Sony FE 50mm F1.2 GM Prime Lens

The technical details behind this lens

Sony FE 50mm F1.2 GM Prime Lens offers superb resolution and effective aberration removal even in backlit scenes. Introducing the first dramatic change in the G Master family of lenses, the FE 50mm reaches F1.2 aperture value for unparalleled image expression. Newly designed optics including three XA (extreme aspherical) elements contribute to the entire image area resolution which is maintained right down to F1.2. Even under back-lighting, Sony’s Nano AR Coating II effectively minimizes internal reflections and unwanted aberrations are suppressed to a minimum offering truly breathtaking images.

Beautiful and Dramatic Bokeh

Designed with an 11-blade circular aperture unit, the FE 50mm F1.2 GM offers stunning and expressive bokeh with smooth roll-off. Ideal spherical aberration is achieved through rigorous testing during the design and manufacturing stages. As a result, deep, dramatic bokeh is made possible for both foreground and background. The 0.01-micron surface precision delivered by the three XA elements enhances the bokeh throughout the scene. The 0.4m minimum focus distance also highlights the exceptional capabilities of the FE 50mm F1.2 for both stills and video recording.

Unmatched Optical Performance from a compact body

Maintaining the standard established in G Master lens design, the FE 50mm F1.2 boasts unparalleled optical performance from a compact body. The housing is constructed from a hybrid metal and robust engineering plastic, weighing only 778g, designed to withstand the harshest of environments. With a dust and moisture resistant design* as well as a fluorine front element coating that repels water, oil, and other contaminants, the 50mm F1.2 lens is built for every professional in either stills or movie.

Pinpoint focus even at F1.2

Utilizing four XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors, the FE 50mm F1.2 achieves pinpoint focus even at the remarkably shallow F1.2 aperture. The high thrust the efficiency of the XD linear motors ensure accurate, reliable autofocus for either stills or movie recording. The drive motors are further refined by advanced algorithms, developed specifically for the XD linear motors, which improve control response and precision whilst minimizing vibration and noise for fast and silent AF performance. When using in manual focus, Linear Response MF is ideal for creative focusing when shooting video as it ensures the focus ring responds to subtle control when focusing manually. The focus ring rotation translates directly to a corresponding change in focus, so control feels immediate and precise.
