Sony FE 24mm f/1.4 GM Lens (E-Mount)

Description

The new Sony SEL24F14GM provides advanced Alpha shooters with a versatile wide-angle boasting a large maximum aperture. This makes depth-of-field effects achievable, even at moderate focus distances. The unique optical formula is both compact and high performance, made possible by the short flange distance of E-Mount. As a result, this lens is remarkably compact and lightweight.

The 24mm f/1.4 G-Master has been designed to deliver exceptionally high optical performance across the entire image frame, right from f/1.4. As a result, the lens is ideal for Astrophotography, having excellent resistance to coma and other aberrations that plague astrophotgraphy and other high-performance imaging applications.

Key Features:

• As part of Sony's esteemed G Master series, this lens is designed to achieve notably high resolution and sharpness through the correction of a wide variety of spherical and chromatic aberrations. Additionally, these lenses feature robust and intuitive-to-handle physical designs to benefit both photography and cine applications.

• Versatile wide-angle prime is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, however can also be used on APS-C models where it provides a 36mm equivalent focal length.

• Notably fast f/1.4 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field.

• Two XA elements are incorporated into the optical design, which features superior surface precision for effective control over astigmatism, field curvature, coma, and other spherical aberrations.

• Three extra-low dispersion elements are featured in the lens design and help to reduce chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for improved clarity and colour neutrality.

• A Nano AR Coating has been applied to reduce surface reflections, flare, and ghosting for increased contrast and colour rendering in strong lighting conditions.

• A Direct Drive Super Sonic wave Motor AF system and internal focus mechanism provides quick, quiet, and precise autofocus performance and also contributes to more natural, intuitive manual focus control.

• A focus hold button is present on the lens barrel for intuitive tactile control and rapid access to select settings.

• Physical aperture ring 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 rubberised control rings benefit handling in colder temperatures.

• Fluorine-coated front element resists dust, moisture, and fingerprints and is easy to clean.

• Rounded 11-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques.
