FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS overview
The Sony FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS is a 300mm f/2.8 prime for full-frame cameras on Sony E-mount, announced by Sony in November 2023. 39 cameras we track take it without an adapter.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits wildlife and sport. It is a weaker pick for travelling light.
No store we track in Europe lists it today. It is listed in the United States, Australia and Singapore.
Worth comparing it with the Sony FE 400mm F2.8 GM OSS.
