Fstoppers对索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头长期使用的评测！



大意是：

我是地球上最早使用该镜头的人之一，后来在2019年9月，我购买了自己的这款镜头，并从此开始更广泛使用它。

1、我喜欢什么
我为什么对这支镜头感到满意，为什么我建议对它感兴趣的其他人也应该购买这款镜头？归根结底最重要的是，我想要带着出色的图像回家。“出色的图像”当然有很多成分，该镜头贡献了我说的清晰度，分辨力，失焦质量，稳定度和自动聚焦。

One year ago today, Sony announced the FE 200-600mm super-telephoto zoom lens. I was one of the first people on the planet to use the lens before that announcement, and later in September 2019 I purchased my own copy and have used it extensively ever since.
Extensively may actually be too light of a word. The Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS is quite literally the only lens I own, and until I win the lottery to move on to the FE 600mm f/4 GM, I don’t see that changing. That does not mean, however, that it is a lens without faults; there are quite a few to be aware of that I will get into here. First, let’s start with everything that I have enjoyed day in and day out in my constant use.

What I Like
Why am I happy with this lens, and why do I recommend anyone else interested in it buy this lens too? Because above all else, at the end of the day I’m coming home with excellent images. An “excellent image” of course has many components, but when it comes down to the lens’ contribution to this I’m talking about the sharpness, resolving power, out of focus qualities, stabilization, and autofocus.

清晰度

在购买200-600mm镜头之前，我是佳能摄影师，并拥有一个大的白色500mm f / 4L镜头。但是经过测试之后，我却被200-600mm所吸引。如果追求细微的羽毛细节的话，我会使用佳能500mm f / 4L镜头。但是也就仅仅好一点而已，而且一旦您开始比较它们之间的所有其他拍摄结果和内容的时候，索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头对我来说真的很令人印象深刻。

散景

200-600mm的散景效果比其的方面表现要好得多。尽管Sony的200-600mm镜头不是GM镜头，因为仅仅是G Master的镜头才使用XA（极端非球面）镜头元件。XA镜头元件是索尼在其顶级镜头中实现散景必杀技的关键，但是由于200-600mm的焦段非常少见，我仍然对拍摄的结果感到满意。


Sharpness
Before I bought the 200-600mm, I was a Canon shooter and owned a big white 500mm f/4L lens. The sharpness of that beast was off the charts, and yet I was swayed by the 200-600mm after testing it. The overall sharpness of each lens is neck and neck, but I will give it to Canon for being able to resolve fine feather details better. But not that much better, and that’s really impressive to me once you start to compare everything else between them.

Bokeh
The out of focus qualities of the 200-600mm is much better than it has any right to be. This is not Sony’s best take on what a 200-600mm can be, otherwise it would be part of the G Master series and use the G Master-only XA (extreme aspherical) lens elements. XA lens elements are Sony’s key to bokeh nirvana in their top-of-the-line lenses, and yet with the 200-600mm missing them I‘m still plenty pleased with the results.

取景器中图像的稳定性和安全快门使用

手持600毫米镜头及其随附的视野在稳定作用开始之前就问了很多问题。使用此镜头，尤其是与许多具有内置图像稳定功能的索尼相机搭配使用时，不需要采用焦距倒数的方式，索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头会根据您的拍摄对象和拍摄快门速度和索尼机身内置图像稳定功能给你提供高质量的稳定图像。图像是静止不动则对手持相机在对快门速度方面的要求就不会太高。实际使用索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头时候可以做到的快门速度只有1/60 s。这比老办法采用焦距倒数的方式要慢10倍。

自动对焦

我从来没有在索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头上感觉到存在自动对焦问题，可是当初我曾经怀疑该镜头的自动对焦能否跟上我的使用方式（使用后我都忘记自己曾经有过这个担忧，因为我使用的Sony其他相机和镜头曾经出现过对焦和迷焦问题）。

但是需要注意的是，将索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头与FE 1.4x或FE 2x增距镜配对使用时候要从几个不同的角度来看，这些增距镜与400mm GM  和600mm GM镜头搭配使用时似乎没有负面影响。我倾向在使用附加1.4倍镜头和200-600mm镜头时，自动对焦速度开始略微变慢，而使用2倍时，自动对焦时间开始变的缓慢。但是也有惊喜，一旦对准焦点（只要运动的物体移动不是太快或太不稳定），索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头就可以很好地进行跟踪。

