Andy Westlake tests a sensational premium large-aperture prime for Sony’s full-frame mirrorless cameras
Sony has been building up its full-frame mirrorless lens range longer than anyone else, having launched its Alpha 7 system back in 2013. As it’s gained experience in making high-end optics to meet the demands of high-resolution sensors, the firm has also refined its design philosophy. Its early efforts were often criticised for being too large and heavy, but its more recent lenses have delivered stellar performance in a more compact form, exemplified by the superb FE 24mm F1.4 GM. Now, it’s applied the same idea to the 35mm focal length.
