The Sony FE 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G OSS is a full-frame E-mount telephoto zoom for Sony mirrorless cameras. It covers a versatile 70-300mm range with four aspherical and two ED elements, a Nano AR coating to cut flare, and Optical SteadyShot stabilization for handheld shooting. A linear actuator motor gives smooth, quiet autofocus suited to stills and video, and the lens is dust- and moisture-resistant. It suits sports, wildlife and travel shooters who want reach without a heavy prime, though at f/4.5-5.6 it is slower than premium f/2.8 or f/4 telephotos and its aperture narrows as you zoom out.

Owners generally rate the lens as a solid, dependable telephoto zoom with good sharpness, effective stabilization and quiet autofocus. Some find it soft wide open at 300mm and note the slow aperture limits low-light use.
The Sony FE 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G OSS is a telephoto zoom lens for full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras. On APS-C format cameras it gives an equivalent zoom range of 105-450mm. The variable f/4.5-5.6 aperture helps keep the lens size and weight to a minimum.
The optical design has four aspherical elements and two extra-low dispersion glass elements. These reduce spherical and chromatic aberrations, astigmatism, field curvature, coma and color fringing. A Nano AR coating on individual elements minimizes flare and ghosting in strong lighting. The rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh when using selective focus.
Optical SteadyShot image stabilization reduces camera shake for handheld shooting. It can be combined with the sensor-shift stabilization of select cameras. A focus range limiter and a focus hold button are included. The lens is dust- and moisture-resistant, and the rubberized control rings help with handling in colder temperatures.
