The Sony 50mm f/1.4 is currently the only standard lens available in Sony Alpha mount. Most likely it is not a new lens but simply the relabeled variant of the old Minolta AF 50mm f/1.4 RS plus ADI encoding.

Slightly better cameras but otherwise, not much of an update - buy the iPhone 14 Pro or switch to Android instead

Better low-light photography, Slightly longer battery life, Action mode gives super stabilised video

The same performance as the iPhone 13, No Dynamic Island or Always-On display, 60Hz screen

The Sony Carl Zeiss Planar T* 50mm f/1.4 ($1,499.99 direct) is the top-end standard-angle prime lens for Sony D-SLR cameras . It's a more expensive version of the older Sony 50mm f/1.4 , but it's one that's been designed with very little compromise in terms of optical qualities.

Impressively sharp; Excellent depth of field control; Captures a ton of light; Great build quality

Some barrel distortion; Big; Expensive

The Sony 50mm f/1.4 is the smallest and lightest of the 50mm lenses on test, and it has a very neat, uncluttered design. It's also got the best set of depth of field markers, covering f/4, f/8, f/16 and f/22. It's much less sophisticated to use, though.

The iPhone 14 comes to market with the same launch price as the previous generation. At the same time, iPhone connoisseurs were more than disillusioned after the presentation of the new smartphone. Apple leaves large parts of the hardware unchanged and does not dare to change the design.

Top performance level despite last year's chip, Very high quality workmanship, Improved image and video quality, Excellent battery life

Hardly any innovations, Charging takes too long for 2022

A slight camera upgrade, new emergency features, and... not a whole lot else

Better selfie camera, Good battery life, Crash detection and satellite SOS are neat

It’s more like an iPhone 13S, Display is still 60Hz, eSIM transition will be easy for most but painful for some

It’s a great handset, but the improvements are so iterative that most of you will hardly notice what’s new.

Action mode offers truly superb video stabilization. eSIM makes it easy to switch phones (with other iPhones). Satellite SOS and Crash Detection add peace of mind.

Many of the specs remain the same as on the iPhone 13. Small battery gains. Photonic Engine isn’t as revolutionary as suggested.

The Sony 50mm f1.4 is a great lens for portrait on crop censor i use it with my Sony A700 for portraiture, center and border sharpness is excellent at aperture 2.0 and up it produces consistently sharp photos i am very happy with it the only negative is noise focusing mechanism.

Consistent Output; Easily Interchangeable; Easy To Clean; Lightweight; Sharp Focus

Noisy focuse

Works as expected. A good lense.

Gary Wolstenholme reviews the Carl Zeiss Planar T* 50mm f/1.4 ZA SSM lens, a standard prime lens for use with Sony A-mount cameras which sports a fast f/1.4 maximum aperture and silent focusing.

Superb build; Fantastically sharp when stopped down; Quick to focus; Reasonably lightweight ofr its size and build

High CA at fast apertures; Fairly poor sharpness towards the edges of the frame at f1.4
