Advanced optical construction and quality elements continue to be part of the top-of-the-line G Master series, which is renewed with the FE 50MM F1.4 GM lens. With spherical aberration control, it allows you to create soft and deep bokeh at F1.4, for truly unique portraits.

Yann Salmon LegagneurDirector of Product Marketing, Digital Imaging at Sony Europe, explains: “Knowing the needs and demands of today’s content creators, Sony couldn’t be more proud to expand its line of E-mount lenses with the innovative FE 50 MM F1.4 GM. Perfect for both stills and video, this prime lens delivers excellent image quality at one of the most popular focal lengths: 50mm. Condensing the cutting-edge technologies of the G Master series into a 50mm so compact it means ensuring incomparable versatility.”

There are two elements XA (Extreme Aspherical) which effectively correct field curvature, together with a glass element ED (Extra-low Dispersion) which cancels out chromatic aberrations. Added to this is the treatment Nano AR Coating II.

With putting in minimum focus of 0.41 metres and zoom from 0,16x with the autofocus active, it allows you to have really interesting shots and shots.

Also, the format is compact. Let’s talk about alone 80.6 mm in diameter, 96.0 mm in length and 516 g in weight. Compared to the category, we are at -33% by weight and -15% by volume. So much so that it becomes excellent for those who move often, even in combination with gimbals and drones.
