The Sony FE 400-800mm f/6.3-8 G OSS is Sony's longest-reach zoom, purpose-built for wildlife, aviation and distant sport. Internal zoom and focus keep the length constant and the balance consistent, while fast linear-motor autofocus and Optical SteadyShot help lock onto fast-moving subjects. With teleconverters it reaches all the way to 1600mm, yet the design remains manageable in the field.
