The Sony FE 400mm f2.8 GM OSS is a professional super-telephoto prime for Sony E-mount full-frame bodies, built for sports, wildlife and action shooters. It pairs a bright f2.8 aperture with optical stabilization and a linear AF motor, and its 23-element design uses three fluorite elements to cut chromatic aberration. Its main draw against rivals is weight: at about 6.4 lb it is lighter than comparable 400mm f2.8 lenses from Canon and Nikon, which owners say makes hand-holding and panning more practical. Reviewers rate the sharpness wide open and the fast, quiet autofocus highly, while noting the size, the cost and the need for a sturdy support when shooting long days.
