professional Control

Four XD Linear Motors and advanced autofocus algorithms drive the floating focus groups to deliver up to three times faster autofocus while improving subject tracking performance by up to 50%. When paired with the Sony α9 III, the lens supports reliable autofocus tracking during burst shooting at up to 120 fps. Four customizable focus hold buttons provide quick access to frequently used functions, while the programmable function ring supports Preset Focus, APS-C/Full Frame switching, or Power Focus. A zoom smoothness switch and security slot add flexibility for professional workflows.

Built for Demanding Shooters

The constant F4.5 maximum aperture maintains consistent exposure throughout the zoom range, allowing uninterrupted shooting while zooming. An 11-blade circular aperture and two XA elements produce smooth G Master bokeh with reduced onion-ring artifacts, while ED and Super ED elements help minimize color bleeding. Advanced Optical SteadyShot works alongside compatible Sony camera stabilization systems and offers dedicated MODE 2 and MODE 3 settings for panning and moving subjects, while also supporting Active Mode stabilization for video. The lightweight 1,840g magnesium alloy construction and inner-zoom mechanism improve balance and reduce fatigue during extended handheld shooting. Sony also uses recyclable, non-plastic packaging materials, including plant-based non-woven fabric product bags.
