With an f\/1.8 aperture and advanced optics, including two AA elements, one Super ED, and three ED elements, it delivers exceptional sharpness while minimising aberrations, flare, and ghosting. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for landscapes, architecture, and astrophotography, it offers outstanding close-up performance with a 0.15m AF and 0.13m MF minimum focus distance. Dual XD linear motors provide fast, precise, and quiet autofocus, making it excellent for both photography and video. Designed for reliability, it features a physical aperture ring, focus hold button, AF\/MF switch, and a dust and moisture-resistant build with a fluorine-coated front element.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eFull frame | f\/1.8 Maximum Aperture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eUltra-Wide Prime Lens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eDual XD Linear AF Motors, Internal focus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003eFocus Hold Button, AF\/MF Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003ePhysical Aperture Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWeighing just 304g, it is lightweight and well-balanced, even on a gimbal, making it a versatile tool for both stills and video content creators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDynamic perspectives and smooth bokeh at 16mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith a 16 mm angle of view and an f\/1.8 aperture, the FE 16mm f\/1.8 G can capture wide-angle imagery with gorgeous background bokeh. This expressive prime G Lens™ is great for scenery, architecture, starry skies, and more. It also offers outstanding close-up capability and precise, quiet AF. The FE 16mm f\/1.8 G accepts standard 67mm filters, is compact and lightweight, and is easy to balance on a gimbal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutstanding resolution at ultra-wide 16mm angle of view\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo AA (Advanced Aspherical) lenses minimise field curvature and astigmatism for stunning image-wide resolution at all apertures. One Super ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass element and three ED elements suppress chromatic aberration right out to the image periphery, while an optimised coating minimises flare and ghosting. This is an ideal lens for creating dynamic, spectacularly resolved wide-angle perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGorgeous G Lens bokeh and outstanding close-up performance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis G Lens delivers stunning bokeh with its large f\/1.8 maximum aperture, 11-blade circular iris, and carefully controlled spherical aberration. Close-up performance is excellent with a minimum focus distance of 0.15m and maximum magnification of 0.25x when using AF (0.13 m, 0.30x for MF). All of this makes it possible to capture unique wide-angle perspectives with deep, exquisite bokeh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLarge-aperture ultra-wide performance in a compact lens\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe use of aspherical lens elements, including Sony’s high-precision AA (Advanced Aspherical) lens, has made it possible to create a full-frame ultra-wide lens that is a compact 73.8 x 75 mm and weighs just 304 g. It is small, lightweight, and mobile while delivering spectacular imaging performance for a wide range of subjects including landscapes, architecture, night scenes, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFast, precise autofocus supports high-level imaging\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo XD (extreme dynamic) linear motors ensure fast, precise AF and tracking. A control algorithm developed specifically for the XD linear motors achieves enhanced response that largely negates delay and vibration that can occur when driving a large focus group, for exceptionally quiet, low-vibration operation. All of this makes it possible to capture important moments when shooting active, fast-moving subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRefined, stable performance for movies\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAdvanced lens technology reduces focus breathing so that changes in angle of view are minimised for smooth movie footage. The breathing compensation function provided in compatible α bodies is also supported, and in-body Active Mode image stabilisation can make it easy to capture stable wide-angle movie imagery while walking. The lens accepts standard 67mm filters, and is easy to balance on a gimbal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComprehensive control and solid reliability\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA focus ring, focus hold button, focus mode switch, aperture ring, and iris lock switch are provided. Alternative functions can be assigned to the focus hold button. The aperture ring provides hands-on control, while a click ON\/OFF switch adds versatility. A focus mode switch allows instant autofocus\/manual switching.
