Product Description

A dynamic ultra-wide-angle focal length with an especially bright design, the FE 14mm f/1.8 GM from Sony is a fast, versatile lens well-suited to landscape, nature, architecture, and street photography. Its extremely wide-but-usable perspective is complemented by the f/1.8 maximum aperture for excellent performance in low-light conditions and increased control over depth of field. The optical design incorporates two extra-low dispersion elements and one super ED element to reduce chromatic aberrations, plus two XA (extreme aspherical) elements that significantly control spherical aberrations for a high degree of image sharpness and clarity. Nano AR II coating has been applied to limit ghosting and lens flare for increased contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.

 

  • Two XD Linear Focus Actuators provide quick and quiet focus and also lend more responsive control for manual focus operation. A minimum focus of just 9.8" and an ultra-wide field of view opens a new world of deep perspective close-up photography.
  • The lens has a dust- and moisture-sealed design and fluorine-coated front lens element to support shooting in inclement conditions and a dedicated focus hold button, AF/MF switch, and manual aperture ring lend further control while shooting.
  • As part of Sony's premium G Master series, this lens is designed to achieve notably high resolution and sharpness through the correction of a wide variety of spherical and chromatic aberrations. Additionally, these lenses feature robust and intuitive-to-handle physical designs to benefit both photography and cine applications.
  • Versatile ultra-wide-angle prime is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras; however, it can also be used on APS-C models where it provides a 27mm equivalent focal length.
  • Notably fast f/1.8 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field.
  • One aspheric element and two XA elements are incorporated into the optical design, which features superior surface precision for effective control over astigmatism, field curvature, coma, and other spherical aberrations.
  • Two ED and one Super ED extra-low dispersion elements are incorporated in the lens design and help reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved clarity and color neutrality.
  • All-optical surfaces feature Nano AR II Coating to reduce surface reflections, flare, and ghosting for increased contrast and color rendering in strong lighting conditions.
  • Dual XD linear Autofocus actuators and an internal focus mechanism provide quick, quiet, and precise autofocus performance and contribute to more natural, intuitive manual focus control.
  • A focus hold button is present on the lens barrel for intuitive tactile control and rapid access to select programmable settings. 
  • The physical aperture ring can be de-clicked for smooth, silent aperture switching to benefit video applications. The ring also incorporates a locking "A" position for use in automated exposure modes.
  •  Dust- and moisture-sealed design better permits working in inclement conditions and rubberized control rings benefit handling in colder temperatures.
  • Fluorine-coated front element resists dust, moisture, and fingerprints and is easy to clean.
  • The rounded diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques.

New views from a 14 mm F1.8 masterpiece

This large-aperture ultra-wide-angle prime lens offers G Master quality in an innovative design that is incredibly compact. Industry leading technology achieves breathtaking resolution plus exquisite bokeh even at maximum F1.8 aperture. Fast, precise AF plus extraordinary mobility and control give your creative imagination the freedom it deserves.

Eye-opening resolution even at F1.8

Two XA (extreme aspherical) elements in a G Master design achieve outstanding corner-to-corner resolution even at maximum F1.8 aperture. One Super ED (Extra-low Dispersion) and two ED glass elements thoroughly suppress colour bleeding, while advanced overall optical design minimises sagittal flare for ideal rendering of point sources.

Bright, ultra-wide, and incredibly compact

Precise aspherical elements including two ultra-precise XA elements in an innovative G Master optical design work with two of Sony's state-of-the-art XD Linear Motors to achieve extraordinary performance in a remarkably compact lens that weighs just 16 ounces. Take this lens everywhere and reshape the world with creative new perspectives.Learn more about lenses.

Clear, bleed-free colour

Two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements that are effective in correcting for chromatic aberration are combined with a Super ED glass element that provides even stronger chromatic compensation for excellent contrast and precise rendering throughout the image area.Learn more about Super ED.

Beautifully rendered night skies

Advanced optics with a high-curvature XA (extreme aspherical) front element minimise sagittal flare when shooting starry skies and other night scenes. The large F1.8 maximum aperture allows low-light shooting without having to use extremely slow shutter speeds, while compact dimensions let you shoot anywhere with ease.

