FE 400mm F4.5 GM OSS overview
The Sony FE 400mm F4.5 GM OSS is a 400mm f/4.5 prime for full-frame cameras on Sony E-mount, announced by Sony in September 2026. 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 low light without a tripod.
New, it sells for $2,698 to $2,699.99 at the 5 stores we track in the United States that have it in stock. It launched at $2,699.99.
Worth comparing it with the Sigma 500mm F5.6 DG DN OS | Sports.
