Product Description
1.4x max. magnification in Sony’s first2 G Master™ macro lens
This versatile 100 mm macro lens offers up to 1.4x magnification, or up to 2.8x with an optional teleconverter3. G Master resolution and bokeh contribute to impressive macro captures, while advanced stabilization and macro-optimized operability deliver unprecedented macro potential for stills and movies. Flowers, insects, and other subjects come alive with normally hidden detail.
Magnification higher than 1:1 and a 0.86 ft (0.26 m) 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. Teleconverter3 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.
Advanced optical design optimizes element layout while floating focus minimizes 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 stabilization minimizes macro shake
This superb lens features optical image stabilization 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 stabilization4. Compatible α bodies5 additionally enable lens-body communication that enhances stabilization for both stills and movies (Active Mode).

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 design8 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.
