This morning, I told you that I was back after undergoing treatment that forced me to stay offline for three days. I couldn’t get in touch with my sources, but now I have good news: both the 600mm f/6.3 and the 400mm f/4.5 will be announced soon, so don’t worry.

And a source has just shared this first image of the 400mm lens with me for you. 😉

As you can see it has bit of a 300mm GM vibe without the drop in filter option. What do you think about this?

Preorders will open soon:

We got the pricing for Europe:

• Sony 400mm GM for 3000€ (+-) just like the Nikkor lens
• Sony 600mm GM for 4200€ (+-) 300 Euro less than the Nikkor lens
• Sony 8-14mm G for 1.700€ (+-)

Thanks to the source for that info! I think the price is ok for that kind of lens! It’s as expensive or cheaper than the equivalent Nikkor lens. But it’s also much lighter and I suspect also optically superior!

On Fredmiranda somebody spilled out the info about the Sony announcement. Within 2/3 weeks Sony will announce these three lenses:

• Sony FE 600mm f/6.3 GM OSS around $3,800 (995g, 108 x 263mm)
• Sony FE 400mm f/4.5 GM OSS $2,699 – $2,899 (994g, 108 x 242mm)
• Sony 8-14mm f/3.5 fisheye around $1,499

Here you can see how much lighter they are compared with other Sony lenses:

The real interesting comparison has to be made with the Nikkor lenses:

So, both Sony lenses will be lighter and more affordable than their Nikkor equivalents! The Sony 400mm GM is expected to cost around $500 less, while the 600mm GM could be approximately $1,300 cheaper. However, I’m still a little skeptical about the pricing information. It sounds too good to be true, and it’s possible that the source was referring to the wholesale price.

At last we are also going to get the Sony 8-14mm f/3.5 for around $1,499. But this is a fisheye zoom and honestly I couldn’t care less about this one 🙂

Overall that’s going to be a great release from Sony. What do you think?
