The 300mm GM lens page at BHphoto

Sony photographers Nick Didlick and Bob Martin shared the first three images shot on the upcoming 300mm f/2.8 GM lens.

And in a comment of one of his photos he said that the 300mm GM is “worth the wait” !

300mm GM Product page text from BHphoto:

A new FE 300mm f/2.8 GM OSS Lens from Sony is under development and will feature the incredible high-resolution and spectacularly beautiful bokeh true to Sony’s acclaimed line of flagship G Master lenses. Made for the Sony E-mount, this lens will deliver an elevated shooting experience for professional sports, news and event photographers, and videographers looking to capture decisive moments with higher image quality. The lens will expand on the design of the 600mm f/4 and the 400mm f/2.8 Grand Master OSS lenses.

Adobe Camera RAW now added the support for following new E-mount gear:

• Sony A6700
• Sony 70-200mm GII
• Viltrox 16mm (my full review of this lens on youtube).

Dear source, can you send me the video of this “leak”? I promise I will NOT post it on SAR, but I need it as proof that indeed this is the new CAMERA :)

OR just send me screenshots of the camera only!

You can also contact me directly at sonyalpharumors@gmail.com

Asobinet leaked the first images of the ZF. This will appeal photographers that want to carry with them a more “classic” looking cameras. In that sense it is also a sort of A7cII/A7cR competitor whish should appeal to the same kind of photographers.
