The fast and compact Sony FE 35mm F1.8 Lens from Sony provides a versatile wide-angle solution for your full-frame E-mount camera. It can also be used on APS-C format cameras where it will provide a 52.5mm equivalent focal length.
The lens features an aspherical element to reduce aberrations and field curvature while maintaining contrast and edge-to-edge sharpness. It also, boasts a maximum aperture of f/1.8 for selective focus effects and for working in low-light conditions.
Dust- and moisture-resistant construction that will permit operation in less-than-ideal weather conditions. Additionally, it has a nine-blade circular diaphragm for smooth bokeh.
For fast, responsive focusing, the 35mm uses a linear motor and internal focus design, while a customizable focus hold button locks focus when recomposing and can be set to activate other functions*
*(including Eye AF, AF On, Aperture Preview, Shot Result Preview, or Bright Monitoring among others).
A fast, versatile prime for all occasions
Offering outstanding image quality even at its maximum F1.8 aperture, this compact, lightweight 35mm prime lens for full-frame cameras is a versatile choice for everything from tabletop photography to the great outdoors. Fast, precise, quiet AF operation and reliable AF tracking make it suitable for shooting videos as well as stills.
Key Features
- A fast f/1.8 maximum aperture for creating images with a shallow depth of field as well as work in low-light conditions.
- Customizable focus hold button
- An aspheric element is incorporated in the lens design to reduce aberrations and field curvature while maintaining contrast and sharpness.
- A linear autofocus motor and internal focus design provide quick and precise autofocus performance and enables accurate and silent focusing while recording videos.
- AF/MF switch on the lens barrel conveniently allows for fast selection between autofocus or manual focus without having to access any menus.
- Dust- and moisture-sealed design better permits working in inclement conditions and rubberized control rings benefit handling in colder temperatures.
- Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques.
Compact and lightweight with full-frame coverage
Thanks to innovative optical design, this large-aperture lens weighs a mere 280g (9.9oz.) and is just 65.6mm in diameter by 73mm in length. That convenience and mobility come with superb image quality that makes it a great all-around choice for stills and movies. It is a full-frame lens, but also balances well with APS-C bodies, providing an equivalent focal length of 52.5mm that is ideal for portraits and snapshots.
High corner-to-corner resolution from the widest aperture
An aspherical element is strategically implemented in this lens’s advanced design to suppress optical aberration and achieve high resolution right out to the image periphery. Smooth bokeh is also available when needed, supported by a 9-blade circular aperture mechanism that contributes to natural looking highlights. 0.22m (0.73ft.) minimum focus distance and 0.24x maximum magnification make this lens useful for closeups too.
Versatile and reliable for a range of shooting situations
A conveniently placed focus hold button not only offers easy focus hold control, but can be assigned to a variety of other functions from a menu accessed via the camera body. The lens also features a focus mode switch that allows instant switching between auto and manual focus. A dust and moisture resistant design1 ensures maximum reliability in challenging shooting environments.
Quiet, reliable AF tracking for movies as well as stills
The narrow depth of field available at a wide F1.8 aperture makes focus critical. The fast response and high precision of this lens's linear-motor AF drive system ensure fast, precise, quiet autofocus operation. Outstanding AF performance is available not only for stills, but also for movies where "wobbling" is employed for delicate continuous focus control.
Natural, linear manual focus response
Linear Response MF ensures that the focus ring responds directly and linearly to subtle control when focusing manually. Focus ring rotation translates directly to a corresponding change in focus, so control feels immediate and precise.
