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

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.

I started with the Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 in 14 and there were stretched stars in the corners (pincushion distortion) due to keeping vertical things straight but things are wider at the sides causing the stretching. All Sony lenses from the 1635,1224 and the early aps-c 1018 (1527) @ 12mm in FF f/4s had no pincushion. Example look at a time lapse of the MW going across the sky and look at the sides where the stars are wider apart and travel faster than the center stars like being in a fishbowl with curved glass (yes we are in a fishbowl). Things get worse the faster the the glass with all the different coma. I have used the Sigma lens for two years and had to use at 2.2 or 2.8 because of coma and pincushion. You may not see it but use Capture One it has a pincushion correction even without a lens profile and watch the foreground change. small and light also, just WOW!

Using an A7siii, 4k, full frame...no vignetting, little barreling (depending on the angle, of course), great clarity. One must use clip-in filters as the outer lens is spherical and wont accept a standard 82mm. No image stabilization as thats on-board the camera. Ive used it for both landscape and portrait with excellent results.

Amazing lens for landscape and low light.

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.

Esta focal justifica 1/1 su relación valor-precio. Baja o casi nula distorsión sobre un sensor full-frame. Nitidez sobresaliente aún para los estándares de la línea GM de Sony, esta focal es extraordinaria. Ideal para fotografía de paisaje, arquitectura, astro-fotografía, interiorismo o para establishing shots en video.

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!!

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.

Excellent Len. Favorite to use on my Sony
