What it frames
From 3 m back it takes in a scene about 0.1 × 0.1 m on the a6400, one person or a detail rather than a group.
At its closest (2.5 m from the sensor) a subject about 9.4 cm wide fills the frame of the a6400.
Sony lists its 1.4x and 2x teleconverters (SEL14TC, SEL20TC) for this lens. With the 1.4x it becomes 840 mm at f/9 and frames like 1,260 mm on the a6400; with the 2x, 1,200 mm at f/13, like 1,800 mm.
