• Hands-on report
• Press release:

Key Features of the FE 400mm F4.5 GM OSS and FE 600mm F6.3 GM OSS

Lightweight, Compact Design with Excellent Handling for Super-Telephoto Shooting

The FE 400mm F4.5 GM OSS measures approximately 108 mm in maximum diameter and 242 mm in length; the FE 600mm F6.3 GM OSS measures approximately 108 mm in maximum diameter and 263 mm in length. Those compact dimensions aid portability and give you comfortable handling and control during handheld shooting.

A weight balance that shifts the center of gravity closer to the camera body makes it easier to hold framing on a subject, track moving subjects, and pan. The lightweight design adds flexibility to super-telephoto work, particularly when searching for subjects handheld in environments where a tripod or monopod is difficult to use, and during long handheld sessions.

High Resolution and Beautiful Bokeh Characteristics of G Master

The latest optical design incorporates three Super ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements and one ED glass element, suppressing chromatic aberration and other aberrations that commonly occur at super-telephoto focal lengths and delivering high resolution from the center of the image to the edges.

Sony’s proprietary Nano AR Coating II reduces ghosting and flare in backlit conditions for clear, crisp imagery.

An 11-blade circular aperture and optimization of spherical aberration during both design and manufacturing achieve the smooth bokeh characteristics of G Master.

Fast, Precise, and Quiet Auto Focus Performance and Optical Image Stabilization for Stable Super-Telephoto Shooting

Two XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors and a control algorithm optimized specifically for these lenses deliver fast, precise, and quiet AF, for reliable tracking of fast-moving subjects such as birds, wildlife, and sports. Both lenses are fully compatible with α9 III continuous shooting at up to 120 fps with AF/AE tracking.³

Built-in optical image stabilization reduces camera shake during handheld shooting at super-telephoto focal lengths.

The lenses also support the camera body’s Active Mode image stabilization and coordinated image stabilization control,⁴ for high-quality stills and movies with reduced blur when shooting handheld. They support the camera body’s breathing compensation function,⁵ which corrects changes in angle of view caused by shifts in focus position during movie recording.

Operability, Reliability, and Expandability for Super-Telephoto Photography

Four customizable focus hold buttons sit around the lens barrel.

A function ring, focus range limiter, Full-time DMF switch, focus mode switch, and image stabilization mode switch support intuitive operation across shooting styles.

With Sony’s optional teleconverters,⁶ the FE 400mm F4.5 GM OSS reaches focal lengths up to 800 mm and the FE 600mm F6.3 GM OSS up to 1200 mm.

A dust and moisture resistant design⁷ and a fluorine coating on the front element that resists contaminants support use in a range of outdoor environments.

3 Legged Thing launched a new modular, tactical tripod system on Kickstarter. The project has already raised $63,256 of a $13,499 goal with 27 more days to go.

Additional information on the new 3 Legged Thing tripod system:

• Ultimate Modularity: Almost every component is interchangeable. You can swap out the legs, canopies, flat plates, rings, heads, and feet to build a custom setup for your specific shoot, eliminating the need to own separate tabletop, travel, or studio tripods.
• Two Core Canopies:
  • James: Built for portability with a slim profile that fits easily into a camera bag’s water bottle pocket.
  • Jason: Designed for maximum strength, stability, and additional mounting features.
• High Payload Capacity: Despite their portability, both base canopies can handle heavy camera rigs up to 30 kg (66 lbs).
• Three Carbon Fiber Leg Options:
  • 5-Section: The most compact for travel, folding down to 16.7 inches.
  • 4-Section: A happy medium balancing folded length and overall height.
  • 3-Section: The sturdiest option, prioritizing maximum height (up to 60.6 inches) and stability.
• Multi-use Legs: Individual legs can be detached from the canopy to function as standard monopods or lightweight boom poles for lighting and audio.
• Glove-Friendly Adjustments: Features a new trigger-pull latch design that makes it easy to adjust the leg angles for a wider stance or low-angle shots, even if you are wearing thick gloves.
• Airhed Orbit Ball Head: Debuts a newly designed ball-style head that uses just one main control knob to intuitively level, adjust, and lock the camera into place.
• Tabletop Conversion: By removing the primary legs, you can attach the interchangeable feet directly to the canopy to create an ultra-sturdy, low-profile tabletop mini tripod.
• Easy Maintenance: Because the system is entirely modular and breaks down into separate pieces, it is exceptionally easy to clean out dirt, sand, and grit after shooting in harsh environments.

Also now on Kickstarter  – the new Brightin Star APO M 35mm f/1.7 ASPH lens (more info):

New Full-Frame Lenses on Show

At IBC2026, Viltrox will showcase new Air Series and Pro Series lenses, expanding its full-frame portfolio. These include the Viltrox AF 14mm F4.0 L, Viltrox AF 20mm F2.8 L, Viltrox AF 40mm F2.5 L, and Viltrox AF 50mm F2.0 L, adding four new focal lengths to the L-Mount system to give creators the opportunity to experience the series on their preferred camera system. From expansive scenes and architectural spaces to travel, vlogging, everyday shooting, and portraits, the four focal lengths offer versatile options for a wide range of visual storytelling.

