The Night Queen

Dear Friends and Fellow Photographers, Welcome, Sorry I am not able to upload thev original file due large size and a screen shot would not justify. I bught this lens mostly for my upcoming Night sky and Milkyway shoot. But it can equally be used for landscape shoot. I randomly shot couple of green farm on road side and I was exremly hapy with result. The shots were emmersive as if it was wrapping the scene around. Almost similar like 12-24mm albiet considerably low in weight and smaller in size. It was tack sharp corner o corner. Great capture of color and contrast. I was extremly happy with this lens.Go for it.

Impressive and useful!

An impressive achievement in design and engineering! I use it on my A74 and this lens compliments my other glass. The FE 14mm 1.4 has given me a wonderful new tool to capture photos in an entirety new perspective. It's incredibly light, sharp, and versatile. I recently did some winter photography in -10 Fahrenheit and the lens performed without any problem. He's a sample below. Thank you Sony for your commitment to innovation and engineering excellence.

Amazing experience

From photographer perspective. Amazing lens. Thank you Sony for perfect product. With 14mm GM you can discover different view of photography. Street shooting is more exciting when you need come so close subject. Aberration in that situations almost doesn't exist. Shoots are sharp and cristal clear.(also in APS-C mode) Autofocus in close situations doesn't perform much but everything change when from street architecture you just turn to sunset and amazing landscape view in second or super wide lifestyle and then is incredibly Sony autofocus system. So multifunction lens. Solid build. Smooth focus ring. Custom button all futures are very smart and helpful.

This lens is a dream!

I shoot night images, and the stars are perfect with this lens. It's just sweet. So much better than the Rokinon and Samyang. Light weight. Trustworthy. Makes taking pictures FUN. I love the perspective and the beauty.

Excellent Piece of Glass!!!

Excellent clarity edge to edge. Not cheap, but it's a great tool to have at hand if you can afford it. This is the very edge of wide angle lenses, before the results get a bit goofy looking. If you already own the holy trinity of lenses, this is a nice addition.

Fantastic super wide angle lens!

The first thing you notice about this lens is just how small and light it is for such a wide and fast optic. I've added this to my bag for landscape and astro and it doesn't disappoint. The other great news is that you can now use 100mm filters in front of the glass which is perfect for my needs. highly recommended GM lens

Haida rear lens kit doesn't fit. The 14mm lens is amazing by itself

The lens is amazing, but the Haida rear kit they sent didn't fit this lens. It says it is made for the 12-24, and nothing indicates it actually is meant to fit the 14. There is something in the way preventing it from setting fully in place.

Good features & superb images

I bought this a few weeks ago and the lens has hardly been off my camera. I bought it mainly for astrophotography but I'm finding lots of other uses and it's great. Another bonus is it's very light and well balanced on my camera body.

Best lens I have used so far!

This lens was my first G master and it?s video clarity is absolutely amazing! I am using it on an A7C on a Ronin RS3 gimbal it is the perfect setup for real estate and vlogging. It is even good for close up portraits I see zero distortion with this lens.

Great lens but tricky to master

I've been considering a wide-angle lens for some time, trying to decide between wide-angle zoom (e.g. 16-35mm GM). In the end, the extra 2mm of 'stretch' swayed it for me. I am so pleased with the results (but still learning - e.g. attached Church picture has good perspective but not as sharp as I would like - my fault for not stopping down!). I've attached a few pictures showing perspective (church), 'getting it all in' (hanging sculpture in Wye Valley) and sun-stars (another sculpture)

Just a wonderful piece of glas.

Full stop! It is very light, easy to use, compact, lets in a lot of light, and creates a cool picture design. Really nothing to complain about.

Fantastic Lens

This lens is fantastic! I'm using it for interior real estate photos and landscapes and this lens performs flawlessly. Tack sharp and great focus. I wish it was cheaper but still worth every penny.

Just Good

I bought this three weeks ago and tried to take some city snapshot photos in HK. The lens coverage is good and only require a few steps forward or backwards to adjust. Happy with the lens performance. Besides, the size and weight of the lens are good and easy to carry.

Fantastic Lens

I do mostly landscape Phtography and switched to the 14mm GM for the advertised features. Light weight, fast aperture, and sharp photos. I switched from the Sigma 14-24 and very happy I did.

