Sony FE 100mm f/2.8 STF GM OSS Lens

1.4x max. magnification in Sony's first1 G Master™ macro lens

This versatile 100 mm macro lens offers up to 1.4x magnification, or up to 2.8x with an optional teleconverter2. G Master resolution and bokeh contribute to impressive macro captures, while advanced stabilisation and macro-optimized operability deliver unprecedented macro potential for stills and movies. Flowers, insects, and other subjects come alive with normally hidden detail.

Up to 1.4x magnification, or 2.8x with optional teleconverter2

Magnification higher than 1:1 and a 0.26 m (0.86 ft) minimum focus distance make this lens ideal for macro photography. Close-up capability with high magnification makes it possible to capture barely invisible details from fresh perspectives. Teleconverter2 support enables up to 2.8x magnification that can reveal new levels of detail and texture while providing ample working distance for a wide range of subjects.

Breathtaking G Master resolution and bokeh

Advanced optical design optimizes element layout while floating focus minimises aberration variations that are common in macro lenses for high resolution even in extreme close-ups. Nano AR Coating II boosts contrast and clarity by suppressing flare and ghosting. An F2.8 aperture, two XA (extreme aspherical) elements, two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements, and an 11-blade aperture add up to gorgeous G Master bokeh.

Refined optical image stabilisation minimises macro shake

This superb lens features optical image stabilisation that has been carefully tuned for macro shooting where sharpness is critical, including a new control system that delivers improved angle, shift, and depth control for precise, reliable handheld macro stabilisation3. Compatible α bodies4 additionally enable lens-body communication that enhances stabilisation for both stills and movies (Active Mode).

Fast, precise, quiet AF keeps the creativity flowing

Four XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors drive the floating focus group for up to 1.9x faster AF5 over a wide range in the AF-S mode. Tracking is excellent too, making it easier to shoot fast-moving macro subjects such as bees on flowers. This system easily keeps up with the 120 fps6 maximum speed of the α9 III. Focus drive is quiet too, so focus noise won’t intrude on the audio track when shooting video.

Extra durability and reliability for challenging outdoor conditions

Silicone gaskets around all buttons and switches, a rubber ring seal for the lens mount, and other refinements constitute an effective dust and moisture resistant design7 that maximizes reliability in challenging outdoor conditions. The front lens element has a fluorine coating that repels contaminants and makes them easy to wipe away if they do become attached to the lens surface.
