SEL200600G

I recently purchased the Sony 200-600mm lens and I must say it’s truly best in its class. The image quality is outstanding, with sharp details and beautiful colors even at long focal lengths. It’s perfect for wildlife photography—I was able to capture some amazing shots of birds and animals with incredible clarity. The autofocus is fast and accurate, making it easy to track subjects in motion. Build quality feels solid yet smooth to handle. Definitely one of the best investments for any serious photographer. Highly recommend this lens!

Delivered in 48 hours (quite pleasantly surprised, in time for Diwali). It’s been 2 days and I haven’t done serious wildlife or any fast-event photography yet (the main purpose of my purchase) - so a very preliminary view. I use a Sony A7iii and have been shooting with native Sony/GM lenses only (24-105/f4, 85/f.18 and 70-300). Pros: 1. In reasonable light, this lens is just brilliant, in fact among the very top-of-line lenses. Sweet spot is between f8-f11, the lens really brings the pictures ‘alive’. 2. Focus, though not the fastest, is quick enough (shot some in dusk - at 600mm, wide open - and didn’t have problem at all) Cons: 1. Heavy. Hand-held (which i do) may be impossible for long shooting sessions or when you are in a walkabout. Have ordered a sturdy monopod, just for this. The picture of the flower attached - at 400mm/f8/ss320/ISO200 - was from a physical distance of roughly 200 meters. No post-processing - straight off the camera JPEG! Taken during the early evening hours when the sun was just going down. The real adventure with this lens will perhaps begin only when travel becomes less riskier...for now will shoot birds in the garden :)

I just used this lens for only 6 days and this is a fantastic lens giving sharp images.

It's doing its job perfectly

Lens is heavy. i have Sony mirrorless camera. I used to carry my 16mm and 200mm lenses in a pouch but i can't do the same with 600 mm lens. it definitely needs a backpack. couldn't hold the lens in hand for more than 5 mins. feels heavy

Needs a bit of practice before using it for field operations ( safari, bird watching) Read the tutorials of using the focal lengths, modes and button customisation and try out few of them with your camera. Unmatched clarity for long range shots

Lens for birding and wildlife photography. Quick autofocus. Impressive sharp photos. Only significant drawback is it's weight for handheld photography.

Fast zoom, perfect range and beautiful picture quality. Absolutely no regrets. I love using it.

The hype is real. The lens is of fantastic build quality and offers great sharpness, it's not a cheap lens but it is one of the cheaper options for a telephoto lens on a full frame sony camera. Autofocus is fast and reliable. The downsides are the weight as it's relatively heavy and obviously it's very large. That being said i'm more than happy with my purchase, managed to take this photo on my first outing with the lens.

Es un zoom que ofrece una gran calidad y es muy versátil. Foto deportiva, fauna, nocturna, y por el zoom las posibilidades de hacer fotografías de perspectivas diferentes. Es una muy buena opción de compra.

The lens can be hand held at 600 mm and still get sharp photos. Long lenses normally require a solid and heavy tripod to gets sharp photos. The internal mechanism cancels out any shake. This is ideal for taking wildlife photography.

Great quality super telephoto zoom. I love the fact that it doesn't extend while zooming. Great sharpness and handling.
