Sony 15mm f/1.4 G Lens

The technical details behind this lens

Produce gorgeous background bokeh with the Sony 15mm f/1.4 G Lens. This lens deploys three aspherical elements in an advanced optical design which effectively compensates for distortion and delivers excellent corner-to-corner resolution, despite the lens’s wide 15 mm view. A large F1.4 maximum aperture, along with precisely controlled spherical aberration and circular aperture mechanism makes it easy to produce smooth, background bokeh for artist effect.

Excellent control and reliability for stills and movies

Fast, precise, quiet AF and tracking for both stills and movies are achieved with two advanced linear motors. This maximises the speed potential of the camera body used to maintain accurate focus, even on moving subjects. The 15mm F1.4 G uses Sony’s latest lens technology to reduce focus breathing, and angle-of-view variations are minimised for smooth, stable movie imagery. The 15mm F1.4 G also supports the breathing compensation function provided in compatible α series bodies, minimising breathing.

Despite its compact dimensions, the 15mm F1.4 G includes an aperture ring for direct, intuitive control with an aperture click switch that can be switched ON or OFF. A focus hold button and focus mode switch are also provided for extra flexibility. The focus mode switch makes it possible to quickly switch between AF and MF as needed.
