Sony FE 35mm f/1.8 Lens (SEL35F18F.SYX)

A fast, versatile prime lens for any occasion This compact, lightweight 35mm prime lens for full-frame cameras, delivering excellent image quality even at its maximum aperture of F1.8, is a versatile choice for a wide range of needs, from tabletop to nature photography. Fast, precise and quiet AF operation and reliable AF tracking make it suitable for both video and still photography. Compact and lightweight with full-frame coverage Thanks to its innovative optical design, this large-aperture lens weighs only 280g (9.9oz.) and is only 65.6mm in diameter and 73mm in length. This convenience and mobility combined with excellent image quality make it a great all-round choice for both stills and video. It's a full-frame lens, but also works well with APS-C bodies, providing a 52.5mm equivalent focal length that's ideal for portraits and snapshots. High corner-to-corner resolution from the widest aperture An aspherical element is strategically incorporated into the advanced construction of this lens to suppress optical aberrations and achieve high resolution right out to the periphery of the image. Smooth bokeh is also available when needed, thanks to a 9-blade circular aperture mechanism that promotes naturally lit lighting. The 0.22m minimum focal length and 0.24x maximum magnification make this lens useful for close-ups as well. Versatile and reliable in a variety of shooting situations The conveniently placed focus hold button not only provides easy focus hold control, but can also be set to a variety of other functions via a menu accessible from the camera body. The lens also features a focus mode switch that lets you instantly switch between auto and manual focus. Dust and moisture resistant construction1 ensures maximum reliability in challenging shooting environments. Quiet, reliable AF tracking for both video and stills The shallow depth of field available with a wide F1.8 aperture makes focus critical. The fast response and high precision of this lens' linear motor AF drive system ensures fast, accurate and quiet autofocus operation. Excellent AF performance is available not only for stills, but also for movies, where 'ripple' is used for fine continuous focus control.
