I have moved to Sony shooting mainly night & low light Astro photography. The 24 f1.4 GM is a total game changer that has taken my Aurora and MilkyWay photography to a new level. This lens is mounted to my Sony A7R 4A the 24mm f1.4 GM delivers above and beyond all expectations the detail from corner to corner is fantastic the best I have ever used. I have not seen any Chromatic aberrations, Coma, vignetting, this lens keeps on Giving outstand images no matter what I point it at.

I purchased this used and it looks mint apart from the serial number stickers that are peeling off. Otherwise a great lens so far.

I use this for astro a lot. I use it on my full frame camera and switch to ASP-C mode for street, giving me an about 38mm equivalency. Excellent Bokeh. great colors and always sharp as a whistle.

If you want the most clarity, definition and sharpness when wide open but fast too - this is YOUR GUY.

I have been using this lens for a few weeks now and I am very impressed by its performance and quality. It is a fast, sharp, and compact wide-angle prime lens that delivers stunning images on the sony a7III. The lens is very well built, with a metal barrel, a rubberized focus ring, and a manual aperture ring that can be de-clicked for smooth transitions. It also has a focus hold button, a focus mode switch, and a lockable lens hood. The lens is weather-sealed and dust-resistant, which is great for outdoor shooting. The autofocus is fast, silent, and accurate, thanks to the direct drive SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor) system. The lens works well with the sony a7III's eye AF and tracking modes, and I had no issues with focus hunting or missed shots. The manual focus is also smooth and precise, with a linear response and a good amount of resistance. The image quality is superb, with excellent sharpness, contrast, and color rendition. The lens resolves a lot of detail on the 24-megapixel sensor of the sony a7III, even at the widest aperture of f/1.4. The lens also has very low distortion, chromatic aberration, and coma, thanks to the advanced optical design that features two XA (extreme aspherical) elements, three ED (extra-low dispersion) elements, and a Nano AR coating. The lens produces beautiful bokeh, with smooth and circular out-of-focus highlights, thanks to the 11-blade circular aperture. The lens also has a very shallow depth of field at f/1.4, which allows for creative isolation of the subject from the background. The lens also handles flare and ghosting very well, even when shooting against the sun or bright lights. The lens is very versatile, as it can be used for a variety of genres, such as landscapes, street, portraits, weddings, astrophotography, and more. The 24mm focal length is wide enough to capture a lot of the scene, but not too wide to cause distortion or perspective issues. The f/1.4 aperture is ideal for low-light situations, as well as for creating a dramatic effect with the background blur. The lens is also very compact and lightweight, weighing only 445 g (0.98 lb), which makes it easy to carry around and balance on the sony a7III. The lens is much smaller and lighter than the Sigma 24mm F1.4 Art lens, which weighs 665 g (1.47 lb) and is 90 mm (3.55 in) long, compared to the Sony's 75.4 mm (2.97 in) length1. The only downside of this lens is the high price, which is $1,398 at the time of writing2. This is a premium lens that comes with a premium price tag, but I think it is worth it for the quality and performance that it delivers. This is one of the best wide-angle prime lenses that I have ever used, and I highly recommend it to anyone who owns a sony a7III or any other full-frame Sony mirrorless camera.

It became my all time favorite lens for everything! I am now able to capture big groups without stress. I can even use it to make all of my brides look taller! The amazing 24mm can do almost anything!

Really wanted to love this lens as I've wanted a faster prime than the sigma 14-24 I've been using, and at 24mm it definitely performs better in terms of sharpness and quality to the edges of the frame than both the sigma and the sony 24-105mm. However, I bought this lens explicitly for using wider apertures and at f1.4 to f2.0 the chromatic aberration is the worst I've experienced and feels disappointing from a lens in the GM category. I contacted customer support and the impression I got was the lens was functioning as well as it could - based on my experience if you're in the market for this I'd perhaps consider the Sony 20mm f1.8 or the Sigma 24mm prime instead!

