A magnificent medium-telephoto prime

A standout performer among medium telephoto primes, this superlative ZEISS® Sonnar® design satisfies the most demanding technical requirements as well as artistic needs.

Exceptional contrast and realistic rendering

Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements effectively compensate for chromatic aberration, supporting high resolving power and stunning contrast even at wider apertures.

Sharp subjects backed by smooth bokeh

An F1.8 maximum aperture and 9-blade circular aperture design offer broad depth of field control for razor-sharp foregrounds with smooth background bokeh when required.

Get close for small subjects and details

This lens can focus as close as 2.36 ft for a 0.25x magnification ratio that makes it possible to capture small subjects and details with excellent quality.


Lens Configuration

Legendary ZEISS® quality manufactured and calibrated specifically for Sony imaging products. The T* coating contributes to exquisite rendering and contrast.