Stabilization
Handholding 600mm and the field of view that comes with it is asking quite a bit before the effects of stabilization kick in. With this lens, and especially paired with many Sony cameras that have in-body image stabilization too, the old shutter speed trick of “1 over your focal length” is utterly wrong. Instead, it’s replaced by shooting the shutter speed that matches your subject and your intent. If your subject is sitting still, a 1/60 s shutter speed while handheld isn’t asking too much from the gear; that’s 10 times slower than that outdated rule.

Autofocus
I’m not sure I can recall a time where I thought to myself while using this lens, “This autofocus just isn’t keeping up!” I’ve seen my Sony cameras fail at picking up subjects or get lost trying to track something, but I’ve never pinpointed an autofocus issue squarely on the lens.

The one caveat to that is when it comes to pairing it with the FE 1.4x or FE 2x teleconverters. From a few different accounts, these teleconverters seem to have no negative effects while paired with the 400mm GM and 600mm GM lenses, and therefore I’m leaning to conclude that issues the 200-600mm has with these are on the lens side. The autofocus’ time to acquire a subject begins to slow with the 1.4x attached, and comes to a crawl with the 2x. Once they are in focus, they do an OK job with tracking as long as the subject is not too fast or too erratic.

更多细节感受

索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头除了卓越的光学质量及其性能，该镜头还有一些其他脱颖而出的特点。

a、内部变焦：大大提高了镜头的质感。对我来说，变焦镜头的超级望远镜如果使用外变焦设计就真是愚蠢的想法。

b、无需工具即可轻松拆卸三脚架脚：只需松开翼形螺丝，按一下按钮，整个镜头脚就会拿下来。

c、重量和尺寸：使用它手持拍摄可以轻松自由的构图和即时获得最佳背景这些特点或许正在改变游戏规则。我还可以把这个镜头放在三脚架上（有几次）以进行一些锁定的视频拍摄，其他时候我都是始终手持拍摄。

d、价格：是的，您可以说它比150-600和尼康200-500贵。但是，索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头性价比却脱颖而出。因为，我会回答高质量的200-600比高质量的100-400更适合我的需要。

The Finer Things
Moving past the optical qualities and its performance, there are a few other components to the lens that make it stand out.

Internal zoom - This goes a long way for making the lens feel much more premium. External zoom supertelephotos just look so goofy to me.
Easily removable tripod foot with no tools - Just loosen the thumb screw, press in a button, and the whole foot slides off.
Weight and size - I’ve placed this lens on a tripod a couple times for some locked off video shots, otherwise it’s all handheld all the time. That freedom of composition and getting the best backgrounds on the fly is game changing.
Price - Yes, you could say it’s more expensive than the 150-600s and Nikon’s 200-500. However, this lens knocks the pants off those and Sony could have probably charged much more and gotten away with it based on the results. If you asked me which is going to be more expensive, a high quality 100-400 or a high quality 200-600, I would answer the latter. And I’m oh so happy to be wrong when it comes to Sony’s lineup.

2、我不喜欢的
当我说完这一天拍摄后回到家中看到我获得出色的图像以外，除了所有其他项目均与可用性或镜头设计有关以外，我仔细地考虑如何说说我不太满意的地方。除以下一项外，。因此，尽管当我爱上了索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头所拍摄的图像时，我还是会在使用之余有些让我感到烦恼的事情。在坚决拥有这款镜头的这一点上，我已经克服了使用习惯的烦恼，现在进入了“这就是它”熟悉阶段，但是我感觉您应该知道我烦恼的地方。

没有全时手动对焦功能

全时手动对焦控制意味着即使在AF模式下也可以通过转动对焦环来调整对焦。对于鸟类摄影，手动对焦很多时候其优先是很重要的。我每天外出拍摄时都会使用到手动对焦，以帮助您在树叶丛中快速对焦解决鸟的前后都有遮挡物时候的对焦问题（在录制丛林树叶中的鸟类时候自动对焦必定会失败的快速视频剪辑时使用）。