I purchased the Sony GM 35mm 1.4 at another retailer along this 24mm 1.4 GM from Adorama. After a full day of testing both lenses were stellar on my Sony A7IV, but I fell in love with the 24mm focal length. I returned the 35mm GM and kept this lens and never looked back. My next venture will the Sony 14mm GM 1.8 and a Sony A7RV to round out my kit.

I purchased this lens open box and when I finally received it, it was just like new! Of course I get the full manufacturer warranty from Sony as well. This is the 2nd OB from Adorama and I?m blown away with the value and quality. This 24 GM is awesome attached to my A7 IV and is a blast to use. IQ is top notch. This is the best 24mm on the Sony platform!. I almost pulled the trigger on the Sigma 24mm 1.4 DG DN, but decided to give a first party lens a try for once. If you can find one OB from a reputable company like adorama, spend the little extra and get the full Sony GM experience. You won?t be sorry!

I wasn?t sure about whether it was worth spending the money on the 24mm f1.4 GM lens. Having used it for a couple of weeks I am really delighted with the lens. Love the sharpness, love the autofocus performance. It is very light for a F1.4 lens. There is a bit of flaring when shooting into the sun could but I think Sony have made all the right trade offs with this lens. I couldn?t be happier with it. This is my first GM lens. I suspect it may not be my last.

The best 24/1.4 you can buy from any system
By TheTog
It's not an exaggeration to say that Sony just made the best 24/1.4 out there. The most important points are that it's lighter than all modern 24/1.4 (including the Leica 24/1.4) and smaller than most (bigger than the Leica). Here is my own list of pros, so-so, and cons ***Pros*** + Lightest and smallest for its class so more enjoyable to use, more suitable for small Sony mirrorless bodies + Sharp corner-to-corner from WO, great stop down as well + Lowest sagittal coma in it class, great for...

What sets the Sony Alpha FE 24mm f/1.4 GM Lens apart is its exceptional blend of resolution, bokeh, and speed, making it an indispensable tool for photographers and videographers alike. Designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, this lens also performs admirably on APS-C sensor models, offering a versatile 36mm equivalent focal length.
The FE 24mm f/1.4 GM boasts a state-of-the-art optical design with 10 groups and 13 elements, including two XA (extreme aspherical) elements that minimize sagittal flare and ensure pinpoint stars for astrophotography enthusiasts. The three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements effectively eliminate chromatic aberrations, ensuring images with superb clarity, contrast, and color fidelity.
Sony's innovative Nano AR Coating is applied to each element, reducing lens flare and ghosting, which is particularly beneficial for landscape photography where sunlight can often cause issues. The f/1.4 maximum aperture is not just about low-light performance; it also provides exquisite control over depth of field, allowing for dramatic subject isolation and a pleasing bokeh effect.
The lens's 11-blade circular aperture is engineered to create beautifully round bokeh, with out-of-focus points of light rendered as perfect circles. This is especially noticeable when shooting with a shallow depth of field, where the lens's ability to maintain a near-circular aperture down to two stops from the maximum aperture comes into play.
Autofocus is swift and silent thanks to the Direct Drive Super Sonic Motor (DDSSM), which works in harmony with Sony's hybrid autofocus system. The precision internal focus mechanism contributes to the lens's speed by moving only the middle groups of the optical system, which also minimizes focus breathing - a significant advantage for video creators.
The FE 24mm f/1.4 GM is not only optically superior but also impressively compact and lightweight, weighing just 15.7oz (445g). Its dimensions make it the smallest in its class, enhancing its portability and making it a joy to carry on any photographic journey.
For added versatility, the lens includes a focus hold button that can be programmed for multiple functions, such as Eye AF, AF On, and more. The instant auto/manual focus selection switch allows for quick changes between focusing modes, ensuring you never miss a shot.
This bundle enhances your photographic experience with the inclusion of the Hoya NXT Plus 67mm UV+CPL Filter Kit, which protects your lens and reduces glare, a Cleaning Kit to keep your gear in top condition, and a Cleaning Cloth for smudge-free optics.
Embrace the full potential of your Sony E-mount system with the FE 24mm f/1.4 GM Lens, and capture the world with unparalleled clarity and beauty.
