Home/Catalogue/All Available Products/Sony A mount 500mm f4 super telephoto prime lens

About the product.

The Sony 500mm F4 G SSM is the flagship super-telephoto prime in Sony's A-mount lineup, built for sports and wildlife shooters who need reach without sacrificing speed. This 500mm super-telephoto lens with a constant F4 maximum aperture is ideal for sports and wildlife photographers, providing extended telephoto reach.

It includes a high speed Super Sonic wave Motor (SSM) for fast, accurate, and quiet autofocus, alongside internal focusing and two direct manual focus modes. Its optical design uses 11 elements in 10 groups, including three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements, and it was the first G Lens from Sony to use an advanced new coating process for improved clarity. Lenses like this rarely come up secondhand and are sought after by anyone shooting distant, fast-moving subjects on A-mount bodies.
