Birding? It's a must purchase.

Excellent lens, coupled with the resolving power of the A1 Mk2. This is a walk around all day lens very light unlike the 400mm or 600mm primes I find autofocus and lock on speed exceptionally good and in my case used without the 1.4x or 2x TC although I've seen good results I'll probably get the 1.4x

Great Lens

Took my lens for a University sports day and it nails it every time. Pairing it with the a9iii? it is insane. And for animals it's feather counting sharp.

Fantastic lens

I use this lens mainly with the 2X converter. It's light and great to use in the field, and whether used on it's own, or with either the 1.4X or the 2X converter the results are brilliant.

It was the Missing link

Sharpness is superior on this lens. Fast focusing and combined with the 1.4 teleconverter its perfect for a wide variety of photographic needs. I already own the 100-400 gm as well. Now i have a converter for that lense as well. Im loving it. Well worth the money.

Excellent Lens

This thing is a beast and I use it for sports, Soccer, Football, LaCrosse and from the outfield for softball. You need to be in a place, when action comes st you, many times it gets too close but when you are properly distant, it's a wicked lens. I use it for individual portraits as well, but you need to be back of course.

Stunning Piece Of Kit

This is the best lens i have bought to date,so user friendly.light weight and a fantastic piece of engineering,It does work excellently well with both teleconverters especially the x2,i'm using it hand held with this converter for birds in flight and i'm getting instant lock on and tracking,The lens is so fast it's unreal,and the picture quality is sharp corner to corner,,at 2.8 the images are very sharp with excellent seperation and a lovely bokeh,,,well done Sony this will take some beating.

Superb image quality

Bought this for my nature and wildlife photography.Absolute superb images from a world class lens.When paired with the 2x teleconverter gives that extra reach without loss of quality.Weight and balance also invaluable for use in the field without the need for a monopod.One word Stunning!

Unbelievable!!

I bought this new about a month ago and all I can say is wow!! Sharp, sharp?.SHARP! There is absolutely no drop off when using either the 1.4 or 2.0 teleconverters. Glad I have this in my arsenal now.

Most perfect birding glass I've used for the wild

They really got everything right on this one. A weight and balance you can carry all day, stellar sharpness, and terrific AF response and sharpness even with teleconverters. This is the whole package for someone who wants outstanding quality in a wildlife package that doesn't require a tripod or body building. An absolute joy. I started bird photography 20 years ago with a 300/F4 plus 1.4x converter (420mm/5.6) as my favorite on a crop sensor. It was sharp and I didn't hesitate to carry it on long hikes. After decades of 10 pound primes and 5 pound zooms, which kept me from straying to far from the truck, I'm back to a 300, but now at F/2.8, which with a 2X converter opens a high quality 600mm/5.6 option that performs better for me than the 200-600 ever did at half the weight. Slightly better and a stop faster at 420mm/F4, (1.4x) than the FE 100-400 GM at 400 and better and slightly faster than 200-600 at 600 (2x). And then there is 300mm/2.8 for shots under a dark forest canopy without the12,800 ISO I found too often using the zooms at wildlife shutter speeds. With the cropping room on the A1 and A7R5, the fast, razor-sharp 300mm is still extremely useful for wildlife. The only issue is price, which is more than the two long zooms combined, but selling one or both will ease the pain.

Dream come true

I always use my Nikon Afs 328 to take portrait and sports. But I need to put it on the monopod due to the heavy weight. Now I can handheld the Sony 328 with minimum effort. This light weight is unbelievable in before. Hope that Sony can introduce more fantastic lens that are same technology breakthrough.

I cannot believe this is a 300!

This lens is as light as a feather. Using it all day handheld is a dream and the use with which I can assign a button to ASP-C and get that extra reach, it just makes the experience all the more complete.

What a Fantastic 300mm lens

I purchased the Sony 300mm F2.8 from B&H about a month ago. This is a super tack sharp lens, practically instant focus speeds and the Bokeh is amazing. The photo's that come from this lens is better than all the other Sony lens I use including the Sony 135mm, Sony 50mm F1.2, Sony 24mm, 35mm, 100-400mm etc. It is a dream to own one of these and I am so glad I purchased it.

