Product Information
Sony’s G MasterTM technology delivers extraordinary resolution and bokeh in a compact, lightweight lens. Precise, rapid AF, smooth operability, and rugged reliability highlight this large-aperture standard prime lens.
From the manufacturer
G Master image quality to the edges of the frame.
Two high-precision XA (extreme aspherical) lens elements effectively correct distortion and most types of aberration. This new optical design also employs an ED (extra-low dispersion) glass element to suppress chromatic aberration. With our Nano AR Coating II, flare and ghosting is reduced.
A large F1.4 aperture delivers magnificent bokeh
Innovative optics and a large F1.4 maximum aperture combine to deliver magnificent bokeh. Smooth, naturally defocused background and foreground bokeh are ideal for making portrait subjects stand out from their surroundings.
Highly mobile, lightweight and compact
XA (extreme aspherical) elements precisely positioned in an innovative design, high-thrust XD linear motors, and the latest compact circular aperture unit work together in a lens that is only 3.17” (80.6 mm) in outer diameter and 3.78” (96.0 mm) in length while weighing just 18.23 oz (516 grams).
Fast, precise, quiet AF and tracking
The lens’s focus group is driven by high-thrust XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors and an advanced control algorithm for smooth, responsive focus drive. Noise and vibration are minimized for refined, quiet AF operations. Movie subjects are smoothly captured and tracked even when shooting at 120 fps.
