The Sony FE 100mm F2.8 Macro GM OSS is a full-frame macro prime lens for the Sony E-mount, announced by Sony on 30 September 2025.

Contents

As of Novermber 2025, the 100mm Macro lens is one of 4 E-mount lenses manufactured by Sony that are specifically designed for macro photography, with the others being the Sony FE 90mm F2.8 Macro G OSS, the Sony FE 50mm F2.8 Macro and Sony E 30mm F3.5 Macro lenses. Though designed for Sony's full frame E-mount cameras, this lens can be used on Sony's APS-C E-mount camera bodies, producing a field-of-view equivalent on full frame of 150mm.

Build quality

The lens features a weather resistant plastic exterior with a matte black finish. The lens is currently the second Sony E-mount lens to feature an external focusing ring, which can be pulled up or down relative to the lens body to switch quickly between manual and autofocus. On the side of the lens are a number of external switches controlling the lens' focusing range, image stabilization and more.

Due to internal floating elements this lens does not elongate when focusing. It sports four autofocus motors that make focusing fast and accurate on all Sony E-mount cameras.
