Sony FE 40mm f/2.5 G Lens Summary
Introducing the Sony FE 40mm f/2.5 G Lens, an exciting full frame option released as one of a trio of prime lenses designed to provide high quality results whilst remaining extremely compact and lightweight. The 40mm f/2.5 G is accompanied by the Sony FE 24mm f/2.8 G Lens and 50mm f/2.5 G Lens which all sport a similar size, weight and universal filter thread, allowing photographers and videographers to switch quickly between them.
The 40mm f/2.5 lens packs two fast linear motors which work seamlessly with advanced Sony AF systems found across their mirrorless camera range. The lens will acquire and track subjects smoothly and silently regardless of whether recording videos or images, or how quickly the subject changes direction. This focal width presents opportunities for users of all levels to capture a wide range of subjects including portraits, travel and is an excellent choice for day to day shooting.
Features at a glance
- High resolving power with high levels of sharpness visible across the frame
- Bright f/2.5 aperture with smooth bokeh from a 7-bladed round aperture
- Truly portable with a weight of only 173g. and measuring just 68 x 45mm
- Two linear motors deliver fast, precise AF with excellent tracking capabilities
- Highly refined optics with three aspherical elements provide beautiful results
- Close-focus of 25cm (manual) and 28cm in AF for dynamic compositions
- Full frame and APS-C compatible
- High quality aluminium exterior, engraved markings and a premium feel
Sony FE 40mm f/2.5 G Lens in More Detail
The optical design using three aspherical elements delivers high resolution throughout the frame whilst suppressing colour fringing. The results are accomplished showing high corner-to-corner resolution and smooth rounded bokeh.
With such a lightweight and compact design this is an excellent full frame prime for cityscapes, landscapes and videography, as well as being suitable for portraits with a slightly wider focal width.
A bright f/2.5 aperture with 7-rounded blades delivers strong low light performance together with pleasing bokeh helping to separate the subject from any background distractions when this style is desired.
Users employing Sony’s advanced AF systems gain extremely quick and quiet focus capabilities thanks to two linear focus motors. Regardless of whether shooting movies or stills AF is snappy and tracks subjects easily as they move around.
The Sony 40mm f/2.5 G lens handles very well and has a premium feel due to being made from aluminium. This sophisticated theme continues as Sony has engraved the iris ring indices, focal length markings and their logo on the hood. Add in a rubber mount ring for weather resistance and the lens feels like it can travel anywhere and look the part as much as any Sony E-mount lenses.
This 40mm is featured together with the other two new lenses in our blog post Sony Scores Hat-Trick With 3 New Lenses, well worth a look if you are considering pulling the trigger on any of these.
