Review Summary

I've bought it two weeks ago and only used it few times, but from what I can see it's amazing lens, very sharp, great bokeh and really good color rendering. So far love it, therr is slight CA wide open but only tiny bit and can be easy corrected in post.

There is a reason so many of us photographers, Videographers and social content creators buy a 35mm. I have taken and captured my best work on this lens. Paired with a sony body, the competition doesn't come close.

It's a substantial purchase for anyone but I was very pleased with what I've got for my money. 35mm is a very versatile focal length so I've been able to take photos of everything so far. And the sharpness of the lens I'm sure has allowed me to crop in a little more too. It's also not huge and not too heavy. If you're trying to go with a one-lens set-up as I am, and you want the best quality, look no further.

The 35mm gm is one of my favorite lens. The performance is amazing and on point for what I like to do.

I am exceedingly picky about 35mm fast primes. I have generally had to sacrifice weight in order to have great optical performance, and I have seldom been impressed with autofocus speed. The 35GM changed all of that! The GM is a stellar lens from its nice minimum focus distance out to infinity, and everything in between. It is rare to find a lens this incredibly sharp that also has such a lovely bokeh. To top it off, the autofocus is essentially faster than you can think about what you would like to focus on, and all of those features land in a modest weight body, and you get one incredible lens. An added bonus for this lens is that its rendering matches that of the 50/1.2GM and the 135GM. I can use all of them in the same shoot and have the same look to the images. Home run, Sony!

Sharp and contrast lens Doesn't have 3d pop and is a little expensive. Otherwise it's brilliant.

Good lens, I however did expect a little more out of a G Master lens. It does struggle quite a bit to autofocus

Long story short, this lens is permanently attached to my camera. For my needs, no matter what I'm doing or where I'm going, I know the 35mm will do the job beautifully. Enough width for landscapes, perfect for street and travel, and low enough distortion for beautiful environmental portraits and product photography. The lens is close focusing and absolutely razor sharp. If you want to call it a negative, the barrel is plastic but it's high quality and very resistant to wear and impacts, more so than painted metal. Sony have hit an absolute home run. This is an all-time great 35mm lens by anyone's standards.

This is the first Sony prime lens I've owned, It's light, compact, performs superbly and the image results are fantastic, I've only used it in a studio at the moment, It will be my go to lens for street and location and travel photography.

As a Sony GM lens you can expect it's going to be good.and it certainly is. Sharp and great in low light.

I bought this lens then exchanged it for a replcement. Both times, immediately on opening there was lint on the inside of the lens @ the rear. My 3rd lens should be arriving next week. Hopefully 3rd time is perfect. The lens is supposedly weather sealed. There shouldnt be dust/lint inside the lens.

The lens is amazing. The tripod is a good value and is sturdy, which makes the bundle a good deal. The filters are garbage and do but belong on a GM lens. I don't trust the cleaning kit for use on this lens but I will use it to clean cell phones and tablets.

I bought this Len coz I would like to learn Portrait Photographing, but to begin with I start with a 35mm Len to get acquaintance with my also newly bought A7RIV. After some time, maybe around half year I am going to buy another GM Len most probably the 85mm f/1.4

I've been extremely impressed with this lens, sharp, fast focussing and beautiful rendering with great subject 'pop' and lovely bokeh. CA's are extremely well controlled. The only negative I can find is that there's very slight optical vignetting at the wide apertures, but it's well controlled and better than a lot of lenses.

I definitely recommend this lens. The photos are clear, and the 35mm allows me to shoot wider in smaller spaces. My photos are for boudoir, and this lens allows me to get a full body photo in small spaces. Automatically, I ordered an ND Filter so that I can keep my aperture wide open, and still get great shots with or without flash.

The only lens you need
By Danny Q.
Just received mines earlier this morning and i must say this lens is PERFECT!! It's small and lightweight compared to the sigma version. Bought this lens for car photography but to be honest, this focal length is super versatile and can be used for any type of style! Definitely 1 to have in your camera bag. Build quality is A++ and it's very sharp! Haven't seen anyone post theirs yet so thank you for the quick shipping Adorama.
Just Release It Already!!!

