Sony Distagon T* FE 35mm f/1.4 ZA Lens
The Distagon T* FE 35mm f/1.4 ZA Lens from Sony offers full-frame E-mount shooters a classic wide-angle focal length with excellent optical performance and speed. Suitable for a variety of subjects, this lens excels in street, landscape, and lifestyle situations, and the bright design is ideal for available lighting and selective focusing needs. Based on the ZEISS Distagon optical concept, this lens uses a design with 12 elements in eight groups that helps achieve the large maximum aperture of f/1.4 while helping to minimize vignetting and spherical aberrations.
One Advanced Aspherical (AA) and two aspherical elements are incorporated into the optical design for effective control over astigmatism, field curvature, coma, and other spherical aberrations. Direct drive Super Sonic wave Motor autofocus system and internal focus mechanism provide quick, quiet, and precise autofocus performance and also contributes to more natural, intuitive manual focus control. AF/MF switch is located on the lens barrel for tactile control over the focusing mode.
Physical aperture rings can be de-clicked for smooth, silent aperture switching to benefit video applications, Dust and moisture-sealed design better permits working in inclement conditions and rubberized control rings benefit handling in colder temperatures. Fast f/1.4 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers a wealth of control over the focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques.
ZEISS T* anti-reflective coatings have been applied to each lens surface to help minimize reflections in order to provide greater image clarity, contrast, and color fidelity
The rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques
