Combining a favored wide-angle focal length with an especially bright design, the FE 24mm f/1.4 GM from Sony is a fast, versatile lens well-suited to landscape, nature, and street photography. Its wide-but-usable perspective is complemented by the f/1.4 maximum aperture, which excels in low-light conditions and also offers increased control over depth of field. The optical design incorporates three extra-low dispersion elements to reduce chromatic aberrations and two XA (extreme aspherical) elements, which significantly control spherical aberrations for a high degree of image sharpness and clarity. Additionally, a Nano AR coating has been applied to limit ghosting and lens flare for increased contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.

For controlling focus, a Direct Drive SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor) is employed that is quick and quiet, and also lends more responsive control for manual focus operation. The lens also sports 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 esteemed 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 wide-angle prime is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, however can also be used on APS-C models       where it provides a 36mm equivalent focal length.

- Notably fast f/1.4 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field.

- 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.

- Three extra-low dispersion elements are featured in the lens design and help to reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing for   improved clarity and color neutrality.

- A Nano AR Coating has been applied to reduce surface reflections, flare, and ghosting for increased contrast and color rendering in   strong lighting conditions.

- A Direct Drive Super Sonic wave Motor AF system and internal focus mechanism provides quick, quiet, and precise autofocus   performance and also contributes 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 settings.

- Physical aperture ring can be de-clicked for smooth, silent aperture switching to benefit video applications.

- 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.

- Rounded 11-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques.
