A compact, full-frame super-telephoto 500mm that breaks convention. The 150-500mm F5-6.7 lens covers the super-telephoto range of 500mm, yet is incredibly compact, measuring just 212.3mm in length and 93mm in maximum diameter. Even when extended to the 500mm telephoto end, its length is only approximately 287.3mm, making it highly portable. *Equivalent focal length when used with an APS-C mirrorless camera: 225-750mm.
Uncompromising imaging performance. The lens construction features 25 elements in 16 groups. The generous and effective use of one special glass element, XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion), five LD (Low Dispersion) elements, and two hybrid aspherical lenses thoroughly suppresses axial chromatic aberration and other aberrations. Enjoy exceptionally high resolution across the entire frame.
The VXD150-500mm F5-6.7 lens features a VXD linear motor focus mechanism, delivering exceptional speed, precision, and quiet operation. It operates with exceptional speed and precision, ensuring exceptional responsiveness. Even at the 500mm focal length, ultra-telephoto shooting is possible, from close-up to distant subjects, with effortless and comfortable focusing. Its excellent focus tracking also allows for swift response to a variety of shooting situations. Compared to conventional drive systems, linear motors generate less vibration during AF drive and are quieter, making them ideal for still photography and video shooting in quiet environments. The 150-500mm F5-6.7 features a VC image stabilization mechanism* that delivers superior compensation, helping to create more stable images. It effectively reduces blurring caused by camera shake. Its VC function is effective not only for handheld shooting without a tripod, but also in low-light situations such as sunsets and indoors. *For the 150-500mm F5-6.7 (Model A057) for Z-mount, VC must be switched on and off on the camera. Superior close-up shooting capabilities for telemacro photography: The 150-500mm F5-6.7 lens boasts a minimum focusing distance of 0.6m at the wide-angle end and 1.8m at the telephoto end, demonstrating its superior close-up capabilities as an ultra-telephoto lens. In particular, the maximum magnification ratio at the wide-angle end is high at 1:3.1, allowing you to enjoy impressive telemacro photography while maintaining an appropriate shooting distance from the subject. Various features for convenience: Lens hood with protective rubber, 75° zoom ring rotation angle, flex zoom lock mechanism, slide switch for excellent operability, Arca-Swiss compatible tripod mount with strap hole, linear/non-linear switching switch for convenient manual focusing. BBAR-G2 (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection Generation 2) coating to suppress ghosting and flare. Moisture-resistant construction and dirt-resistant coating for comfortable shooting.
