G Series Lens

This wide-angle prime lens provides a 22.5mm equivalent focal length, making it adaptable for diverse shooting scenarios including street, landscape, travel, and selfie-style vlogging. Its fast f/1.4 aperture supports shallow depth of field and precise focus control, while performing well in low-light environments. The optical design features three aspherical elements to enhance sharpness and minimize distortion and spherical aberrations. Additionally, one Super ED and two ED elements reduce chromatic aberrations, ensuring superior clarity and accurate color rendition. A rounded 7-blade diaphragm delivers smooth, natural bokeh for aesthetic background separation.

Refined Focusing Performance

The Linear Motor system employs two distinct motors to deliver fast, silent, and precise autofocus and tracking capabilities. This configuration also enables a more intuitive Linear Response manual focus experience, with an easily accessible AF/MF switch on the lens barrel for seamless focus mode transitions. Featuring internal focusing, the lens ensures swift focus adjustments while keeping its length constant during use. It supports close-up photography with a minimum focus distance of 17cm and a maximum magnification of 0.15x in manual focus, or 20cm and 0.12x magnification with autofocus. Smooth Motion Optics (SMO) minimizes focus breathing to preserve framing accuracy when shifting focus, and the lens is compatible with the Breathing Compensation feature available on select Alpha camera models.

Robust Design and Intuitive Handling

Built with dust and moisture resistance, this lens performs reliably in challenging environments. Its physical aperture ring can be de-clicked to allow smooth and silent aperture adjustments, enhancing video shooting. A customizable focus hold button on the barrel offers convenient tactile control and quick access to preferred functions. Compact and lightweight at 70mm in length and 219g in weight, the lens pairs exceptionally well with the streamlined design of APS-C camera bodies, making it an ideal portable option.
