SONY LENS 50mm F1.4 G-master embodies the essence of the G Master series, delivering exceptional image quality, stunning bokeh, and remarkable portability in a compact and lightweight design. This versatile prime lens is ideal for photographers of all skill levels, offering the power to capture captivating portraits, dynamic street scenes, and evocative landscapes with exceptional clarity and artistic expression.

Uncompromising Sharpness from Corner to Corner

The FE 50mm F1.4 GM prioritizes image quality throughout the entire frame. Sony’s advanced optical design features two high-precision XA (extreme aspherical) elements. These innovative elements effectively correct distortion and various aberrations, ensuring edge-to-edge sharpness and exceptional resolution. This commitment to exceptional detail is further enhanced by the inclusion of an ED (extra-low dispersion) glass element. This element combats chromatic aberration, a common issue that can manifest as unwanted color fringing, ensuring your images are sharp, clear, and free from color bleeding.

Unrivaled G Master Bokeh: Beyond Sharpness

The FE 50mm F1.4 GM isn’t just about capturing sharp images; it excels in creating the beautiful, signature bokeh that is synonymous with the G Master series. This is achieved through a combination of innovative optics and the fast f/1.4 maximum aperture. The XA elements effectively prevent unwanted “onion ring” bokeh artifacts, while meticulous optimization of spherical aberration during the design and manufacturing stages contributes to smooth, natural bokeh with minimal color bleeding. Additionally, the 11-blade circular aperture plays a crucial role, producing captivating bokeh effects at the widest aperture settings. This allows you to isolate your subject and create a sense of depth and dimension in your images, adding a touch of artistic flair to your photography.

Remarkably Compact and Lightweight Design

Despite its exceptional performance, the FE 50mm F1.4 GM defies expectations with its remarkably compact and lightweight design. This is a testament to Sony’s commitment to cutting-edge optical technology. The lens features strategically placed XA elements, high-thrust XD linear motors for rapid focusing, and a compact circular aperture unit. This innovative combination results in a large-aperture lens that is surprisingly manageable, measuring only 80.6 mm in diameter and 96.0 mm in length, while weighing a mere 516 grams (18.3 oz). This makes the FE 50mm F1.4 GM an ideal companion for photographers who value both exceptional image quality and portability, allowing them to capture the world around them with ease.

Explore the World in Close-Up Detail

The FE 50mm F1.4 GM offers impressive close-up capabilities, allowing you to explore intricate details and creative perspectives. The minimum focusing distance of 0.41 meters (1.35 ft) and a maximum magnification of 0.16x (when using autofocus) provide ample flexibility for both still photography and videography. The XA elements ensure exceptional sharpness at all focusing distances, while the smooth and deep bokeh at f/1.4 beautifully separates your subject from the background, creating a captivating visual effect.

Fast, Precise, and Quiet Autofocus Performance

The FE 50mm F1.4 GM is built for performance. It seamlessly integrates with Sony’s α series camera bodies, maximizing their autofocus potential. This translates to the ability to quickly acquire focus on your subjects, even when using shallow depth-of-field techniques, ensuring you never miss a critical shot. Sony’s high-thrust XD linear motors and an advanced control algorithm work in harmony to deliver smooth, responsive focus tracking for both stills and video.

Intuitive Manual Focus Control for Creative Expression

For photographers who prefer the precision and creative control of manual focus, the FE 50mm F1.4 GM offers a delightful user experience. The Linear Response MF system ensures that the focus ring responds directly and linearly to your touch, allowing for precise and intuitive control over focus placement. This responsiveness translates your creative vision directly into stunning imagery, perfect for situations where meticulous focus control is paramount.

Silent Operation for Seamless Video Recording

The FE 50mm F1.4 GM is not just a photographer’s dream lens; it’s also a valuable tool for videographers. The XD linear motors and the advanced control algorithm work together to optimize response to focus signals, ensuring precise and quiet autofocus operation. This translates to minimized vibrations and refined, quiet AF performance, a significant advantage when shooting video, especially at high frame rates. Additionally, the lens supports the breathing compensation function found in compatible Sony α series cameras, further enhancing the overall video shooting experience by maintaining a consistent image angle throughout focus adjustments.
