🔎 Discover the Full Potential of Photography with Sony FE 70-300mm SEL70300G F4.5-5.6 G OSS Lens Review

I bought this lens earlier this year and have been using it for wildlife and bird photography ever since. It's not very good in very low light, but with the right ISO in low light it's fine. Focusing is fast enough, bokeh is pleasant. It's a good solid lens for the price and paired with my Sony A7riii it gave me some great bird shots.

This lens is completely unsuitable for video due to manual focusing via cable. The lack of true manual focus means no focus movements are repetitive or predictable. Worse, the speed at which you turn the focus ring determines the change in focus, NOT how far you turn the focus ring (like any other lens). did). It also doesn't have focus markers or focus windows; A glaring omission for such an expensive lens. So overall this is a very disappointing video lens and totally useless/unusable. Do not

I recently bought this lens ("like new, in the box”) and I like it, except that in low light it doesn't fully focus in either manual or auto mode. In the shade, I often have to push it back 200mm or less to focus. I don't know if that's a defect or is this lens only good for excellent light conditions? When I can focus, I get great photos! Update, six months later: I had to upgrade my rating to 5 stars. I liked this lens! I think it just won't/won't focus if there isn't enough light, which is…

After two years of use I'm taking this lens out of my bag more and more and loving the results. I consistently get great shots and love the rich colors. I mainly use it on my a7Riii these days and think it's a great combination. Yes, the lens is heavier than a walzoom, but quality glass is always heavy. The 70-300 is about the same weight and length as the 24-70 GM, which I also use on the A7Riii. I find both lenses well balanced on this body. However, it's a bit heavy for the A6000 series…

First, I'm an absolute amateur. It was also my first experience with an E-mount camera. I took my brand new Sony a6000 on vacation and learned along the way. I fiddled with the lenses on the tracks, trying to capture the whole scene backwards, and some serious buyers were initially shy. But as the journey continued and I gradually learned which lens to use and when, my shots got better. What I learned with this lens is that you need to know your distance! Once you know this and understand the…

I just received this lens today. This is a full frame lens that I am testing with the Sony A6000. I've done all sorts of tests with it, made prints with no post-processing or adjustments to review, and I can honestly say I think I've found my new favorite lens. This thing is tactful as it ranges from 70mm to 300mm. The ease of use is great. Both autofocus and manual modes are simple and accurate. It's a bit heavy and doesn't have a tripod mount, but feels good in the hand. The anti-shock…

I was very excited about the Sony E-mount TV. I used the SAL 70-300G SSM with the LA-EA1 adapter for a while and got tired of focusing manually. Being able to switch to this lens with OSS and autofocus was a big improvement. Advantages: 300 mm installed in e.g. Outstanding image quality. Full frames and crops look MUCH sharper than my previous SAL70-300SSMOSS, aided by the lack of a tripod. I can use it handheld in a variety of situations that I couldn't do without. Light or higher ISO for…

This is my first telephoto lens that I have owned and I am very happy with it. I have another Sony lens: the 90mm f2.8 macro, which is by far the sharpest lens I've ever used. This lens is not far behind. Image Quality: 10/10 The images I took are very clear, even at 300mm. The angular sharpness is really solid. Slight vignetting but easily fixable in Lightroom. Lens flare is very well controlled and I didn't notice any chromatic aberrations. I didn't notice anything that could reduce my…

This lens can be easily set as an example, it fits perfectly into its segment. I often heard the argument about the low aperture of the lens, but this is not a portrait lens, its focal length and aperture allow you to take great pictures while traveling. The stabilizer has shown excellent performance in practice Has pros: Universal focal length for shooting various objects and people at long distances. Comfortable ergonomics, soft and smooth stroke of the focal length ring. Dust and moisture…

We bought this lens to shoot competitions of our children and take pictures in the open air. The lens adequately performs its work, focuses very quickly on any focal length, handheld shooting is practically flawless. There is a switching mode for macro photography, in this mode, not only small objects, but also portraits are good. Pros: Interesting focal length 70-300 for full frame, quality stabilization, macro mode, weather protection With its cons. I've been using it for a while now and I…

My favorite lens. For many staffers 24-70, but I prefer to work with long focal lengths, so 70-300 is my choice. If you're choosing between it and the 70200G, forget about the latter, it's just a piece of g. If you're thinking about the 100400GM, it's a good alternative, but heavier and more expensive. Got pros: Amazing stabilization, no problem shooting sharp shots at the long end handheld up to 1/10 of a second. In terms of sharpness, it is in no way inferior to the GM line. Compared with…
