In a interview with DPReview at 2018 CP+ show in Yokohama, Sony manager Kenji Tanaka confirmed that the weight of Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS lens “is very light, and you can use it handheld, which makes it easy to create different kinds of photographs“. And this new Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS lens will be released in this Summer. You can check pre-order option at B&H.

From Kenji Tanaka:

Last year we launched the a9 and some sports photographers are already using the a9, for example at the Olympics, but one of the most important lenses for sports photographers is the 400mm F2.8. The weight is very light. Usually sports photographers use monopods because the lenses are very heavy, but the weight of our 400mm F2.8 is very light, and you can use it handheld, which makes it easy to create different kinds of photographs. We already announced the development of this lens, and the launch is scheduled for this summer.