A small, bright 35 for breathtaking images
Sony's most advanced technology is packed into this high-performance E-mount lens, delivering eye-opening G Master resolution and bokeh with extraordinary AF speed and precision. For a large aperture 35-mm lens it is remarkably compact, and a great choice for applications where an ideal blend of mobility and superb image quality is required.
Amazing resolution in a compact 35-mm prime for any situation
Two XA (extreme aspherical) elements in a G Master design take advantage of the short mirrorless flange-back distance to deliver stunning contrast and resolution in a compact lens. Further enhancing the lens's superior optical quality are an ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element that suppresses chromatic aberration and Sony's Nano AR Coating II that maintains superb image clarity even in any lighting conditions.
Lightweight and compact for excellent mobility and handling
Even though it employs two precision XA (extreme aspherical) elements and delivers outstanding G Master quality, this compact lens fits easily in the palm of your hand and weighs only 18.5 oz (524 g). The FE 35 mm F1.4 GM offers excellent mobility and handling in the widest possible range of environments and shooting conditions.
Refined G Master bokeh and broad versatility
XA elements suppress onion ring bokeh, an 11-blade aperture mechanism produces an almost circular aperture even when the lens is wide open, and painstaking spherical aberration control at the design and manufacturing stages contribute to gorgeous bokeh at F1.4. Design and manufacturing refinements have made it possible to deliver a minimum focusing distance of 0.89 ft (27 cm) and maximum magnification of 0.23x.
XD Linear Motors ensure fast, precise, quiet AF and tracking
Two of Sony's remarkable XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors provide the high thrust efficiency needed for fast, precise, quiet AF and tracking, maximizing the advantages of the E-mount system. State-of-the-art control algorithms developed specifically for the XD Linear Motors minimize vibration and noise, while Sony's Linear Response MF feature provides direct, linear manual focus response.
Professional control and reliability
A focus hold button, focus ring, and other controls support smooth, efficient operation. The focus hold button can be assigned to a number of other functions via a camera body menu, providing direct access to functions that are vital to the user's personal workflow. A fluorine front element coating plus a dust- and moisture-resistant design ensure high reliability in challenging environments.
Lens Configuration
G Master series lenses take imaging and expression to previously unattainable levels with a stunning blend of extremely high resolution and softly dissolving background bokeh.
MTF Chart
MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) describes how well a lens can reproduce fine details, measured as the degree of contrast achieved between finely spaced lines.
Features
Palm-size 35 mm F1.4 prime
Sony's most advanced optical design and manufacturing technology delivers extraordinary resolution and gorgeous bokeh in a very compact lens. Offering G Master quality in an eminently portable lens for all occasions, this is a must-have for serious E-mount users.
Spectacular resolution in a compact design
Advanced optical technology takes advantage of the short mirrorless flange-back distance to reduce overall length and diameter in a surprisingly compact lens that delivers stunning contrast and resolution. Two XA (extreme aspherical) elements suppress sagittal coma flare so you can capture your subjects with extraordinary sharpness and clarity.
Compact mobility and easy handling
This compact lens fits easily in the palm of your hand and weighs a mere 18.5 oz (524 g), providing outstanding mobility and handling in the widest possible range of environments and shooting conditions. The FE 35 mm F1.4 GM offers first-class quality that you can take anywhere.
Refined bokeh and broad versatility
Striking bokeh, a characteristic of the G Master series, can really make portrait and other subjects stand out. XA elements that effectively suppress onion ring bokeh, an 11-blade circular aperture mechanism, and painstaking spherical aberration control at the design and manufacturing stages add up to smooth, beautiful bokeh.
Clean, natural color
This compact lens is not only mobile and manageable, but performs admirably in difficult lighting as well. An ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element and other optical refinements effectively suppress chromatic aberration and purple fringing for clean, natural-looking images and fast, easy post-shoot editing.
Versatile close-up capability
XA lens elements and innovative optical design achieve a minimum focusing distance of just 0.89 ft (27 cm) and maximum magnification of 0.23x, making it possible to shoot impressive close-ups with smooth, creamy background bokeh. The flexibility to choose your shooting distance affords plenty of control for stills as well as movies.
Nano AR Coating II cuts flare and ghosting
The mobility of this compact 35-mm lens means that it is likely to be used in a wide variety of situations, including strong sunlight and backlighting. Sony's new Nano AR Coating II is evenly applied to entire element surfaces, effectively minimizing flare and ghosting for clear, crisp imagery even in challenging light.
Natural, linear manual focus response
Linear Response MF ensures that the focus ring responds directly and linearly for subtle control when focusing manually. Focus ring rotation translates directly to a corresponding change in focus, so control feels immediate and precise. Linear Response MF is ideal for creative focusing effects when shooting stills and movies.
XD Linear Motors ensure fast, precise, quiet AF and tracking
Sony's small-but-powerful XD Linear Motors contribute to fast, precise autofocus and tracking, maximizing the AF performance capabilities of advanced E-mount bodies to capture meaningful moments in street snapshots, fleeting expressions in portraits, and much more. AF operation is quiet with minimal vibration.
Dust and moisture-resistant design
A dust- and moisture-resistant design provides the reliability needed for outdoor use in challenging conditions.
Easy manual focus/autofocus switching
A focus mode switch that allows instant switching between auto and manual focus mode can be a great advantage when shooting subjects or situations that require fine manual focus adjustment.
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 do become attached to the lens surface.
