Powerful 70–300mm Zoom Range for Versatile Shooting

The Sony FE 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 G OSS lens offers an incredibly flexible focal range, making it ideal for everything from wildlife and sports photography to portraits and distant landscapes. Whether you're shooting on a Sony full-frame or APS-C mirrorless body, this zoom lens gives you reach and creative control—perfect for enthusiasts and professionals alike.

Built-In Optical SteadyShot (OSS) for Sharp Handheld Shots

Thanks to Sony's Optical SteadyShot technology, this lens delivers remarkably stable images—even at full zoom. OSS compensates for handheld camera shake, making it easier to capture sharp, blur-free photos and video in low light or at slower shutter speeds. It's a must-have feature for travel and action photography.

Exceptional G Series Optical Quality

Part of Sony's premium G Series, this lens features an advanced optical design, including ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements that help minimise chromatic aberrations and ensure superb image clarity across the entire frame. Expect stunning sharpness, colour accuracy, and contrast, even when shooting at the full 300mm extension.

Fast, Precise Autofocus with Linear Motor Drive

Whether you're capturing fast-moving wildlife or fleeting moments on the street, the linear motor-driven autofocus system ensures smooth, quick, and silent focusing performance. Compatible with Sony's latest autofocus technologies, this lens performs exceptionally well in photo and video applications.

Dust and Moisture-Resistant for Outdoor Reliability

The Sony FE 70-300mm G OSS is engineered for real-world shooting and has a weather-sealed design that protects against dust and moisture. This lens is ideal for outdoor and travel photographers, ready to perform in challenging environments—from the beach to the mountains.

Excellent Choice for Video on Sony E-Mount Cameras

Videographers will appreciate the smooth focus transitions and quiet AF operation, especially when paired with Sony Alpha cameras like the a7 IV or FX30. Combined with in-camera stabilization and the OSS system, this lens is excellent for handheld telephoto video work.

Close Focusing Distance for Creative Flexibility

With a minimum focusing distance of just 0.9 meters (2.95 feet), this lens lets you get surprisingly close to your subjects—ideal for detail shots and compressed perspective portraits. It's a rare feature in this range of telephoto lenses, offering added creative opportunities.

Compact and Lightweight for a Telephoto Zoom

Weighing just 854g (30.1 oz), the Sony FE 70-300mm is impressively portable for such a powerful zoom. It's easy to pack in a camera bag and carry all day—perfect for travel, wildlife safaris, or outdoor adventures where mobility matters.