Pair it with the A7C

This ultra-wide prime is a great street photography lens. I paired it with A7C, and it was a good compact pair that took fantastic photos.

More than I expected

This was a great solution for a ultra wide shots. It doesn?t suffer from the extreme distortion you find from zoom lenses which is one of the main reasons I bought this product. It?s lightweight sharp and fast. If you are in need of an Ultra Wide Prime lens I highly recommend this lens and I find myself using it situation I didn?t think I would need an Ultra Wide.

14mm/1.8 is small, light and sharp

Incredibly light considering the focal length/f-stop combination. Extremely sharp and love the bokeh when using it wide open. Have to be careful with dof if your goal is to get near to far objects in focus when using f8 and f11, using hyperfocal distance settings is important. Haven't had the oppportunity to do a Milky Way image yet.

Love this wide angle lens. It?s super sharp and fast. Great for my landscape hikes as well as Astro. Will be using this more than my 16-35GM due to the size and weight.

Sony FE 14mm f/1.8 GM.

This large-aperture ultra-wide-angle prime lens offers G Master quality in an innovative design that is incredibly compact. Advanced technology achieves breathtaking resolution plus exquisite bokeh even at maximum F1.8 aperture. Add fast, precise AF and extraordinary mobility, and you have a lens that can capture fresh views of everyday scenes.

Spectacular Image Wide Resolution.

Spectacular Image Wide Resolution All The Way To F/1.8.

Two XA (extreme aspherical) elements in a design that meets stringent G Master standards achieve outstanding corner-to-corner resolution all the way up to the lens's maximum F1.8 aperture. One Super ED (Extra-low Dispersion) and two ED glass elements thoroughly suppress color bleeding for outstanding image-wide sharpness and clarity, while Sony's Nano AR Coating II effectively minimizes flare and ghosting.

Large Aperture, Ultra-Wide Perspectives In An Incredibly Compact Lens.

Large Aperture, Ultra-Wide Perspectives In An Incredibly Compact Lens.

Precision aspherical elements including two ultra-precise XA elements in an innovative G Master optical design work with two of Sony's state-of-the-art XD Linear Motors to realize extraordinary overall performance in a remarkably compact lens that weighs just 16 ounces. This is one ultra-wide large-aperture lens you carry around anywhere, reshaping the world with creative new perspectives.

Capture The Night.

Capture The Night Skies.

Adding to the versatility provided by its large aperture and ultra-wide angle of view, advanced optics with a high-curvature XA front element minimize sagittal flare when shooting starry skies and other night scenes. The large F1.8 maximum aperture allows low-light shooting without having to use extremely slow shutter speeds, while compact dimensions let you shoot anywhere with ease.

Buttery Smooth Bokeh.

Buttery Smooth Bokeh.

With precise XA elements, a nine-blade circular aperture mechanism, and optimally managed aberration, this unique ultra-wide lens is capable of creating exquisite background bokeh without unwanted onion-ring artifacts. Minimum focus distance is just 0.82 ft, so you can move right in to combine dynamic close-ups with beautiful bokeh in expansive backgrounds.

Fast, Precise, Quiet AF For Still & Films.

Fast, Precise, Quiet AF For Still & Films.

Two XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors provide the thrust efficiency required to accurately position the lens's focus groups, achieving fast, precise, quiet AF performance that maximizes the speed potential of E-mount bodies. Quiet, low-vibration AF is an unprecedented advantage for shooting movies with ultra-wide angles, while mobility and fast response give creators the freedom to work effectively with any subject.

Outstanding Reliability For Any Application.

Outstanding Reliability For Any Application.

In addition to a fluorine coating on the front element that repels water, oil, and other contaminants, the rear element is also fluorine-coated to keep that surface clean when changing the rear filter. A dust and moisture resistant design maximizes reliability when using this large-aperture ultra-wide-angle lens in challenging outdoor conditions.

Features.

  • F1.8 max aperture for low-light and shallow depth of field
  • Two XA (Extreme Aspheric) elements for stunning resolution and bokeh
  • One Super ED and Two ED glass elements reduce chromatic aberration
  • Nano AR coating II suppresses reflections, flare and ghosting
