Sony E 35mm f/1.4 G GM

The Sony FE 35mm F1.4 G Master is a premium wide-angle prime lens designed for Sony's full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras, renowned for its exceptional optical performance and versatile 35mm focal length, often considered ideal for street photography. Its fast f/1.4 maximum aperture allows for superb low-light performance and the creation of beautifully shallow depth of field with creamy bokeh, enhanced by its 11-bladed circular diaphragm. The lens incorporates advanced optical elements, including two XA (extreme aspherical) and two ED (extra-low dispersion) elements, meticulously crafted to deliver outstanding sharpness and clarity across the entire frame, even wide open. Beyond its impressive optics, the FE 35mm F1.4 G Master boasts a robust and refined build quality. It features weather seals around all buttons and rings, along with a fluorine-coated front element to repel grease, oil, and moisture, ensuring reliability in diverse shooting conditions. Handling is further enhanced by a manual aperture ring with clear 1/3 EV click stops, which can be de-clicked for smooth, silent aperture adjustments during video recording. Twin XD linear motors provide fast, precise, and quiet autofocus performance. Despite its advanced features and wide aperture, the lens maintains a relatively compact and manageable size, making it a highly desirable choice for professional and enthusiast photographers seeking a high-performance, versatile prime lens for a wide range of applications, from environmental portraits to everyday documentary work.
