FEATURES



This new 600mm super telephoto lens is equipped with an Image Stabilizer system and has a large aperture of f/4, providing the finest image performance in its class. It offers reliable capabilities when used to photograph wild animals or field sports. The optical system includes one fluorite lens element and two UD lens elements that eliminate secondary spectrum, resulting in a level of image quality with high contrast previously impossible to attain. With its improved drive algorithm, its autofocus is the fastest in the world*1. The closest focusing distance has been reduced to 5.5m / 18ft. In addition to using a full-time mechanical manual focus and an AF stop function, the focus preset and other features were improved to make it easier to use. The use of a magnesium alloy for its principal parts has reduced its weight, making holding and mobility better than ever. It offers superior dust-proof and drip-proof*2 performance for outstanding photography in the field.
