The 400-800mm can also be mentioned to characteristic a full-time DMF change, together with inside zoom, optical stabilization, and assist for teleconverters. As for the 16mm f/1.8; that may allegedly use the identical linear focussing motor as beforehand featured in Sony’s 14mm F1.8 G Grasp lens, and its optical stack reportedly consists of aspherical and extra-low dispersion glass.
The Euro pricing for every lens is supposedly correct, however there’s at present no info on what US and UK pricing could also be. We won’t independently confirm the supply of this leak, however at this late stage earlier than the alleged formal launch, it might appears believable that a lot – if not all – of those specs might nicely be appropriate.
