## Overview

The Sony 35mm F2.8 Sonnar T FE ZA is a premium full-frame prime lens featuring a bright F2.8 aperture, Carl Zeiss T* multi-coating for exceptional color fidelity, and advanced aspherical elements for edge-to-edge sharpness. Weighing just 120 grams, it offers a compact, weather-resistant design with fast, quiet autofocus, making it perfect for professional-grade street, travel, and everyday photography on Sony E-mount full-frame cameras.

## Description

Sony Camera Lenses SEL35F28Z The small size, versatile 35mm focal length, and outstanding overall performance of this Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* lens make it an ideal match for compact 35mm full frame format E-mount bodies. Although the optical design is state-of-the-art, this superb wide angle lens remains true to the original Sonnar concept with a bright F2.8 maximum aperture (“Sonne” means “sun” in German). Three double-sided aspherical elements minimize aberration so that stunning contrast and resolution are maintained right out to the image edges at all apertures. The renowned T* lens coating contributes to natural color reproduction as well. When changing your aperture to defocus the background, the light sources appear blurred. This ‘bokeh’ effect of the blurred background can be enhanced with circular aperture blades used in this lens. Conventional aperture blades have flat sides creating unappealing polygonal shaped defocussed points of light. α lenses overcome this problem through a unique design that keeps the aperture almost perfectly circular from its wide-open setting to when it is closed by 2 stops. Smoother, more natural defocusing can be obtained as a result. Aspherical lens design dramatically reduces spherical aberration while also reducing lens size and weight. Spherical aberration is a slight misalignment of the light rays projected on the image plane. This is caused by differences in refraction at different points on conventional spherical lenses which degrade image quality in large-aperture lenses. Specially shaped “aspherical” elements near the diaphragm restore alignment of light rays at the image plane, maintaining high sharpness and contrast even at maximum aperture and can also be used at other points in the optical path to reduce distortion. Well-designed aspherical elements can reduce the total number of elements required in the lens, thus reducing overall size and weight. Advanced Aspherical (AA) elements are an evolved variant, featuring an extremely high thickness ratio between the center and periphery. AA elements are exceedingly difficult to produce, relying on the most advanced molding technology to consistently and precisely achieve the required shape and surface accuracy, resulting in significantly improved image accuracy and quality. Coated optics were pioneered by Carl Zeiss - and this superb lens features the Carl Zeiss T* (T-Star) coating that virtually eliminates lens flare, internal reflection and light scattering that can otherwise occur at glass-to-air surfaces. The T* coating contributes to outstanding image quality, with high contrast and uniformly excellent resolution right out to the image edges. Not simply applied to any lens - the T* symbol only appears on multi-element lenses in which the required performance has been achieved throughout the entire optical path, therefore guaranteeing the highest quality. Only the middle groups of the optical system move to achieve focus, so the overall length of the lens does not change. Other important benefits include fast autofocusing and a short minimum focusing distance. Also, the filter thread at the front of the lens does not rotate, which is convenient if you’re using a polarizing filter. The dust and moisture resistance design makes this lens appropriate for heavy-duty outdoor use, especially when combined with a camera that employs weather resistant measures. 2014 Sony Electronics All rights reserved.

Review: Quck review for a great lens - I'll keep this one short and sweet: Great lens, worth every penny, I recommend it and consider it a MUST if you own the a7/r. Why? +Great build quality, weather sealed, durable, I like the lens hood/cap and it has a great look and feel. A pleasure to use. +Smooth focus ring, just the exact amount of resistance +Very portable, matches perfectly with the a7/r +Fast focus +Great for all around photography, street photography, hanging out, etc. Very versatile +Sharp throughout most of the frame +It's not a 1.8F (I wish), but because you are shooting with the a7, the full-frame allows you to get some nice bokeh if you isolate your subject with a distant background. Last but not least: It is a Zeiss! the elegant colors it produces can not be matched (in my opinion) by other lenses. I have gotten some really unique images with this lens. The way a lens "feels" is a very important characteristic for me, this lens feels spectacular and it has just the right size and weight to match the a7, this makes me want to grab the camera and frame something in an artistic way, the results have been awesome! I highly recommend it!
Review: Solid performer as a walk-around lens - I bought a used copy of this lens from KEH here on desertcart and have been very happy with it. When mounted on my Sony a7R II , it's a discreet camera+lens combo that's small and easy to carry and use for street photography and more. I used this lens on the A7RM2 almost exclusively on a recent trip; I also took a 24-70mm lens but rarely bothered to use it. I really like this focal length, and had no focusing issues with this lens. It focused quickly, and my photos were sharp. I'm uploading a few shots taken with this lens on the A7RM2, not as great art but to show the versatility of this lens and the good results it gives me. Obviously, the camera is always part of the equation - and the A7RM2 is a really good camera. But I'm sure that I could mount this lens on my Sony a6000 and within the limits of that camera's abilities, get equally good performance. I'm using it with the lens hood in place, which I'm OK with. It protects the lens. However, I'm finding the lens cap to be a little touchy, sometimes hard to get solidly in place. Also, because it's so small I kept misplacing it. I intend to buy a pack of off-brand 40.5 mm lens caps and carry a spare cap.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love the lens….
*by D***Y on December 20, 2013*

This is a wonderful sharp lens and a good start to the E-mount lenses that Sony is making for full frame cameras. It has an odd hood on it and I observed vignetting with it when the hood is on but no vignetting was noted with the hood off. The hood protects the lens quite nicely but it is inverted inward. The lens is made of a high quality plastic. I am a Canon user and at first the plastic was hard to get used to but it is very light weight (which I love) and the lens is smooth to use. The lens hood has a perfect fit and is locked on solidly when it is put on. With this lens on, my camera fits neatly into my purse and makes the Sony A7R easy to carry as a pocket camera. I am not seeing any chromatic aberrations but am still in the process of testing the lens. I have the Sony RX1 and feel that this lens is comparable to the lens on the RX1. I am hoping that Sony comes out with an ultra wide angle lens soon…..but for now, this is a good start……..
