This medium-wide-angle prime, with its bright f/2.8 maximum aperture, is sure to be on a lot of photographer's wish lists.

One of the big advantages of having a camera that uses Sony's E-mount system is the continued addition of premium lenses from Zeiss.

This medium-wide-angle prime, with its bright f/2.8 maximum aperture, is sure to be on a lot of photographer's wish lists.

With its superb image quality and compact dimensions, this is designed to be a daily-use lens, well-suited to the fast-developing shooting opportunities that travel and social events provide. A maximum aperture of f/2.8 means this lens is up to low-light challenges, while its versatile 35mm focal length gives you ample working distances for wedding photography and interiors, as well as recording vibrant landscapes or just great all-around shooting.

Features

Optics: The Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* (T-Star) FE 35mm F2.8 ZA (SEL35F28Z) wide angle prime lens is compatible with the Sony α interchangeable lens cameras with the E-mount. It cannot be used on a camera with the Sony A-mount. The lens has a focal length of 35mm with 35mm full frame cameras like the new A7 (ILCE7 and 7R), and 52.5mm on NEX-series cameras with APS-C-sized image sensors. It comes with the ALC-SH129 lens hood, and front and rear lens caps.

Carl Zeiss T* Coating: The SEL35F28Z lens was developed jointly by Carl Zeiss and Sony, and is produced under the strict standards and quality assurance of Carl Zeiss. The Carl Zeiss T* (T-Star) coating virtually eliminates the lens flare, internal reflection, and light scattering that can occur at glass-to-air surfaces.

Focusing: The lens can be used in the auto-focus, direct manual focus, or manual focus modes. You can switch between focusing modes in the camera menu. In Direct Manual focus, you can fine-tune the focus by turning the focusing ring after initially auto-focusing. Manual focusing is performed with the focusing ring as well.

Dust/Moisture Resistant: While the SEL35F28Z isn't waterproof, critical areas of the lens exterior have dust- and moisture-resistant seals to help ensure professional reliability in tough environments.

Lens Hood: The lens comes with the compact ALC-SH129 cap-type lens hood which matches the lens' compact form. When installed, the lens hood adds only 1/2" to the overall length of the lens. The hood comes out of the box installed on the lens with the 40.5mm diameter lens cap. When the hood is removed, the lens has a 49mm filter diameter. To use the supplied lens cap, you must install the hood, or else purchase a separate 49mm lens cap to use when not using the hood.
