SonyFE 14mm F1.8 GM Full-Frame Large-Aperture Wide Angle Prime G Master Lens Black

The media could not be loaded. I wanted to get a wider angle lens for my Sony A7 IVMy standard lens goes out to 24 mm and I have an 18 mm but for indoor work I wanted something even wider. The difference between 14 mm and 18 mm is considerable and this is a better lens anyway. For real estate photography or any other interior work. This is really useful. The fast aperture means that the dimly lit interiors are still usable. The lack of distortion is much appreciated. I also use this for landscape panorama work.

For a milky way photography enthusiast, this lens achieves the holy trinity of fast (f1.8), sharp, and light (460 grams or 1 pound). The last quality is important for me since I often go to remote places for my milky way photos (the attached shot was in Great Basin National Park at ~11000 ft. which took 4 miles of hiking to get to). My other wide angle lens is the Sony-Zeiss 16-35 F4, this F1.8 is noticeably lighter than that lens!!There are many online reviews about this lens, and all I can say is: the hype is real. We have not seen anything like it up to this point (Sigma 14mm f1.8 is a traditional DSLR design and is big and bulky). It can also produce pretty good sunstars, which is important for a lens this wide.Two really really minor issues: first, it is so sharp that in certain cases it gives the "overly sharpened in photoshop" look. This is more obvious if there are leaves and grass in the photo. Second, the micro-contrast is not as good as the Zeiss in my opinion.

I shoot night images, and the stars are perfect with this lens. It's just sweet. So much better than the Rokinon and Samyang. Light weight. Trustworthy. Makes taking pictures FUN. I love the perspective and the beauty.

The media could not be loaded. Sharpest, widest lens in my Arsenal with a fast 1.8 is hard to find especially at this weight. Very light and this lens does a extremely good job minimizing distortions. It’s incredible. Im usually hesitant with lens that cost close to 2 grand but with this lens I did not disappoint or regret.

I’ve only had this lens a couple of days but I already love it. I handles beautifully. It’s crazy light for a 14mm. I tried out the 12-24 GM and just couldn’t get excited about such a big heavy lens with a relatively limited zoom range, esp since I already own and love the 16-35 GM. This is a perfect compliment to the 16-35, for the wider perspective and the faster 1.8 aperture for astro shots. Excellent lens.

There was no indication in the used item description that the lens would be missing the lens cap.

Using an A7siii, 4k, full frame...no vignetting, little barreling (depending on the angle, of course), great clarity. One must use clip-in filters as the outer lens is spherical and won't accept a standard 82mm. No image stabilization as that's on-board the camera. I've used it for both landscape and portrait with excellent results.

Out of the box the lens had a very large piece of something inside the rear element and had to be sent to Sony for warranty repair. Amazon would not replace it. At $1700 price, this should not happen. Otherwise I would give it 5 stars.

This lens is amazing. But of course, it's a G Master lens. It's minimum focus distance is quite close. I felt like I was too close to my subject, but it still focused. And at f/1.8 the bokeh from everything else in the distance is creamy smooth.This will be my wide field Astro lens for Milky Way shots and such. It'll make a great low light landscape lens. Highly recommend for any landscape photographer in low light scenarios, but also good for being able to focus really close and get that smooth background separation. (I know, not something you typically think of with a 14mm lens, but it does work.)

Lente maravilhosa, que estou usando muito tanto para fotos de paisagens quanto de eventos.Gostei muito do vendedor que fez uma entrega de qualidade, no prazo, respondeu minhas dúvidas e com um excelente preço.

Esta focal justifica 1/1 su relación valor-precio. Baja o casi nula distorsión sobre un sensor full-frame. Nitidez sobresaliente aún para los estándares de la línea GM de Sony, esta focal es extraordinaria. Ideal para fotografía de paisaje, arquitectura, astro-fotografía, interiorismo o para establishing shots en video.

For an open wide F1.8 14mm you're not gonna find a better lens for Sony E mount. Worth every dollar. Buy it nice so you don't buy it twice.
