The Sony Sonnar T* FE 35mm f/2.8 ZA lens is a compact, high-performance wide-angle prime lens that’s perfect for travel, street, and landscape photography. Despite its small size, this lens delivers excellent image quality, making it an ideal choice for photographers who value portability without sacrificing performance. Its f/2.8 maximum aperture allows for versatility in various lighting conditions while contributing to the sleek and lightweight design.
Utilizing ZEISS optics, the lens features a design with seven elements in five groups, incorporating three double-sided aspherical elements. These help to reduce astigmatism, field curvature, coma, and other monochromatic aberrations, ensuring sharp, clear images. The lens also includes ZEISS’s T* anti-reflective coatings, which reduce flare and ghosting, resulting in improved contrast and color fidelity.
The lens’s autofocus is powered by a linear motor and an internal focus mechanism, providing fast, precise, and silent focusing. This makes it suitable for both stills and video work. A rounded seven-blade diaphragm creates a smooth and attractive bokeh effect when using selective focus techniques, enhancing the overall aesthetic of your photos.
Weighing just 4.2 oz and measuring 1.5 inches in length, this lens is easy to carry and perfect for photographers on the go. It also features a dust- and moisture-sealed design, making it reliable for use in challenging weather conditions. The included compact cap-style lens hood helps prevent flare and includes a separate 40.5mm filter thread, in addition to the 49mm thread on the lens itself.
With its combination of portability, durability, and image quality, the Sony Sonnar T* FE 35mm f/2.8 ZA is a great choice for photographers looking for a compact and capable lens.
