Top specs

  • Type

    Ultra-Wide Zoom

    Ultra-wide angle lenses with zoom capability and a shooting angle of approximately 180°. They have a strong distortion effect which is usually the desired effect. Their focal distance usually starts from 15-23mm in full frame, 8-15mm in crop frame, and 30-45mm in medium format.

  • Mount

    The type of mount that the camera body must have in order for the lens to be fully functional when attached to it.

    2. Some lenses can be used with older mounts from the same manufacturer, sacrificing certain functions (e.g. autofocus), or even with mounts from other manufacturers using an adapter.

  • Item

    Lenses with variable optical (zoom) that remain equally bright (same maximum aperture value) throughout the entire focal distance range they offer. Usually significantly more expensive than their variable aperture counterparts.

    Fixed Focal Length

    Lenses with fixed optics are usually of higher quality than a corresponding zoom lens at the same focal distance. They are also called "fixed" or "prime" lenses.

  • Maximum Aperture (f)

    Opening the diaphragm determines the amount of light received by the camera and affects the depth of field.
    2. The most open aperture of a lens is called the maximum. The more open the aperture (smaller f-number), the shallower the depth of field.

It features a quiet STM stepping motor for fast autofocus, as well as an optical design that eliminates focus breathing in video. Its compact design combines with outstanding edge-to-edge sharpness, making it easy to carry for everyday photography.

13mm Ultra-Wide Frame and 20mm Equivalent Coverage

The lens features an ultra-wide 13mm focal length with a 94° angle of view.
It is designed specifically for APS-C cameras with a Sony E mount.
It provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 20mm.
It allows photographers to capture entire landscapes and imposing buildings in a single frame.
It is an ideal choice for landscape, cityscape, architectural, and street photography.
It delivers a dynamic perspective with precise geometric balance and no distracting distortion.

Bright f/1.4 Maximum Aperture and Smooth 9-Blade Bokeh

The impressively bright maximum aperture of f/1.4 strikes an ideal balance between size and speed.
It allows comfortable shooting in challenging available-light and low-light conditions.
It lets you maintain faster shutter speeds without unwanted digital noise.
It offers greater control over shallow depth of field for expressive selective focus.
The iris features a 9-blade aperture that produces exceptionally soft and natural bokeh.
It gives your subject a unique sense of depth, harmoniously separating it from the broad background.

Optical Design with 2 Aspherical and 4 ED Low-Dispersion Elements

The advanced optical architecture consists of 14 elements in 11 groups.
It includes two aspherical optical elements optimized to control distortion.
It eliminates off-axis optical aberrations, maintaining excellent resolution across the entire frame.
It also incorporates four extra-low dispersion (ED) elements.
It dramatically reduces color fringing and chromatic aberrations at every aperture.
It guarantees exceptional sharpness, clarity, and faithful color accuracy from center to edge.

Quiet STM AF Motor and Focus Breathing Elimination

The lens features a fast STM stepping autofocus motor.
It delivers fast, accurate, and responsive focusing on both still and moving subjects.
Its operation is exceptionally quiet, making it ideal for video recording and vlogging.
Designed for smooth video capture, it effectively eliminates focus breathing.
It maintains consistent framing as the focal length changes during a shot.
It offers a minimum focusing distance of just 8.7 inches (22 cm) for impressive close-ups.

Compact 420g Design and 67mm Front Filter Thread

Despite its large f/1.4 aperture, the lens maintains an elegant, compact profile.
Weighing just 420 grams and measuring 74 x 90 mm, it offers excellent maneuverability.

    Heavy and high-quality lens with a 67mm lens diameter.
    Attached to Sony VG 30, a6300, a7iii and performs exceptionally well at f2 and above.
    At f1.4, in low light conditions, it will necessarily have vignetting and slight color deviation depending on the lighting scenario.
    It has good control over flares and contrast, with some elements playing within the image (reflections, etc.).
    The autofocus is very good up to EV -1.5, below that it is difficult to find focus. In moving scenarios with good lighting, you can capture 3 to 4 photos in a burst (up to 20).
    For video, it is excellent with settings in AFC, AFS, etc.
    The aperture ring is nice and smooth without clicks, but relatively stiff as it is new.
    In a video flow of over 3 hours with changing lighting, it did not lose focus but slightly shifted forward and backward if there are depths and multiple scenes.
    The focusing distance is approximately 20 cm with the focusing ring being relatively loose, of course, without linear function for preset pull and throw positions for demanding video users.
    The lens rendering is excellent in color reproduction and almost always alternates with the Sony 35mm f1.8 FE lens, forming an unbeatable duo, but they have slight color deviations with the same camera.
