Description

Sony A1 II with the FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSS hire in London (ILCE-1M2 with SEL100400GM) — 50MP flagship on the long zoom. Available to hire in central London. This is the wildlife and stadium pairing. 400mm of reach with the flexibility to pull back to 100mm without changing lenses, on a body that shoots 30 frames a second blackout-free and gives you 50MP to crop into afterwards. That last part matters more than it sounds. At 50MP you can frame loose, keep the subject safely in shot, and still deliver a full-size file after cropping — which is often the difference between getting the frame and missing it. WHAT'S INCLUDED A1 II body, FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSS with tripod collar, 160GB CFexpress Type A card, CFexpress card reader, spare battery and charger. Supplied in a hard case or padded bag. CAMERA Sensor: 50.1MP full-frame stacked Exmor RS Stills: up to 30fps, blackout-free Video: 8K up to 30p, 4K up to 120p Stabilisation: in-body, up to 8.5 stops Autofocus: AI processing unit with real-time subject recognition Cards: dual slots, CFexpress Type A and SD Mount: Sony E LENS FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSS Autofocus: Direct Drive SSM Stabilisation: OSS, coordinating with the body Minimum focus: 0.98m Filter thread: 77mm Weight: around 1,395g Teleconverters: 1.4x and 2.0x supported WITH A TELECONVERTER Add my Sony 2x and it becomes 200-800mm with autofocus retained. For birding or a stadium, that is an enormous amount of reach for the money. WHAT PEOPLE HIRE IT FOR Wildlife and birding. Sport from the stands. Motorsport. Air shows and aviation. Press. Long-lens documentary. Any London job where you cannot get closer and 200mm runs out. THIS OR THE 300MM f/2.8? Take this for reach and range across a whole day. Take the A1 II with the 300mm f/2.8 GM when the light is poor and the subject is fast — it's a stop and a half quicker, but it's one focal length. PACKING Every camera hire in London goes out in a hard case or padded bag. If you need it packed a particular way, say so when you book.
