Sony G Master (E Mount)
Sony's G Master (GM) series of lenses for the E-mount system is designed for professional photographers and videographers, offering exceptional optical performance, advanced features, and robust build quality. These lenses are engineered to meet the demands of high-resolution imaging, making them ideal for both still photography and video production.
Key Features:
Optical Design: The optical design of Sony G Master lenses incorporates advanced technology to achieve high resolution and minimal optical aberrations. For instance, the FE 24mm f/1.4 GM lens features two extreme aspherical (XA) elements and three extra-low dispersion (ED) elements, which work together to reduce distortion and enhance sharpness across the frame.
Aperture Range: Sony G Master lenses, such as the FE 24mm f/1.4 GM, feature wide apertures (f/1.4–f/2.8) for exceptional light-gathering and depth-of-field control. This allows photographers to shoot in various lighting conditions while achieving stunning bokeh and sharp image quality.
Focus Throw: These lenses provide precise focus throw and a smooth linear response, enabling fine manual adjustments. This is especially useful for filmmakers who need accurate focus transitions. The seamless switch between autofocus and manual focus enhances versatility in dynamic shooting environments.
Advanced Optical Design: G Master lenses feature Nano AR coating for reduced flare and enhanced contrast, while Direct Drive SSM delivers fast, quiet autofocus. These innovations ensure superior image quality, accurate colors, and smooth performance for both photo and video.
Build Quality: Sony G Master lenses are built for durability with dust and moisture resistance, ensuring reliable performance in tough conditions. Made with high-quality materials, they maintain a lightweight design. For example, the FE 24mm f/1.4 GM weighs just 15.7 oz (445 g) and offers superior optical performance, making it compact, robust, and ideal for both stills and video.
Image Quality:
The G Master series is known for delivering sharp resolution and smooth, natural bokeh, even at wide apertures. With advanced optical elements and coatings, these lenses minimize distortion and offer excellent contrast across different lighting conditions.
Physical Characteristics:
The G Master lenses are designed for portability, with compact dimensions like the FE 24mm f/1.4 GM, which measures 3" x 3.75" (75.4 x 92.4 mm). They feature an ergonomic design with user-friendly elements, such as customizable buttons and a physical aperture ring, offering intuitive control while shooting.
