Sony FE 35mm F1.8 large aperture prime lens
The compact and light weight, large-aperture prime
lens is ideal for full-frame and APS-C cameras and
provide mobility and convenience for shooting a
wide range of subjects from everyday snapshots, food
photography, landscapes, night scenes and more. It
provides outstanding corner-to-corner image quality
and beautiful bokeh, while its quiet autofocus and
tenacious tracking performance make it a great choice

Key Features
Large F1.8 maximum aperture
The 35mm focal length is a perfect choice for everyday snapshots, food photography,
landscapes, night scenes and more as the maximum F1.8 aperture opens up a world of beautiful
prime-lens bokeh. The large F1.8 maximum aperture enables beautiful defocusing eects and
enables massive amount of light for low-light or dimly lit shooting scenarios.
9-blade circular aperture
The 9-blade circular aperture maximizes the beauty captured by this large-aperture prime-lens,
contributing to impressive images in which the subject stands out against a smoothly defocused
background bokeh as well as naturally rendered points of defocused light.
Rened optical performance
The rened optical design includes an aspheric glass element which dramatically reduces
spherical aberration while also reducing lens size and weight. Field curvature is carefully
corrected by this specially shaped aspherical lens to restore alignment of light rays at the image
plane. Superior contrast is maintained across the entire image, even at large aperture settings,
resulting in corner-to-corner sharpness.
Linear motor for fast and precise focusing
The linear motor is used to allow fast, precise focusing, even at challenging maximum F1.8
aperture where the depth of eld is very shallow. Operation is responsive and quiet whether
you’re focusing manually or using autofocus. This, with its rapid response ability for ne focus
adjustment, make it ideal for movie recording as well.
Compact and lightweight
Weighing in at only 9.9 oz. (280g) and measuring a mere Φ 2.58” x 2.87“ (Φ65.6mm x 73mm),
the 35mm F1.8 is an ideal compact and lightweight everyday lens. Additionally, its compact
dimensions make it an appealing choice for both Full-frame as well as APS-C bodies, oering a
52.5mm equivalent focal length on APS-C cameras.
Customizable focus hold button
The focus hold button not only performs its primary function to lock focus when recomposing,
but can be customized to a number of other functions depending on your needs. In addition to
Focus Hold, these custom functions include: Eye AF, AF On, Aperture Preview, Shot Result Preview
or Bright Monitoring among others.
8.66” min. focus distance
Get close-up with a minimum 8.66” focus distance and maximum 0.24x magnication for macro
and other interesting shots.
AF/MF switch
A direct AF/MF switch on the lens barrel conveniently allows for fast selection between autofocus
or manual focus without having to access any menus.
Linear Response Manual Focus
Linear Response manual focus (MF) allows for ne, responsive Manual Focus control, especially
needed when shooting ne detail, close-up images or pulling critical focus while shooting in
movie mode. Linear Response Manual Focus delivers predictable and repeatable manual focus
control.
Internal focusing
The overall length of the lens does not change when focusing which is especially important
when using for video recording. Other important benets include fast autofocusing and a short
minimum focusing distance. Also, the lter thread at the front of the lens does not rotate, which is
convenient when using a polarizing lter.
Dust and moisture resistant1 for robust reliability
The dust and moisture resistant1 design makes this lens appropriate for heavy-duty outdoor use,
especially when combined with a camera that employs weather resistant measures.
