SONY 35mm f/1.4 GM - in with the NEW!!!

Today Sony announced the 59th e-mount lens - the Sony FE 35mm f/1.4 G Master. This is an exceptional lens that features an extremely high image quality in a relatively compact size. While Sony did release a 35mm early on in the Zeiss collaboration (the ZA version), this one is lighter and outperforms the previous lens - especially with aberration corrections. It really is exceptional. This is the right lens just to leave attached to your camera and ready to go for day to day use. Color and contrast are incredible and what you would expect from a GM lens.

I have to compliment you on the quality of the photography throughout the video.
And it’s not just the equipment used it’s the user.

After 20 reviews or more you are the first one who is showing real pictures! Thank you for that!!!! Isn't not the reason why we want to have such great lenses in our gears? No test sheet pics and no spec repetition, that's what we love!

[zoltanszoke]

It’s great that Sony is not sponsoring it but Jared, Tony, Kai and you came out with it at the same time along with a ton of others.

[JamesDuguid]

Yes I'm keen for the 50mm GM - hopefully it's up next!

[TreParker]

Love my ZA 35 but this is very intriguing. The ficus hold button being a game changer.

[PhotoTrekr]

I think you are spot on about a 50mm. Wouldn't be surprised if it's f/1.2.

[jlid]

Right off the bat, I notice the new studio and great lighting. Your videos have always been very nice to watch, but you just kicked it up a notch, or 2!! And the video itself is top notch, as always. Thanks Ted!

[JavierMedinaImagery]

I love my 24mm f/1.4 GM. But I would love to give this new 35mm a try one day! Thanks for the review Ted.

[NatyMidnight]

Never clicked so fast, watching these all day today 😂 as I’ve been contemplating getting a 35 mm lens for street/ travel.

[jackryder]

Great reviews. You didn't speak about breathing issues?

[ahamedriyaz]

I almost watched all the videos regarding this lens before watching yours. Got to know a few new things about this lens. Subscribed

[matrixlee]

Very good review! Third time watching and thanks for making this. And I agree it would be fantastic if SONY makes a 50 1.4 GM in this similar size and quality.

[MeAMuse]

Hey Ted, a couple of years ago you named the Sony 35mm F1.8 as one of your lenses of the year. This is definitely a different kind of lens... but intrigued to know whether which you would personally own (I can remember if you own the F1.8 already).

[NVIK]

The mirrorless competition is getting really fierce on the lens front as well. Impressive lens!

[lordharrington]

Impressive. Helpful cinema clip. Your new Ateliér appears decidedly sweet.

[marcopolli]

It's great having so many videos about this lens. I can afford one so I'm feeling like those people who watch videos of games instead of playing them.

[gospelphilomath]

sony enthusiasts know how long we've been waiting for this lens lol

[charruaporelmundo]

Indeed, we all are waiting for the 50 1.4 GM, Planar is indeed fantastic, but a reduction on size and weight will make the lens much more attractive, a lens you can just travel with it, go everywhere...

[lawrencev.athill]

I was exhilarated to hear that review. Thank you again, for your insight and giving more credence to mirrorless (still sticking with DSLR).

[WebWay]

Yeah I would to see a 50 mm GM Prime as well to get some great 1:1 range as well.