Best 300 I've owned

Super fast focus. Incredibly light weight. Sharpest 300mm f2.8 I have ever owned. The lens cover bulky and is a challenge to work with. I ultimately had to seek out a 3rd part lens cap. Still no Arca Swiss type grooves on these Sony tripod feet. The only attachment point for a strap is on the tripod foot. The foot is removable, but I can't see any situation you would take it off, due to it being the only attachment point for a strap. If Sony comes up with a better lens cover and adds the Arca groves to the foot, it gets 5 stars.

Super light weight tele

I have owned this lens for about a month, and I use it primarily for bird photography with and without converters, it is very light and easily hand holdable and it produces superb images coupled with the A1.

Refined to perfection.

Super quick, super lightweight and super sharp, the perfect combination making for an outstanding lens. Unfortunately it's super expensive too but this kind of quality doesn't come cheap and rightly so.

Wow?.just wow!

This is my first high end prime lens and I wasn't sure what to expect. This is much lighter and smaller than the 400mm I had tried at a demo day. I did a whole 90 Minute football match hand holding and had no issues with the weight at all. The image quality is excellent- very sharp when paired with a Sony a1 despite the less than ideal weather conditions on my first trip out. Has a function ring which can be assigned to the crop option which I found very handy. Usual GM lens buttons and options otherwise. I hadn't realised that large primes don't come with a lens cap, but a lens hood- I think given this lens is so small a lens cap might have actually been a good idea. I can't fault the lens and look forward to creating many happy memories with it.

This lens is as light as a feather. Using it all day handheld is a dream and the use with which I can assign a button to ASP-C and get that extra reach, it just makes the experience all the more complete.

You are looking at the Sony FE 300mm f/2.8 GM OSS Lens, a remarkable piece of optical engineering that stands as the lightest large-aperture telephoto lens in its class. Weighing just 51.9 oz (1470 grams) without the tripod mount, this lens offers exceptional optical performance and rapid, precise autofocus, making it an ideal choice for photographers who demand versatility and agility in their equipment.

Designed for optimal balance, the SEL300F28GM minimizes stress and fatigue during extended handheld shooting sessions. Its innovative optical design features three Super ED (extra-low dispersion) glass elements and one ED glass element, effectively reducing axial and lateral chromatic aberration. This ensures outstanding resolution and contrast across the entire frame, providing flexibility for cropping and editing.

The lens delivers extraordinary resolution and stunning bokeh, thanks to its 11-blade circular aperture mechanism. Each lens is individually calibrated to optimize bokeh quality, allowing subjects to stand out beautifully against a soft, creamy background. The fast, precise autofocus system, powered by two high-thrust XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors and an advanced control algorithm, enhances the lens's ability to capture dynamic sports action and fast-moving wildlife with ease.

Built-in Optical SteadyShot stabilization ensures sharp images even at telephoto focal lengths, with MODE 2 offering stabilization for panned shots and MODE 3 enhancing stability for unpredictable sports action. Sony's Nano AR Coating II minimizes reflections, flare, and ghosting, ensuring crisp, clear images even in challenging lighting conditions.

The lens features a programmable function ring for direct access to power focus or frame size selection, and Full-time Direct Manual Focus (DMF) allows for immediate manual focus adjustments even in autofocus mode. The Linear Response MF ensures precise manual focus control, while four customizable focus hold buttons and a focus range limiter switch provide additional flexibility.

Supporting rear-mounted drop-in filters, the SEL300F28GM is compatible with standard 40.5 mm diameter filters, including Sony's VF-DCPL1 circular polarizer. The lens maintains high AF tracking performance even with optional 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverters.

Built for reliability, the lens features a dust and moisture-resistant design with a durable magnesium alloy construction. A fluorine coating on the front element repels water and oil, making it easy to clean. The lens comes with an ALC-SH175 lens hood made from high-strength engineering plastic, a padded soft case for protection, and a lens strap for convenience.

This bundle includes essential accessories such as a lens wrap, lens pen cleaner, rain cover, lens cap tether, and cleaning cloth, ensuring your lens remains in pristine condition and ready for any photographic adventure.
