Apple has given select media outlets and YouTubers access to the new iPhone 14 ahead of when it begins arriving in customers' hands on Friday, September 16. There are two models of the ‌iPhone‌ 14, the standard 6.1-inch ‌iPhone‌ 14 and the larger 6.7-inch ‌iPhone‌ 14 Plus.

It's easy to get carried away and lose sight of just how far we've come in the smartphone world. Apple's iPhone 14 is 7.8 millimeters thick but can communicate directly with satellites, boasts photographic talents that eclipse dedicated cameras and action cams, and does so starting at just $799.

Improved low-light camera performance, Clever safety features (you hope you won't need)

Improvements feel evolutionary, eSIM may prove a headache, iPhone 13 offers much the same for $100 less

The iPhone 14 is better than its predecessor, but it's also more expensive and doesn't have many significant upgrades.

Even faster, with a better camera and more features.

Charger is optional. Lacks telephoto lens. Price has been increased.

More like an iPhone 13S. The generational upgrades for the iPhone 14 are limited to a few subtle changes. At the same time, however, the base price climbs to 800 USD, while the only true innovation happens inside the iPhone 14 Pro series.

excellent OLED display, dust- and waterproof, fast Wi-Fi, wide range of supported frequencies, great camera, very fast performance, good battery life

display limited to 60 Hz, charging rate limited to 20 watts, no macro lens, wide notch

The Distagon T* FE 35mm f/1.4 is a strong performer and well worth considering by owners of Sony's FE mount cameras who want a fast prime lens with a moderately wide angle of view. This lens is able to capitalise on the superior high ISO performance of Sony's recent ‘full frame' cameras, making it a...

The Sony Zeiss Distagon T* FE 35mm F1.4 ZA is another excellent 35mm prime lens for Sony mirrorless cameras. It's a focal length at which you have two other choices, but each is unique and fills its own niche.

Sharp even at f/1.4 No distortion; Physical aperture ring; Weather and dust-resistant design

Big; Expensive; Lacks image stabilization

The Sony Zeiss Distagon T* FE 35mm F1.4 ZA is a new professional-grade prime lens for Sony Alpha 35mm full-frame and APS-C E-mount mirrorless cameras. It features an aperture range of f/1.4-f/16 and a nine-bladed circular diaphragm for smoother bokeh blur in out of focus areas.

Photographers who use Sony's full-frame mirrorless camera system are blessed with a strong selection of 35mm prime lenses, each fulfilling a specific purpose. The Zeiss Loxia 2/35 ($695.49 at Amazon) offers a pure mechanical manual focus feel and is quite compact, while the Zeiss Sonnar T* FE 35mm F2.8 ($798.00 at Amazon) supports autofocus and is just as small. The newest 35mm prime from Sony, the Zeiss Distagon T* FE 35mm F1.4 ZA ($1,599.99), is another optical gem, though it's huge when compared with the other two 35mm lenses available for the system. The Distagon captures four times the light at its maximum aperture as the Sonnar T*, which accounts for its cost and size. And, like the svelte Sonnar T*, it's worthy of Editors' Choice honors. The Distagon ($998.00 at Amazon) measures 4.4 by 3.1 inches, weighs a hefty 1.4 pounds, and supports 72mm front filters. A reversible lens hood is included. It's a big lens, especially if you pair it with a camera with a shallow grip like...

The Sony Zeiss Distagon T* FE 35mm F1.4 ZA is a sharp, no-compromise lens, but you'll pay for its quality.

Big; Expensive; Lacks image stabilization

If you only need one lens, want one lens, feel all magnum inspired, buy one. It's fabulous. Sharp (who cares, most lenses are sharp at this sort of money, if not then why would you be looking) fast ( like an oiled 80's temptress in a leotard) Heavy

PROS 1- outstanding sharpness ! even at extreme - AND when I say extreme I mean egregious corners Sharp enough to 500% read small text black on white ) and the middle portion of frame THE SHARPNESS IS 95% of OTUS - and I must say its unachievable result for 99% of lens market.
