I personally welcomed the announcement of the Sony FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 G OSS lens. Tamron helped create a huge market for the “affordable super-telephoto” class of lenses when it released the 150-600mm F5-6.3 VC USD back at the beginning of 2014. Many amateur photographers will never be able to afford the supertelephoto prime lenses from Sony, Canon, or Nikon that often cost $8000-14,000, so to have a competent lens with a lot of reach is a huge deal. This Sony option has a slightly more restricted focal range (starting at 200mm rather than 150mm), and a slightly smaller maximum aperture (starting at F5.6 rather than F5), but it is a more competent lens than any of the other lenses I have used. It really sings on my Sony a9 body, and I’ve had more fun using it than any of the similar lenses before because the autofocus combination feels almost like cheating…in the best sort of way! You’ll be seeing more action shots than usual in my gallery! I’ll be reviewing the FE 200-600mm F5.6-6.3 on my Sony a7RIII and Sony a9 bodies, and you can see photos from both cameras below. Stay tuned for my ongoing coverage.
