4 ZA and the venerable Zeiss 35mm F2. 8 for a long time, and the wait is finally over. Sony has just released the FE 35mm F1. 8: a fast medium wide-angle lens for its full-frame a7 and a9 cameras, which fills a hitherto gaping hole in the company's full-frame lens lineup.

The metal and plastic-bodied FE 35mm F1. 8 bears a close family resemblance to the older FE 28mm F2 and 85mm F1. 8, but costs substantially more than both, with an MSRP of $750/ durability as one of Sony's premium G Master-series optics.

Optical construction is relatively straightforward, comprising 11 elements in nine groups, with one aspherical element.

At 280g (~10 oz) this is the lightest lens of its kind, and offers fast autofocusing thanks to a linear focus motor, and a close focus distance of just 22cm (~9 inches). Linear focus response in MF mode will be welcomed by video shooters. In our initial testing, the FE 35mm F1. 8 has shown itself to be a sharp, versatile lens which is capable of rendering very pleasant background blur.
