At a Glance

This telephoto zoom covers 50-300 mm on full-frame Sony E cameras and stays compact at 665 g. Its 1:2 magnification and 22 cm minimum focus distance allow half-macro close-ups, and an optical stabilizer is built in. It suits macro, product, sports and wildlife work, though the aperture narrows to f/6.3 at the long end.