Exquisite ultra-wide bokeh

With a 9-blade circular aperture mechanism and optimal application of two XA elements, this unique ultra-wide lens lets you emphasise subjects with dynamic close-up perspectives while creating beautiful bokeh in deep, expansive backgrounds.Learn more about Circular Aperture.

Dynamic close-ups with beautiful bokeh

Two XA elements and one aspherical element in a carefully designed optical system offer a minimum focus distance of just 0.82 ft, so you can move right in to shoot dynamic close-ups while taking advantage of the F1.8 maximum aperture to create extraordinarily beautiful background bokeh.

Nano AR Coating II maximises clarity

The sun often ends up in difficult positions when shooting outdoors with an ultra-wide lens, sometimes causing unwanted flare and ghosting. Sony's original Nano AR Coating II technology produces a uniform anti-reflection coating on lens surfaces, effectively subduing flare and ghosting in tricky lighting conditions.Learn more about Nano AR II.

Precise, quiet AF for stills and movies

Two XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors rapidly and precisely position this lens's large, heavy focus groups for fast, accurate, quiet AF performance that maximizes the speed potential of E-mount bodies. Quiet, low-vibration AF is a huge advantage when shooting movies, while compact mobility and fast response provide unrestrained creative freedom.Learn more about the XD Linear Motor.

Intuitive manual focus control

Linear Response MF ensures that the focus ring responds directly and linearly to subtle control when focusing manually. Focus ring rotation translates directly to a corresponding change in focus, similar to the response of a mechanical focus system. Control is immediate and precise, so your creative intent is manifest without delay.Learn more about the Linear Response MF.

Customizable focus hold button

A variety of functions can be assigned to the lens's focus hold button from the camera body interface to suit individual shooting preferences. You could assign the Focus Magnifier function, for example, allowing fingertip control of focus magnification for pinpoint manual focus.Learn more about the Focus Hold Button.

Aperture ring with click-stop switch

An aperture ring that allows intuitive aperture control is provided, with click stops that can be switched on or off as needed. Turn the click stops on for tactile feedback that lets you "feel" the stops, or off when smooth, continuous, silent aperture control supported by the lens's XD Linear Motors is required.  Learn more about the I/A click.

Outstanding reliability for any application

In addition to a fluorine coating on the front element that repels water, oil, and other contaminants, the rear element is also fluorine-coated to keep that surface clean when changing the rear filter. A dust and moisture resistant design maximizes reliability when using this large-aperture ultra-wide-angle lens in challenging outdoor conditions.Learn more about Dust and Moisture-Resistant Design.

I am a cosmetic dentist so my photography is very important to me. I needed my camera set up for ease of use and custom settings. Jesse and Sam are so knowledgeable. Those two men helped me quickly and the Pixel store is open until 7 pm so I was able to get this done before my next working day! I also noticed Pixel has everything one needs for cameras, video and audio, social media, drones and even film! Check this store out for yourself for quality service and products!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My latest experience with ThePixelConnection was absolutely phenomenal. Matt and Ari went above and beyond to ensure I got the camera I needed, even when it seemed impossible. The item I needed was out of stock everywhere else, but they didn’t stop there—they took the extra step to contact the manufacturer directly and managed to secure a new unit straight from the factory. Thanks to their incredible effort, I received my camera just in time for an important event. What truly sets ThePixelConnection apart is the personal touch they bring to every interaction. Unlike my experiences with B&H—which, while efficient and resourceful, often feel very clinical and transactional—ThePixelConnection makes you feel like a genuinely valued customer. I’ve worked with B&H for years and spent a small fortune with them, but if ThePixelConnection has what I need, they’re always my first choice. Their team is passionate, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to ensuring you get exactly what you’re looking for. Matt, in particular, is a seasoned professional with extensive expertise in photography and their product lineup. His guidance and dedication made the entire process effortless and stress-free. If you’re looking for exceptional service from a team that truly values its customers, look no further than ThePixelConnection. They’ve earned my loyalty, and I can’t recommend them highly enough!

Very personable and knowledgeable gentleman. I am a very enthusiastic amateur photographer. But every time I buy a new camera, it seems the old camera knowledge doesn't carry over to the new camera.so it's helpful to have access to folks who can lead you around the new terrain. That's why it's best to buy certain items like cameras from where cameras are their only business. So thank you for the new R8 and the lesson!!
