This lens isn't the latest or "greatest" but for video shooters, it's definitely one to check out. Especially if your camera doesnt support focus breathing compensation.
Great, concise review! Definitely planning to pick this lens up.
Like the compactness of your review. Had the both sigma 1.4 versions of 35mm but sold them both. Now back to this little baby. It’s so fast and the minimum focus distance is very helpful
How Sigma 35mm f1.4 compare to this lens?
I've been using the Zeiss 35 1.4 since 2017. Love it, but thinking of downsizing for overseas shooting. The size difference is amazing.. I might test it out before purchasing.
Underrated UA-camr. Phenomenal video, awesome UA-camr
Thank you for the kind words!! 🙌
I sold this to get the 1.4 Gm. I should've kept it. The gm is better for photos but the focus breathing is terrible for video. The 35mm 1.8 is way better for video and gimbal work. It's also a nice street lens because of it's size.
Ive done opposite after owning gm 35 for 1 month i had nothing but problems with video and yes focus breathing was most important factor hence why i sold mine!
@@Arri. same reason why I am not buying the 1.4gm and instead getting this. I have the 50mm 1.2gm it angers me that sony gave a big middle finger to videographers in their flag ship lenses. Its beyond annoying the focus breathing on 35mm gm looks like a zoom lens 😂
How do you feel about the video quality as far as the image goes?
@@switchunboxing the image quality on the gm lenses are top notch.
I will notice GM flaws. I like hybrid shoot. Why spending on GM 35mm when you can get for half price this 35mm?
hi there. i dont do video. Aside of build quality, what else that GM has better than this lens? I have budget for GM but Im wondering if I should take this lens instead. Im casual photographer that mostly shoot while traveling or family events.
This or the zeiss 55mm t lens or the 85mm Sony lads?
Will these be sharper then 24-70 gm ii?
Thanks-great, concise review! I wonder how this compares with the 40mm f/2.5 sony lens (besides the obvious specs differences).
Thanks Ben, I’ve never used the Sony 40mm - will try to get my hands on one!
Great review. Just got one on Black Friday for £399. Been eyeing it for long time
Solid deal on this lens brand new!
@@keith-knittel love it so far
Ooo where from
yep just pulled the trigger in 2023 on the Prime Day ;-)
@@alan-sk7kylol same. Hope I ain’t disappointed
I own the g master and legit consider this one for it's portability factor.
I love using the 35mm 1.8 for travel videos and packing light. Definitely has a spot in my bag
I was looking for the answer that the ring on this lens is focus ring or aperture ring, I watched many reviews but non of them talked about it, until I watched your review,thanks😂
🙌🙌🙌🙌
I love this lens on the FX6 and A7 IV. Value, quality
Can I ask, does it handle auto focus ok? Also, does it give a nice image? I've heard mixed reviews
is it bettr than sigma 35 1.4 dg dn?
Hi! I lost my cap for my lens, do you know which one I can find on amazon? the size for them?
JJC Dedicated Lens Hood Sunshade for Sony E 35mm f/1.8 OSS SEL35F18 , Sony FE 28mm f/2.0 SEL28F20 , E 16mm f/2.8 SEL16F28 Pancake Lens , E 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS SEL1855 on A7 A6300 A6000 as ALC-SH112
BTW, this is almost exactly the same size as the 1.8/55 except that the 55 uses a 49mm filter whereas the 35 uses a 55mm.
Can some plz tell me, what is the difference between FE 35 mm f/1.8
And
35mm F1.8 for E mount???? Thnx
FE : full frame lens
E : for APSC body or cropped (by 1.5x) if mounting on full frame body
where is the picture you took?
I bought this lens because of you and it's my favorite lens. Even though I don't know how to use it
Haha it's a really solid lens, I use it on a weekly basis!
Just got this for my A7s2
Thanks for the review Keith! Is there an aperture ring on this lens?
There is not
Great video!
Thanks!
Great video 👍👍👍
Thank you 👍
One thing that isn't mentioned a lot is that it also has a super pleasing image with some background pop that's very reminiscent of the Zeiss look. For video, this guy is actually better than the Gmaster IMO.
People are telling me the 35mm 1.4 g master is a photography lens and not for video. And all the reviews just cover photos. Is the 1.8 really that much more appropriate for video? I’m looking to make the best decision here and for longevity and quality I wanna get the g master. But I’ll get this one if I need to. As you can see, my current shots with my iPhone are very close up. So I’m a little lost with that because I noticed when I go from photo, to the video mode on my iPhone, it crops in. This kind of scares me because it makes me think that right now I’m able to get objects really close to the camera and I got spoiled. In fact, I was wanting to get things even closer but if I’m correct on my thinking, the video on iPhone is cropping in, therefore, making objects appear closer than they are. That means the minimum focus distance of this 1.8 being 8 inches, that’s gonna be lie double the 4 inches I’m used to.
