Sony FE 14mm F1.8 GM Full-Frame Large-Aperture Wide Angle Prime G Master Lens

Amazing lens for landscape and low light.

This lens is amazing! It is so light and compact. Its astoundingly sharp, and the colors looks so good! You can get some really great sunburst effects. At its widest opening, you get some amazingly sharpy photos. I have really come to love this lens for some street photography. You can fit so much of the bigger buildings in a photo. I need to take it out for some astrophotography next, will update this review after.

I’ve only had this lens a couple of days but I already love it. I handles beautifully. It’s crazy light for. I tried out the 12-24 GM and just couldn’t get excited about such a big heavy lens with a relatively limited zoom range, esp since I already own and love the 16-35 GM. This is a perfect compliment to the 16-35, for the wider perspective and the faster 1.8 aperture for astro shots. Excellent lens.

Sharpest, widest lens in my Arsenal with a fast 1.8 is hard to find especially at this weight. Very light and this lens does a extremely good job minimizing distortions. It’s incredible. Im usually hesitant with lens that cost close to 2 grand but with this lens I did not disappoint or regret.

I have been trying to get back into photography again. Like most people on a budget, I was hesitant to buy an ultra-wide prime lens. My kit til now was just up to the kit lens and the Sony 90mm macro (another great lens). I wanted good fast prime lens, and was mostly looking into 35-50mm lens that are typically recommended for general use, but then ran into this beast.

For an open wide F1.8 14mm youre not gonna find a better lens for Sony E mount. Worth every dollar. Buy it nice so you dont buy it twice.

There was no indication in the used item description that the lens would be missing the lens cap.

For a milky way photography enthusiast, this lens achieves the holy trinity of fast (f1.8), sharp, and light (460 grams or 1 pound). The last quality is important for me since I often go to remote places for my milky way photos (the attached shot was in Great Basin National Park at ~11000 ft. which took 4 miles of hiking to get to). My other wide angle lens is the Sony-Zeiss 16-35 F4, this F1.8 is noticeably lighter than that lens!!

If you want that fish eye effect it tight spaces. This is it. Works great indoors and in tight spaces to capture more. I would of went for the g master 12-24 2.8 but it was pricier. If you want to use filters you have to place it behind the lens close to where the sensor meets the lens attachment. It requires taking out three screws.
