Sony FE 100mm f/2.8 Macro GM Lens with FE 1.4x Teleconverter Kit

Overview

The Sony FE 100mm f/2.8 Macro GM Lens with 1.4x Teleconverter combines Sony’s first true G Master macro lens with an advanced teleconverter, offering exceptional image quality, enhanced magnification, and professional control. Designed for photographers and videographers seeking the highest level of detail and clarity, this kit delivers outstanding performance for macro, portrait, and general-purpose shooting with Optical SteadyShot image stabilization and advanced autofocus technology.

Becoming the first proper macro lens in Sony’s renowned G Master line, the FE 100mm f/2.8 Macro GM Lens achieves greater-than-life-size 1.4x magnification and provides numerous physical controls and dials to enhance the close-up photography experience. The medium-telephoto prime also serves as a versatile option for handheld shooting in portrait, wedding, or studio work, supported by built-in image stabilization for sharper, steadier results.

Advanced Close-Up Shooting

Boasting a greater-than-life-size 1.4x maximum magnification, this macro lens delivers remarkable close-up capabilities and stunning fine detail reproduction. A minimum focus distance of 26 cm allows intimate framing, while the intuitive focus control system supports both technical precision and creative flexibility.

• 1.4x maximum magnification for true macro performance
• Minimum focus distance of 26 cm with 3.5 cm working distance
• Sliding focus ring for quick AF/MF selection
• Printed focus distance and magnification scale for precise manual operation
• Focus range limiter switch with selectable ranges (26–70 cm, 50 cm–∞, or full)
• Compatible with 1.4× and 2× teleconverters for up to 2.8× magnification

G Master Optical Quality

As the first true macro in the G Master series, the FE 100mm Macro GM Lens features advanced optical engineering for superior clarity, contrast, and bokeh. Its complex optical design minimizes aberrations and ensures beautiful background rendering, ideal for macro and portrait work.

• Minimized chromatic and spherical aberrations for edge-to-edge sharpness
• Nano AR Coating II suppresses flare and ghosting for maximum contrast
• Internal focus design maintains constant lens length
• Floating focus design for compactness and optical consistency
• 11-blade circular aperture diaphragm for smooth, rounded bokeh

Autofocus and Image Stabilization

Equipped with Sony’s most advanced focusing and stabilization systems, this lens provides fast, accurate, and silent autofocus with optimized Optical SteadyShot image stabilization — perfect for both photography and video applications.

• Four XD Linear Motors deliver 1.9× faster AF than the FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS
• Compatible with 120 fps burst shooting and 4K 120 p video
• Floating focus minimizes aberrations at close distances
• Internal focusing maintains constant lens length during focusing
• Advanced Optical SteadyShot optimized for close-up shooting
• Supports body-lens coordinated stabilization for maximum effect

Advanced Controls and Ergonomics

This G Master lens offers complete control through intuitive physical switches and rings, giving professionals quick access to key adjustments while maintaining a comfortable shooting experience in any environment.

• Physical aperture ring with de-click switch for smooth video transitions
• Iris lock switch prevents accidental aperture changes
• Focus hold buttons assignable to custom camera functions
• Focus mode switch for manual or autofocus selection
• Full-time DMF (Direct Manual Focus) control option
• Focus range limiter switch for faster AF response
• Dust- and moisture-resistant design for field reliability
• Fluorine-coated front element for easier cleaning and protection
• Includes ALC-SH173 lens hood to minimize flare from off-axis light

Teleconverter Compatibility

The Sony FE 1.4× Teleconverter included in this kit extends the effective focal length of compatible Sony E-mount lenses while maintaining full communication with the camera for exposure metering, autofocus, and image stabilization. Its weather-sealed construction matches the durability of G Master lenses for outdoor and field use.

When paired with the FE 100 mm f/2.8 Macro GM Lens, the teleconverter increases maximum magnification and allows photographers to achieve longer working distances without sacrificing optical quality—ideal for capturing sensitive or easily disturbed subjects such as insects or small wildlife.

• 1.4× magnification increases effective focal length to 140 mm
• Delivers up to 2× maximum magnification with the FE 100 mm Macro GM
• Maintains autofocus, metering, and Optical SteadyShot communication
• Provides longer working distances for lighting flexibility
• Dust- and moisture-resistant design for outdoor reliability
• Compatible lenses include FE 70-200 mm f/2.8 GM OSS II, FE 100-400 mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSS, FE 200-600 mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS, FE 400 mm f/2.8 GM OSS, and FE 600 mm f/4 GM OSS
