Outstanding G Lens resolution throughout the zoom range

The SEL200600G features outstanding corner-to-corner sharpness throughout the 200-600mm zoom range. To achieve this outstanding G Lens resolution, it incorporates an aspherical element and five ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements in a new optical design to minimize chromatic aberration that can be a problem at super-telephoto focal lengths. In addition, Nano AR Coating is used to reduce flare and ghosting.

E200-600mm with extended reach

The SEL200600G features a versatile zoom range of 200-600mm with a variable aperture of F5.6-6.3 (wide to tele). This incredible zoom range can be further extended using optional 1.4x or 2.0x teleconverters that extend the telephoto reach up to a maximum 840mm (F9) or 1200mm (F13) respectively, while maintaining outstanding image quality and AF performance. The zoom and aperture range with the 1.4x teleconverter is 280-840mm, F8-9 and with the 2.0x teleconverter is 400-1200mm, F11-13.

DDSSM delivers fast, precise, quiet autofocus 1

The SEL200600G employs Sony’s DDSSM (Direct Drive Supersonic Wave Motor) system which has the power and precision needed to drive the heavy focus group, ensuring that moving subjects are reliably and quietly tracked with exceptional speed and precision. High positioning accuracy means that pinpoint autofocus is achieved with blazing speed. The advanced DDSSM system is also

exceptionally quiet, avoiding any unwanted noise that can disrupt an unpredictable subject like a resting bird or any other form of wildlife. The Direct Drive Supersonic Wave Motor (DDSSM) focus system ensures that moving subjects are reliably and quietly tracked with exceptional speed and precision.

1 When the NEX series, ILCE-3000/3500, ILCE-5000/5100, ILCE-7/7R/7S, is attached, the autofocus function is limited.

Features

Internal zoom mechanism

An internal zoom mechanism means that the length of the

lens remains constant while zooming, maintaining ideal

balance for stable shooting. Since the lens zoom mechanism is internal, it also has a high resistance to dust and moisture unlike other super telephoto lenses that are typically prone to drawing dust and moisture into the lens. The internal zoom offers quick zoom operation with light zoom ring torque and is ideal in difficult outdoor conditions.

11 - blade circular aperture

An 11-blade circular aperture mechanism adds to the beauty of the bokeh produced by the SEL200600G lens, making it possible to use the narrow depth of field available at super-telephoto focal lengths to produce striking images with deep, creamy G Lens bokeh.

ED glass reduces flare and ghosting

ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements take axial chromatic aberration and chromatic aberration caused by differences in magnification, out of the picture. The 200-600mm G Super telephoto zoom lens incorporates one five ED glass elements to maximize resolution and bokeh, while leaving precisely rendered edges with no fringing or unnatural coloration.
