New to the premium G Master range, is this wonderful prime lens, the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM. The wide-angle focal length of the lens is best for capturing the most majestic of views, such as can be found in landscape, astrophotography, or similar. Both of these mentioned applications will also be benefitted by the ultra-bright f1.4 maximum aperture and its superb low-light and depth of field performance. When shot wide open the lens is a true wonder, its 11-blade circular aperture diaphragm providing breathtakingly beautiful bokeh. The updated Direct Drive SSM focus system allows you to shoot quickly and quietly, while the lens is notable for its ability to retain its ruggedness while being the lightest in its class.
A fast and wide prime lens, the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM is a premium quality lens that holds the distinction of currently being the lightest in its class. With its bright f1.4 maximum aperture, this lens allows for exceptional handheld performance, made all the more superb when paired with a Sony Alpha body with built-in IS. Another benefit of this fast maximum aperture is its ability to produce large amounts of background blur, which is in turn of the highest order, thanks to the 11-blade circular aperture diaphragm.
From corner to corner, at all apertures, the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM produces images of exceptional quality, owing to the inclusion of two XA elements and three ED glass elements, a pairing that eliminates the appearance of a range of aberrations, coma, and flare. This high-quality optical construction, in conjunction with the wide focal length, makes this lens a very suitable option for Astrophotography. Also, a perfect fit for this lens, are Landscape, street, and documentary photography.
With its Direct Drive SSM motor in charge of Autofocus, the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM lens performs quickly and swiftly, allowing you to shoot in discreet interiors, and to adequately employ the high-resolution video functionality of your Sony mirrorless body. Despite its previously mentioned lightweight build, this Sony lens is suited to accompany you in less-than-perfect weather conditions, thanks to its dust and moisture-resistant build.
