The f\/4.5 maximum aperture enables a more compact and lightweight construction while preserving adequate light collection capabilities, particularly when combined with optical image stabilization technology. By incorporating a single front element design, the lens achieves an optimized weight distribution with its center of gravity positioned closer to the camera body, resulting in superior balance for sustained handheld operation. Measuring just 9.5 inches in length and tipping the scales at 2.2 pounds, this lens exhibits proportions more reminiscent of a standard 70-200mm f\/2.8 zoom than a conventional super-telephoto prime lens. In direct comparison to the FE 400mm f\/2.8 model, this f\/4.5 alternative delivers a weight reduction of 4.2 pounds and a length reduction of 4.6 inches.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/kmc.cwa.sellercloud.com\/images\/products\/1909599.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"276\" style=\"float: left; \"\u003eHigh-Speed AF, Powerful OSS\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered for rapid performance, accuracy, and dependable operation, the autofocus and image stabilization mechanisms render this lens ideal for photographing athletic events and wildlife photography without requiring a tripod. A pair of XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors deliver swift and reactive autofocus capabilities that operate with minimal noise and exceptional smoothness. The autofocus mechanism supports continuous shooting in both still photography and video formats at frame rates reaching 120 fps.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eManual focus adjustment remains accessible at all times, while an internal focusing mechanism preserves the lens's physical dimensions and facilitates quicker autofocus response. A focus range restriction feature and four dedicated focus hold controls grant enhanced precision over autofocus behavior, helping you capture every critical moment. An intelligent Optical SteadyShot stabilization technology guarantees crisp, clear images during handheld operation. Three distinct stabilization options are provided: conventional stabilization (Mode 1), horizontal tracking for panning movements (Mode 2), and dynamic stabilization for moving subjects (Mode 3).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003eG Master Optical Performance\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/kmc.cwa.sellercloud.com\/images\/products\/1909598.jpg\" width=\"499\" height=\"329\" style=\"float: right; \"\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eSony's G Master designation is reserved exclusively for lenses that demonstrate exceptional sharpness, refined bokeh characteristics, rapid autofocus performance, and superior optical quality overall.