为了解决这个明显的问题，我在相机上设置了一个自定义按钮，可以在按住该按钮时切换手动对焦。这样，我不必用手指在镜头侧面摸索着控制键就可以切换物理开关，从而节省了鸟类摄影所需的宝贵时间。

What I Don’t Like
When I said that at the end of the day, I’m coming home to excellent images, I chose those words carefully. All but one of the items below have to do with usability or the design of the lens. So while I’m in love with the images that it produces, there are things that irk me on the road to capturing them. At this point of owning the lens, I’ve generally moved past the irritation and now in the “it is what it is” phase, but nonetheless here’s what you should know.

No Full-time Manual Focus Override
Full-time manual focus override means being able to adjust focus by turning the focus ring even in AF mode. For bird photography, having manual focus override is important. I use manual focusing every day I’m out shooting to help navigate through foliage, get any focus hunting issues back on track quickly, and while recording quick video clips of birds where autofocus is guaranteed to fail.

To work around this glaring issue, I have a custom button set up on my camera that toggles manual focusing while I hold it down. That way I don’t have to go hunting with my fingers on the side of the lens to flip the physical switch, saving me the precious seconds needed in bird photography.

没有变焦锁定机构

如果您对镜头的变焦感兴趣（我永远不会在600mm以外的任何其他镜头上使用它），那么您可能不喜欢稍微旋转一下您就可以改变数毫米的焦距。如果您拍摄中不小心，则会误动了变焦环。索尼FE 200-600mm f / 5.6-6.3 G OSS镜头变焦环非常流畅，可以使这些调整感觉平滑，但是也很容易将其从所需的焦距中误碰改变。对我来说，一直都是使用600毫米端但是没有锁定机构锁在600mm端，甚至没有像FE 100-400mm GM那样的可调阻尼（摩擦）控制装置。

为了解决这个问题，我在镜头上安装了LensCoat套并覆盖了变焦距环，这样就产生了足够的摩擦力，使其不会意外移动，但如果我真的想要，仍然可以转动它至需要的焦段。

No Zoom Lock
If the zoom of this lens interests you (I never use it at anything other than 600mm), than you may like the idea of a short throw with the zoom ring. With a slight twist, you can change hundreds of millimeters in focal length. That can also come to bite you in the butt if you aren’t careful. The zoom ring is very fluid making those adjustments feel smooth, but it is also easily knocked out of the focal length you want it at. For me, that’s 600mm all the time. With no lock, and not even a friction control like the FE 100-400mm GM, it happens all the time.

To solve this, I have a LensCoat Lens Cover on my lens and overlap the neoprene piece covering the zoom ring, that way it creates enough friction that it can’t move by accident yet still allows me to turn it if I really, really want to.

调焦环和变焦环位置

我不切实际的希望索尼能解决这个问题。但是，我推测由于所有其他镜头都被更换到了变焦环最靠近卡口的位置，因此这是该镜头设计的特殊需要。具有讽刺意味的是，我希望将其更换，因为特别是这个镜头。

手持超远摄镜头时，持镜头上的手通常应比脚架环更前（靠近镜头遮光罩），以实现最大的稳定性。这也使得长时间握住相机和镜头不易失态。现在的问题是我无法以更舒适、更稳定的方式握住该镜头，因为我需要随时准备好使用对焦环。

Focus Ring and Zoom Ring Positions
If Sony would fix one thing about this lens, this would be it for me. However, I’m speculating that since all their other lenses are swapped to where the zoom ring is nearest to the mount, it was a special necessity for the design of this lens. The irony is that I want it to be swapped because it specifically is this lens.

When handholding a super-telephoto, the hand that goes on the lens should generally be somewhere closer to the lens hood than the mount for the most stability. It also makes holding the camera and lens up for long periods of time less draining. The problem is that I can’t hold this lens in a more comfortable and stable fashion because I need to be ready on that focus ring which is on the mount side.