Any suggestions on how to combat this or proceed? I’m new to cameras because all I have is iPhone right now but I’m looking to get an A7C. To achieve the same thing I’m getting right now, what I need to get a zoom lens and just keep it permanently zoomed in a little bit? Would that give me a better minimum focus distance since it’s zoomed in? Or does it not work that way? At that point would be an advantage to getting a ZVe10 with a crop sensor? Or am I still at the mercy of the lens? I put on the camera regardless? Or does that crop sensor help you get closer to the object.
I suppose it’s kind of all the same, therefore I could always just use this lens, 8 inches away, and then crop in with my software after the fact. If that’s all my iPhone is doing anyway just in real time. It just makes a difference though, because if I am looking at the monitor on the camera, if I’m holding the object away from the lens, I can’t tell myself what the shot will look like after editing, and I can’t see the product details to comment on in real time.
Or maybe I will find that 4 inches and 8 inches isn’t all THATTTT much different. Either way, the g master will have an even farther minimum distance so that’s holding me back from the g master sadly. Focus breathing prob isn’t much concern for me since my content is highly edited. Will be noticeable on live streams though.
That said, do you think this is a good lens for my type of videos? Most specifically, referring to 35mm? I want the field of you to be the same as what my iPhone is right now and I think it’s probably around 38 currently? 24 might be too wide and force me to redo my table and set up and I’m worried it might distort the product? But now I’m curious about 50mm but maybe that’s not modern enough.
Can someone help me plz, I started photography as a completely new, I got Sony A7iii buy now I m confused which lens I should go for,
What are you shooting, what results are you expecting and whats your budget?
Bundle of thnx for replying,, my main focus is on portrait photos and videos for instagram 🙏🙏
Will be very kind of u If u suggest me
Thnx ♥️♥️
@@ziavlogs6367 Glad to help! Whats your budget? For portraits, you'll probably want to start with primes instead of zooms. For primes on the lower end, the Sony 85mm 1.8 and Sony 35mm 1.8 are my go-tos. For the higher end, adding the 50mm 1.2 (or 50mm 1.4, haven't used it as I have the 1.2 - but have heard great things) or upgrade to the 85mm GM. The 135 GM is a fantastic portrait lens but seems like a little overkill for Instagram.
This lens isn’t best deal for photo only? I wish they made 35mm f1.8 G lens
Only downside I found for photography is the CA is terrible on this lens. I now have the GM so it's time to sell the 1.8.
Thank you. I would really appreciate it if Sony updated this lens to a G build like the FE 20/1.8 G. I have this lens and the bigger heavier GM f/1.4 and really need both. I don’t want a slower f/2.5 like the other small G. Still want an f/1.8. That’s my feedback. By the way I’m not a videographer. Take care.
This would be a FANTASTIC lens! I'm surprised they haven't done that already
There was a different one of these 4 or 5 years ago that had oss? it had tons of aberrations did they update and fix it?I watch christopher Frost review of one a few years ago and close up it had linear aberrations colors real bad. Is this the same lens from here ua-cam.com/video/SJjlT3xR6GY/v-deo.html I need a decent 35mm to get started but the one he reviewed wouldn't work if its improved that be great, The one he did had OSS
Hey there christopher, that lens in chris' video is an APSC lens, which camera will you be putting this on? I've never used that lens before but I dont have a video comparing the Sigma 35mm, Sony 1.8 and Sony 14. G Master coming out soon on my channel
1:19 what Sony lens is that ?????
Sony 90mm Macro, the sharpest lens I own - one of my favorites!
@@keith-knittel I’ll look into it
Just ordered mine today! 379€ was a steal I could not avoid :D
That’s a steal! Where from? Congrats on the new lens
Dude that is exactly what I paid yesterday for this lens brand new from a official distributor. Super stoked about the price and lens.
@@grimmwheeper awesome 😀 I can't wait to get my hands on mine, but delivery is taking around 2 weeks, they say... 😕
@@grimmwheeper update, two days ago, I finally got my lens 😂 Yes, it took way too long... It was apparently out of stock, and they had to order it directly to Sony. Anyway, it feels amazing on my hands 😍 The metal is really great, and it's almost impossible to hear the lens focusing 😳 never saw (heard?) anything like this.
@@keith-knittel I bought it online from El Corte inglès, a Spanish shopping center, also present in Portugal, where I'm from. Thanks! 😊
Great love from Pakistan 🇵🇰❤️
Sending good vibes from the US!
There are several cheaper alternatives with better rendering for photography.
Any suggestions? I'm always looking for new lenses to try out
@@keith-knittel Pretty much any of them. All the Samyang AF 35mm primes are pretty good.
@@QuietOCare these actually sharper? I like the fact that are smaller but I figured the Sony would be way better
Just brought it for 300€ new
Awesome deal!
