Lens Description

The Sony Alpha 70-400mm F/4-5.6G SSM is a normal to super telephoto zoom designed for cameras with a Full-Frame sensor. This variable-aperture zoom covers a 70mm to 400mm focal-range.

This zoom can focus down to 150cm from the imaging plane which gives it a maximum magnification of 0.27X. The lens supports autofocus and features a switch to disengage AF for focusing manually. A Super-Sonic motor inside the lens delivers very fast and relatively quiet AF.

This lens is only available for Sony A. It directly attaches and is fully compatible with all Sony A mount cameras with Full-Frame or smaller sensors.
