The Sony FE 24mm F/1.4 GM isn't what we'd call the perfect glass. We had to fix some issues of purple fringing and vignetting in post. Granted, they were very minimal and practically invisible to the untrained eye.

You'll need some deep pockets, but if you've been holding out for Sony to launch a high-quality wide-angle prime, you won't be disappointed with the FE 24mm f/1.4 GM.

Excellent image quality, Beautiful bokeh, Lightweight design, Fast AF

Pricey

The Sony FE 24mm f/1.4 GM is an outstanding wide-angle prime lens with a very fast maximum aperture, although the high asking price is certainly reflective of the performance and image quality on offer.

The Sony MILC (Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Camera) lens lineup would not be complete without a high quality, wide-aperture 85mm prime lens to satisfy the discerning needs of bokeh-loving portrait photographers everywhere.

EXCELLENT lense. Awesome bokeh, accurate focus, magnificent color rendering, Very sharp... it's a lense every portrait photographer dream and wish for. Well constructed product.

Extremely sharp; fantastic bokeh; magnificent color rendering

Very well constructed; But, plastic; It's price is high; And, Regards it's weight, it's a kind of heavy; Other wise, IT'S AMASING !!!

I have the Sony 85 f/1.8 and also the Canon 85 f/1.2L lens. I am not going to write an extensive review here, i see that most have already been said. However, i did an extensive side by side with the Sony 85 f/1.8 and f/1.4 and the GM lens definitely have better image quality and shows significantly...

Produces a very beautiful image, much like the Canon 85 L-- though perhaps not quite as etherial. It is a little more consistently 'real' from that perspective. The downside is it's more suited for studio because the auto focus can be a little slow.

If you want the best quality portrait lens for full frame Sony cameras, and price and size is not an issue, then this is the lens. Sony FE 85mm f1.4 G Master is uncompromisingly superb.

Ultimate lens

I had really high hopes for this, since Sony marketing claimed this was probably one of the best lenses ever made. Thing is: it isn't. Sharpness is good in the center, but wide open it just lacks the last bit of sharpness one would expect. Same goes for Bokeh. It's nice. Really nice to be honest.

good sharpness; nice bokeh

big; expansive; slow focus; unusable in video; marketing
