Delivering high-performance super-telephoto capabilities, this lens is designed for use with FX-format Z-mount mirrorless cameras.

The lens features a wide zoom range, starting at a wide angle for easily locating your subject and extending to 600mm for tight framing and beautiful background compression. With just a 70° turn of the zoom ring, you can swiftly adjust the focal length and composition to suit your creative vision.

To enhance your shooting experience, the lens offers a customizable control ring and function buttons, providing intuitive control for quickly adjusting exposure settings and accessing various functions. This allows for seamless operation and efficient workflow in the field.

Included with the lens are a quick-release tripod foot and a strap eyelet, providing convenience and stability when mounting the lens on a tripod or carrying it during extended shooting sessions.

Aurora U. ★★★★★

I was skeptical about handholding a lens this long, but the VR makes it feel like a monopod. Caught a heron mid-dive at 600mm and the autofocus never lost it, even with the f/6.3 aperture wide open.

Abigail ★★★★★

The zoom ring is buttery smooth, and the VR really locks onto distant birds even at 600mm. I’ve gotten tack-sharp shots of herons from across a lake that I never could’ve pulled off with my old gear.

Emily ★★★★★

I was worried about hand-holding such a long lens, but the zoom ring is so smooth and well-damped that I can easily adjust focal lengths without losing my composition. The sharpness at 600mm really surprised me for a zoom in this range.
