This is achieved through an innovative optical design that includes a large XA (extreme aspherical) element, three fluorite elements, one ED glass element, and liberal usage of durable magnesium alloy components. The new design of this well-balanced lens, reduces the number of elements deployed at the front of the barrel, resulting in quicker, more precise planning, whether shooting handheld or on a monopod.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: none;\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/1017\/files\/1_-_World_Lightest_600mm_large.jpg?v=1560269833\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch4\u003eXD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors for fast precise autofocus\u003c\/h4\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eTo make full use of the rapidly evolving performance speed of modern and future camera bodies, the lens’s focus group is driven by two (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors that achieve higher thrust and efficiency than conventional types of AF drive motors. The XD Linear Motors deliver new levels of fast, precise, quiet autofocus operation and contribute to reliable and tenacious AF tracking that sports and wildlife photographers will appreciate. Additionally, a new algorithm developed specifically for the X motors, notably improve their response, minimizing lag and instability that can occur when driving a large aperture focus lens group, resulting in quiet, low-vibration operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/1017\/files\/2_-_XD_Linear_Motors_large.jpg?v=1560269944\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch4\u003eSuperlative G Master quality\u003c\/h4\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eAll lenses bearing the G Master brand are designed to extremely high standards, ensuring that outstanding contrast at high spatial frequencies is maintained right out to the image edges. The optical design includes a large aperture XA (extreme aspherical) element and three fluorite elements that help to minimize axial chromatic aberration that can be a problem in large-aperture lenses, as well as a lateral chromatic aberration that can reduce resolution towards the image periphery. Color bleeding is effectively suppressed, allowing clear reproduction of the finest subject details, while Sony’s original Nano AR coating suppresses any unwanted reflections, glare, or ghosting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/1017\/files\/3_-_Superlatibe_G-Master_quality_large.jpg?v=1560269975\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch4\u003e3x fluorite elements, 1x ED glass element reduces flare and ghosting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eNew optical design that conforms to strict G Master standards, the FE 600mm F4.0 GM OSS lens includes three fluorite elements, and one ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element. The ED glass element helps to reduce chromatic aberration, which is a common problem in telephoto lenses. An extremely high resolution is maintained right out to the image edges. Spherical aberration is optimized to create a perfect balance between high resolution and soft, beautiful bokeh through careful control at both the design and manufacturing stages. Each lens is individually tested and adjusted to achieve ideal characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/1017\/files\/4_-_3x_Flourite_elements_large.jpg?v=1560270010\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch4\u003eWide F4.0max aperture\u003c\/h4\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThe wide F4.0max aperture maintains exposure and depth of field while also allowing maximum light for shooting in almost any condition. When changing your aperture to defocus the background, the areas out of the focal plane appear blurred.

While conventional aperture blades have flat sides creating unappealing, polygonal shaped defocussed points of light. α lenses overcome this problem through a unique design that keeps the aperture almost perfectly circular from its wide-open setting to when it is closed by 2 stops. Smoother, more natural defocusing can be obtained as a result. In addition to careful control of spherical aberration at the design stage, each lens is individually tested and adjusted during manufacture to achieve the highest possible bokeh quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0750\/1017\/files\/6_-_11-blade_circular_aperture_large.jpg?v=1560270086\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003ch4\u003eNano AR Coating\u003c\/h4\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eSony’s original Nano AR Coating is applied to interior lens surfaces to effectively suppress reflections that can lead to flare and ghosting, significantly enhancing image clarity and contrast.

When in the PRESET position, the SET button is initially used to memorize the desired focus point, moving the function ring in either direction will immediately set focus to the memorized point. This can be a huge advantage for sports and other rapidly changing situations, allowing the focus to be preset in advance and instantly recalled to ensure that the decisive moment is properly captured. This function is available whether shooting with AF or MF and can focus outside a set focus limit range. When in the function position, functions can be assigned to the FUNCTION mode via a camera body menu. If Power Focus is assigned and the function ring is rotated, focus shifts smoothly at a speed determined by the amount of function ring rotation. This allows a smooth focus shift for movies. If APS-C\/Full Frame Select6is assigned, the function ring can be rotated to switch between APS-C and full-frame angles of view.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sony","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46950954107055,"sku":"SEL600F40GM","price":14098.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/6415\/2239\/files\/SEL600F40GM_A-Large.jpg?v=1779431129","url":"https:\/\/freshized.com\/products\/sony-fe-600mm-f4-gm-oss-lens","provider":"Freshized","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
