Overview

The Sony FE 100 mm f/2.8 Macro GM Lens with 2× Teleconverter combines Sony’s first true G Master macro lens with the high-performance FE 2× Teleconverter, delivering outstanding image quality, greater-than-life-size magnification, and professional-grade control. Designed for full-frame Sony E-mount cameras, this pairing provides exceptional detail, precision, and stabilization for macro, portrait, wildlife, and studio photography.

Becoming the first proper macro in the renowned G Master line, the Sony FE 100 mm f/2.8 Macro GM Lens offers outstanding image quality, a greater-than-life-size 1.4× maximum magnification, and an array of physical controls and dials to improve the close-up photography experience. The medium-telephoto prime also serves as a general-purpose lens in a photographer’s toolkit with built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization to benefit handheld shooting when working on location or in the studio for portraits, weddings, and more.

Advanced Close-Up Shooting

Boasting a greater-than-life-size 1.4× maximum magnification, this macro lens delivers excellent close-up shooting capabilities. The minimum focus distance of 26 cm enables macro capture with remarkable detail, and the intuitive manual and autofocus controls make it ideal for technical or creative work.

• 1.4× maximum magnification for extreme close-up capability
• Minimum focus distance of 26 cm with 3.5 cm working distance
• Sliding focus ring enables instant switching between manual and autofocus modes
• Focus distance and magnification scale printed on lens barrel for precision focus control
• Focus range limiter switch allows ranges of 26–70 cm, 50 cm to ∞, or full range for faster AF performance
• Compatible with separately available teleconverters to achieve magnification up to 2.8×

G Master Optical Quality

Being the first proper macro lens to join the G Master line, the FE 100 mm f/2.8 Macro GM Lens features Sony’s most advanced optical technologies to deliver sharp, detailed imagery with pleasing bokeh.

• Advanced optical design minimizes chromatic, spherical, and field aberrations
• Nano AR Coating II suppresses internal reflections for improved contrast
• Internal focusing ensures a consistent lens length across the focus range
• Floating focus design enables compactness and optimized sharpness at all distances
• 11-blade circular aperture diaphragm produces smooth, rounded bokeh

Autofocus and Image Stabilization

Packed with advanced lens technologies, the FE 100 mm Macro GM comes equipped with a fast and accurate autofocus system and built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization. Four near-silent XD Linear Motors deliver speeds up to 1.9× faster than the FE 90 mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS and maintain compatibility with 120 fps burst shooting on the α9 III and 4K 120 p recording modes.

• Four XD Linear AF motors for rapid, near-silent autofocus
• Floating focus system minimizes aberrations and maintains compact size
• Internal focus maintains constant length during focusing
• Optical SteadyShot stabilization optimized for macro distances
• Supports coordinated body-lens stabilization for maximum correction

Advanced Controls and Ergonomics

This lens provides photographers with comprehensive physical controls for intuitive operation in the field. The tactile aperture ring, switches, and focus hold buttons enable smooth adjustments without leaving the viewfinder.

• Focus range limiter for faster AF performance
• Sliding manual focus ring toggles AF/MF instantly
• Printed distance and magnification scales for technical precision
• Physical aperture ring with de-click switch for video
• Iris lock switch prevents accidental aperture shifts
• Full-time DMF switch enables Direct Manual Focus
• SteadyShot switch toggles optical stabilization
• Two focus hold buttons for custom assignments
• Dust- and moisture-resistant design with fluorine-coated front element
• Includes ALC-SH173 Lens Hood for flare reduction

FE 2× Teleconverter Overview

The Sony FE 2× Teleconverter extends the effective focal length of select Sony E-mount telephoto lenses, including the FE 100 mm Macro GM, by 2× for a narrower field of view and greater magnification. The dedicated optical design preserves full communication between lens and camera for autofocus, auto-exposure, and Optical SteadyShot stabilization. It is built to professional standards with dust- and moisture-resistant construction for reliable outdoor performance.

• Doubles the effective focal length of compatible lenses
• 2× magnification for significantly increased reach and macro detail
• Maintains full AF, AE, and OSS functionality
• 2-stop light loss (f/2.8 → f/5.6 maximum aperture)
• Dust- and moisture-resistant for field reliability
• Optical design: 8 elements in 5 groups
• Compact size (42.7 mm length × 63.5 mm diameter)
• Lightweight design at 207 g
• Compatible lenses: FE 70-200 mm f/2.8 GM OSS, FE 70-200 mm f/2.8 GM OSS II, FE 70-200 mm f/4 Macro G 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

Enhanced Macro Performance with 2× Teleconverter

When used with the FE 100 mm f/2.8 Macro GM, the FE 2× Teleconverter extends the focal length to 200 mm and enables up to 2.8× maximum magnification. The additional working distance is ideal for lighting setup or photographing sensitive subjects such as insects without disturbance, while maintaining the lens’s optical clarity and autofocus precision.
