35mm prime lenses are a staple for many photographers.The angle of view provided by this focal length is one of the most comfortable and versatile on both 35mm full frame format and APS-C format cameras, and with that, this lens can be used for anything from close-ups to landscapes. The SAL35F14G, with its superb optics and large F1.4 maximum aperture, is one of the finest fast 35mm lenses in its class. In addition to no-compromise G Lens construction and quality throughout, it features an optical design that includes an aspherical lens element that contributes to consistently superior, low-distortion image quality right up to the F1.4 maximum aperture. You can shoot wide open in low light knowing that the entire scene will

be captured with equally superb clarity and contrast.The large maximum aperture and circular aperture design are also an advantage when you want to isolate your subject from a busy background, for example, allowing you to defocus unwanted detail so your subject stands out.

If you’re serious about shooting sports, nature, or wildlife, or just about any subject that moves and needs to be shot from a distance, this is a lens that you’ll want to have in your kit. 300mm is the sweet spot for a wide range of telephoto applications, and its large F2.8 maximum aperture makes it possible to use motion-stopping shutter speeds when shooting fast action, as well as to control depth-of-field for creative defocusing. Chromatic aberration can be a problem in telephoto lenses, but the SAL300F28G uses three ED elements in a top-class optical design that reduces aberration to a minimum, ensuring high resolution, high contrast image quality at all aperture settings. A minimum focusing distance of just 2 meters is another advantage that is rare in a lens of this type, letting you take advantage of telephoto characteristics at close range.
