Focus precision is vital when working with high-resolution
images and a narrow depth of field. A ring SSM (Super Sonic
wave Motor) yields the power and precision necessary to
accurately and swiftly position one of the heaviest focusing
groups in any interchangeable lens for mirrorless cameras,
and a new multi-sensor system plus high-speed data
processing provides the instantaneous feedback required for
flawless autofocus precision.
An on-lens aperture ring features click stop on/off switching to
satisfy still photographers as well as moviemakers. Additional
convenience is provided by AF/MF focus mode and hood
lock buttons. Seals at the mount and control points ensure
maximum dust and moisture resistance for reliable operation
in the widest possible range of environments.*
* Although the design is dust and moisture resistant, absolute protection
from dust and moisture is not guaranteed.
This lens’s nonpareil combination of resolution and bokeh
is partly due to a new XA (extreme aspherical) element with
unprecedented surface precision. Aberration is effectively
suppressed while overwhelming resolution delivers striking
detail at all focusing distances, even at the widest F1.4
aperture. Three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements
additionally control axial chromatic aberration.
Complementing the performance of the XA element are
the first 11-blade circular aperture ever implemented in an
lens, and exacting spherical aberration adjustment for
each individual lens. The result is enchantingly soft-edged
bokeh that is a hallmark of the Sony G Master series.
