This may come as something of a surprise, given that the firm\u2019s existing Distagon T* FE 35mm F1.4 ZA has been on the market for less than six years. But this latest optic is rather smaller and lighter, while offering a closer minimum focus distance. At \u00a31500, it\u2019ll arrive on the market for around \u00a3200 more than its predecessor\u2019s current street price.<\/p>\n\t\t<div  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 620px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Sony-FE-35mm-F1.4-GM-6.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"144733\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Sony-FE-35mm-F1.4-GM-6-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">The Sony FE 35mm F1.4 GM is nicely matched to the firm&#8217;s Alpha 7-series cameras<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<p>In terms of design, the new 35mm f\/1.4 takes its cues from Sony\u2019s other recent primes such as the excellent FE 24mm F1.4 GM. Its weather-sealed barrel sports an aperture ring that can be switched between clicked and smooth operation, along with an AF-stop button on the side. At 96mm in length, 76mm in diameter and 524g, it\u2019s 16mm shorter and over 100g lighter than its stablemate.<\/p>\n<p>It focuses down to 27cm, accepts 67mm filters, and employs an 11-bladed aperture diaphragm. Optically it makes use of two advanced aspherical elements and one extra-low dispersion glass element, while Sony\u2019s Nano AR coating II is employed to suppress flare and ghosting.<\/p>\n\t\t<div
