FE 14mm F1.8 GM Sony Alpha E-mount Full-frame Large-aperture Ultra-wide angle Prime G Master Lens for stills and movies with excellent G Master resolution and bokeh in a compact, lightweight design
- Compatible with most Sony E-mount cameras: For use with your existing device
- Advanced Optical Performance: The FE 14mm F1.8 GM delivers incredible G Master quality and performance with a new perspective from an ultra- wide-angle field of view and bright F1.8 aperture - all in a compact and lightweight design.
- 21mm equivalent on APS-C bodies: The FE 14mm F1.8 G Master lens is highly recommended for APS-C as well as full-frame users. It balances well on smaller APS-C format bodies, providing a wide focal length of 21mm.
- F1.8 max aperture: The F1.8 max aperture – uncommon in ultra-wide primes - provides extraordinary brightness and shallow depth of field, allowing you to isolate your subject from the foreground and background with amazing light gathering capabilities when shooting wide open.
- Beautiful, natural-looking bokeh: The F1.8 max 9-blade circular aperture maximizes the beauty of this large-aperture lens, contributing to impressive images in which the subject stands out against a smoothly defocused foreground and background, as well as perfectly round points of defocused light.
- Close-ups with stunning bokeh: The two XA lens elements plus innovative mechanical, optical and control technology achieve a minimum focusing distance of just 9.8” with a maximum magnification of 0.1x, making it possible to shoot impressive close-ups with smooth, creamy background bokeh.
- Two XA lens elements: The FE 14mm F1.8 GM incorporates two extremely precise XA (extreme aspherical) elements - manufactured to 0.01-micron surface precision and one Aspherical element in an innovative optical design that achieves stunning G Master resolution throughout the image area.
- One Super ED and two ED glass elements: One Super ED (Extra-low Dispersion) and two ED glass elements significantly reduce flare and ghosting by taking axial chromatic aberration and chromatic aberration out of the picture.
- XD Linear Motors for fast, precise, quiet focusing: The FE 14mm F1.8 G Master lens incorporates a precision internal focus mechanism consisting of two XD Linear Motors that easily keep up with the high-speed capabilities of today’s most advanced camera bodies.
- New Nano AR Coating II enhances clarity: A new Nano AR Coating II has been developed that can be evenly applied to large lens elements or highly curved element surfaces to suppress internal reflections and minimize flare and ghosting for clear, crisp imagery.
- Dust and moisture resistant for robust reliability: The dust and moisture resistant design make this lens appropriate for heavy-duty outdoor use, especially when combined with a camera that employs weather resistant measures.
- Fluorine front element coating: The front lens element features a fluorine coating that repels water, oil, and other contaminants, while making it easier to wipe off any contaminants or fingerprints that attach to the lens surface.
- Compact, lightweight design: This lens weighs just 16.3 oz. Its small size and light weight enhance mobility when used with compact E-mount Full-frame or APS-C bodies and make up a well-balanced system that is ideal for use on gimbals or accessory grips.
- Moviemaking advantage: Two XD Linear Motors for fast, precise autofocus and tracking, a bright F1.8 maximum aperture for beautifully defocused background bokeh, excellent close-up performance and a class leading compact and lightweight design, this lens is ideal for all types of content creators.
- Instant auto/manual focus selection: Instantly switch between auto and manual focus via an AF/MF switch on the side of the lens. This makes operation faster and easier as you let the camera and lens focus for you or decide to take control and manually focus on the precise point you choose.
- Natural, linear manual focus response: Linear Response MF ensures the focus ring responds directly and linearly to subtle control when focusing manually. Focus ring rotation translates directly to a corresponding change in focus, so control feels immediate and precise in both still and movie modes.
- Rear filter holder: The FE 14mm F1.8 GM takes a different approach so standard sheet-type ND, color correction and other filters can be inserted into the lens’s rear filter holder for expanded expressive capability. A cutting template for sheet filters is supplied.
- Integral petal-style lens hood: An integral lens hood effectively blocks off-axis light that can cause flare and ghosting. The supplied lens cap covers the hood, attaching easily and locking securely with the hood at any angle.

Fantastic Ultra Wide Angle Lens
This is a great ultra wide angle lens. I primarily bought this lens to take night launch pictures from KSC and learn to perfect my astrophotography with its low f1.8 stop. I did notice some minor fisheye in the corners (look at the trees in pic of the rocket over the building), but with a lens this wide, its hard to not have any and this GM lens does a fairly good job at keeping it to a minimum. All of my lenses are GM, but this was my first prime lens which I am still getting used to. I am very happy with this purchase and the only lens I would have passed this up for was the GM 12-24, but the price tag was too hefty to justify what I was going to use it for. See for yourself and you will not regret it if you buy this lens!! I also dabble in landscape photography so check out the sunrise pic.

Super wide angle lens
First super wide angle lens. Initially purchased for future real estate projects. Along with being lightweight this lens in has a fast aperture of 1.8, ideal for low light situations. Versatile prime, see photo examples below. The lens came with a lens bag and cover+a template for cutting out gel filters. Lines are straight even with the super wide, and distortion is minimal. Auto focus works wonders, I’d highly recommend this lens if you are looking for a creative, and wide angle lens.

Perfect Ultra Wide for Real Estate
Amazing Lens. I purchased this about to 2 years ago for real estate videography and it has not failed me. The image is sharp edge to edge with some slight distortion in the corners. The 1.8 is perfect for darker rooms. I also own the 16-25 G lens and that lens feels a bit tight for the guest bedrooms and tighter closets.
