  • Our take on the Sony FE 50mm F1.4 GM

    The Sony FE 50mm F1.4 GM is a premium full-frame prime for Sony E-mount cameras, built for the G Master line with two XA elements and one ED element to keep the wide-open image sharp and clean. At f/1.4 it gathers plenty of light and gives shallow depth of field, while an 11-blade aperture keeps out-of-focus highlights round. It is heavier and larger than the compact 50mm F2.5 G but lighter than the older Planar T* 50mm F1.4 ZA, and it focuses faster and quieter than that lens. It suits portrait, wedding and low-light shooters who want a fast autofocus 50mm and accept the size and price of a pro-grade prime.

    Best forPortrait and wedding photographersLow-light and event shootersFull-frame Sony users wanting a fast standard primeVideo shooters who need quiet, linear autofocus
    Pros
    • Sharp wide open at f/1.4, with strong corner performance stopped down
    • Fast, quiet linear motors with good eye-AF tracking
    • Aperture ring with a click/de-click switch for video
    • Weather-sealed, dust- and moisture-resistant build
    • 11-blade aperture gives round bokeh highlights
    • Lighter than the Planar T* 50mm F1.4 ZA it replaces in many kits
    Cons
    • Large and heavy for a 50mm prime
    • Noticeable focus breathing, which matters for video
    • Noticeable vignetting and some distortion before correction
    • Costs far more than the 50mm F1.8 and F2.5 G options
    • No optical stabilization, relying on in-body stabilization

    Questions and answers

    Is the Sony FE 50mm F1.4 GM worth it over the 50mm F1.8?
    Yes if you shoot wide open often and need fast, quiet autofocus and a weather-sealed build. The F1.8 is much smaller and lighter but softer wide open and slower to focus.
    How does it compare with the Sony Planar T* 50mm F1.4 ZA?
    The GM is sharper wide open, focuses faster and quieter, and is lighter than the ZA. The ZA has a distinct rendering some prefer, but the GM is the stronger all-round lens.
    Is it good for video?
    Yes for autofocus and the de-clickable aperture ring, but it shows noticeable focus breathing. If breathing matters, consider the 50mm F2.5 G or plan around it.
    Does it work on APS-C Sony bodies?
    Yes, it mounts on E-mount APS-C cameras and gives a 75mm equivalent field of view. It is large on those bodies, so the balance favors full-frame cameras.
    Is it weather-sealed?
    Yes, it has dust- and moisture-resistant sealing, though it is not waterproof. Pair it with a sealed body for wet conditions.
    What is in the box?
    The lens, front and rear caps, a lens hood and a soft case. It takes 67mm filters.
    Where is the Sony FE 50mm F1.4 GM cheapest?
    At Abt Electronics & Appliances, for $1,248.00, as of our latest check.
    Where can I buy the Sony FE 50mm F1.4 GM?