In addition, the Viltrox 35mm F1.4 Pro is a highly anticipated addition to the Viltrox Pro Series, combining high-level image quality, meticulous craftsmanship, and a bright F1.4 aperture in one highly versatile focal length.

Two New APS-C Pro Series Lenses Deliver New Creative Potential

Viltrox will also introduce the new Viltrox 18mm F1.2 Pro and Viltrox 40mm F1.2 Pro to its Pro Series of APS-C lenses.

The Viltrox 18mm F1.2 Pro provides a broad perspective while maintaining the creative possibilities of a bright F1.2 aperture, while the Viltrox 40mm F1.2 Pro takes a more focused approach, combining a versatile perspective with an ultra-bright F1.2 aperture. Together, they allow creators to explore subject isolation, depth, and a more intimate relationship between the subject and the frame.

Beyond the Lens: New Tools that Support the Creative Process

Beyond optics, Viltrox is introducing new tools designed to support other essential stages of the creative process. This includes a new high-power flash that expands Viltrox’s imaging portfolio, giving creators greater lighting capability and flexibility, and providing another tool to help transform an initial idea into a finished image.

For modern video-production workflows, the new Viltrox DC-X4 camera monitor will also debut. Its larger, more practical production view provides greater control over composition, focus, exposure, and the overall image.

• Additional information:

Insta360 Launches Luna Pro: Leica Co-Engineered Gimbal Camera for Everyday Vlogging

Designed around the needs of today’s lifestyle creators, Luna Pro combines high-end imaging with a fast, flexible approach to content creation. Native 4K Vertical Video makes it easy to capture high-quality content for short-form platforms, while AI-powered tracking, intuitive controls, and streamlined editing help creators work quickly when shooting solo or on the move.

A Leica Summicron lens, 1-inch 8K sensor, 8K Dolby Vision video, 10-bit I-Log, and built-in timecode give Luna Pro the imaging quality and workflow tools to take on more demanding creative projects as well.

Luna Pro is available starting September 10 via the Insta360 Store, Amazon, and select retailers worldwide. Pricing for the Standard Bundle starts at US$599.99.

Professional Imaging

• Luna Pro pairs a Leica Summicron lens with a 1-inch 8K sensor for exceptional detail and strong low-light performance.
• Its Dual AI Chip architecture combines a dedicated imaging chip with a 4nm flagship chip, providing the processing power needed for advanced imaging and intelligent shooting features.
• For creators producing short-form content, Luna Pro supports native 4K30fps Vertical Video with 6K oversampling for greater clarity and detail. Rotate the touchscreen to switch orientation and start shooting vertical content in 4K.
• Luna Pro also records 8K Dolby Vision video for rich detail, color, and dynamic range. For slow motion capture, it supports 4K120fps and 1080p240fps recording.
• Up to 2× lossless zoom and 4× HighRes Zoom give creators more freedom to reframe or get closer to distant subjects, with AI-powered enhancement helping preserve image clarity at higher zoom levels.

Smooth, Flexible Shooting

• Luna Pro’s 3-axis stabilization keeps footage smooth and steady, while AI-powered Deep Track and Rapid Focus help keep moving subjects sharp and in frame.
• The detachable 2-inch OLED touchscreen makes it easier to compose and monitor shots from different angles. Slide-to-start recording and twist-to-shoot controls also reduce the time between picking up the camera and getting the shot.
• With up to 4 hours of battery life and 47GB of built-in storage, Luna Pro is equipped for longer shooting sessions without frequent charging or storage changes. It also connects directly to the Insta360 Mic Series for high-quality wireless audio capture.

More Ways to Create

• The POV Head Tracker opens up new possibilities for immersive first-person content, while NFC lets compatible phones connect to the Insta360 app with a simple tap for faster access to files and editing.
• Luna Pro also offers Leica color profiles including Leica Natural, Leica Vivid, and Leica Chrome, alongside a range of cinematic filters for distinctive looks straight out of the camera.
• For creators who want more control in post-production, 10-bit I-Log preserves more color information and highlight and shadow detail, with support for ACES workflows for professional color grading.
• Built-in timecode simplifies synchronization in multi-camera productions and integrates into workflows using Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere Pro. AI-powered editing tools in the Insta360 app can also turn footage into polished content, particularly when speed matters.

Ricoh announced that it is developing an entirely new concept for Pentax DSLR K-mount cameras – here is a recap of the official announcement:

• Ricoh Imaging thanks customers for long-term support of its K-mount digital SLRs.
• Brief history: *ist D (2003) → K100D with in-body sensor-shift SR (2006) → K-1, first full-frame model (2016).
• The company says it is reexamining “the value of taking photographs” and wants products that let more people enjoy the process of photography, not just the result.
• A new series of digital SLR cameras is in development, based on an entirely new concept, while still using the K-mount legacy built over more than 50 years.
• These products will take time; Ricoh will share progress updates when information is ready.
• Production of the current K-series digital SLRs will be discontinued as part of the transition.
• Ricoh says it will keep pursuing an SLR-specific shooting style and wants cameras that work for both existing enthusiasts and people just starting out.
• Positioning: cameras should be more than image-capture tools – they should enrich the experience of photographing.