三脚架套环上没有内部对准凹槽

虽然200-600mm确实具有对准标记，能够用肉眼将三脚架项圈中的镜头锁定在相对垂直和水平的方向，但是它没有其他超级望远照片所具有的实际物理内部凹槽，所以您做不到看着取景器的景物就可以准确的把镜头锁定在相对垂直和水平的方向。

三脚架脚开箱即用
镜头制造商能否停止运输没有兼容Arca的燕尾榫的三脚架脚？如果您不使用Arca印版，那太好了，只需将自己的印版连接到底部就可以了。如果您像大多数摄影师一样使用Arca印版，那么现在您不必花费大量额外费用来更换脚或在底部添加笨重的印版。像腾龙那样。

视频中的颜色边缘
索尼在隐藏文件中的镜头瑕疵之前做得非常出色。我从未在照片中看到颜色条纹，甚至在后期处理中通常都不使用轮廓校正。但是，当我开始录制鸟类的短片时，我确实开始注意到有时在所有熟悉的地方（例如，白色的树枝上）都会出现彩色条纹（有时很重）。

No Alignment Stops on the Tripod Collar
While the 200-600mm does have alignment markings to be able to lock the lens in the tripod collar into relatively vertical and horizontal orientations by eye, it doesn’t have the physically-felt grooves there that other super-telephotos have so you don’t have to take your eye out of the viewfinder.

Tripod Foot Is Useless Out of Box
Can lens manufacturers please stop shipping tripod foots without Arca-compatible dovetails on them? If you don’t use the Arca plates then great, just attach your own plate to the bottom like you would have anyway. If you do use Arca plates, as most photographers do, now you don’t have to spend a bunch of extra money to replace the foot or add a bulky plate to the bottom. Tamron, I see you. Be like Tamron.

Color Fringing in Video
Sony does an excellent job at hiding any flaws with the lens in camera before the files hit the computer. I never saw color fringing in my photos, and I don’t even normally use profile corrections in post-processing. When I started to record short videos of birds though, I did start to notice that there’s color fringing, heavy sometimes, that will pop up in all the familiar places (branches against a white sky, for example).

最后的想法

“等等，你不是要谈谈f / 5.6-f / 6.3光圈吗？” 不，不是。镜头的光圈很快就会消失在“它就是它”的背景中。像这样的“慢速”超远摄镜头的一件事是，保持漂亮图像的相同基本概念不会改变。当然，您的相机的ISO需要与600mm f / 4镜头相撞，并停下三分之一。但是，一旦您克服了各种疑难杂症并将其与非常规杂物进行比较，这仅仅是新常态。此外，如果没有f / 6.3的光圈，大多数人将不会阅读此评论，而会现实地考虑购买。

索尼FE 200-600mm F / 5.6-6.3 OSS 可能在他们的阵容中唯一的鸟类摄影镜头，不花费$ 13,000，但是，这并不一定意味着它必须是一个不情愿购买。实际上，他们在价格为2,000美元，可以拍摄600mm镜头的镜头中所做的工作非常出色。在过去的一年中，我拍摄了许多成功的照片，这在一定程度上要归功于相对较小的，轻巧的设计，更大的拍摄灵活性以及强大的光学性能，以节省耕种时间。尽管它的布局和设计有一些缺点，但我还是这个镜头的骄傲。

Final Thoughts
“Wait, aren’t you going to talk about that f/5.6-f/6.3 aperture?” No, not really. The aperture of this lens is something that quickly faded into the background of “it is what it is.” The thing with “slow” super-telephotos like this one is that the same basic concepts for nice looking images doesn’t change. The ISO of your camera needs to be bumped up a stop and a third from a 600mm f/4 lens, sure, but it’s just the new normal once you get over the what ifs and comparing it to something it’s not. Besides, without that f/6.3 aperture, most people wouldn’t be reading this review and realistically considering a purchase.

The Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS might be the only bird photography lens in their lineup that doesn’t cost $13,000, but that doesn’t necessarily mean it has to be a reluctant purchase. It’s actually quite phenomenal what they’ve done in the space of a $2,000 lens that can shoot at 600mm. Over the past year I’ve taken many photos that were successful thanks in part to the relatively small, lightweight design for greater shooting flexibility and the powerful optical performance to save my behind in cropping. Despite a few drawbacks with its layout and design, I’m a proud owner of this lens.
