Crazy wild rumor about a new 400-800mm f/8.0 GM lens

December 27, 2024
rumors

Guys, it’s vacation time and I need a break. So I figured I’d take the chance to post this crazy rumor I received from an anonymous source. I give it 0.000001% that it’s true. And I wonder why such a lens makes any sense at all! The “source” wrote:

The zoom lens is a FE 400-800 with large aperture values such as F8, I have seen it being used in the wild. Best Wishes.

For sure this would be a novice as nobody ever did something like this. But f/8.0 constant aperture? Would that be even interesting for someone?

The first Sony A7 camera was announced in October 2013. In 11 years, the body has grown in size and compared with the new Sony a1II it is now:

2,5mm taller
9,2mm wider
24,7mm thicker (mainly due the larger grip)
The A7 weight was 474g while the Sony a1II weight is now 658g
