Sony 8-14mm f/3.5 Fisheye G Lens

The Sony 8-14mm f/3.5 Fisheye G Lens is the first E-Mount fisheye zoom lens that offers new ways to see the world, capturing entire spaces and using distortion as an expressive tool. It covers everything from full-frame circular to diagonal fisheye in one lens, providing comprehensive support for stills, movies and VR imaging. It is also compact and lightweight enough for everyday shooting as well as professional use.

Versatile Fisheye Expression

An ultra-wide 180° angle of view captures dynamic spaces, and an 8-14mm zoom range goes from full-frame circular fisheye at 8mm to frame-filling diagonal fisheye at 14mm. The ability to choose the ideal fisheye angle of view for individual environments and creative needs opens up an extraordinary range of expressive possibilities.

Clear and Sharp with Minimal Chromatic Aberration

ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass and aspherical elements in a new optical design result in a compact, lightweight lens that delivers performance worthy of the G Lens brand. High resolution and minimal chromatic aberration are achieved throughout the image area. A 0.15m minimum focus distance with 0.22x maximum magnification enables truly dynamic close-up perspectives with smooth background bokeh for stills or movies.

Fast, Accurate AF and Intuitive MF

Innovative lens technology ensures that focus breathing is effectively suppressed for smooth, professional-looking movies. The linear motor focus drive system and circular aperture unit are quiet too, so movie audio will not be spoiled by lens noise or vibration. Linear Response MF supports direct, intuitive manual focus control when needed.

Outstanding Mobility, Operability and Reliability

The compact, lightweight design makes this unique lens a great match for compact bodies, providing ideal balance and handling. Effortlessly shoot one-handed or mount it on a gimbal or rig. Focus, zoom and aperture rings allow intuitive control, while the zoom lock and focus mode switches ensure consistent operation. A dust and moisture resistant design and a fluorine-coated front element maximise reliability in harsh conditions.

Natural Spatial Rendering for 3D VR Content Production

The 63.1mm diameter of this compact lens makes it an ideal choice for shooting natural-looking 3D and VR content using a dual-camera set-up. The left and right lenses can be positioned at a distance of about 64mm, matching the normal human interpupillary distance for natural spatial reproduction and impressive depth. The fisheye width enhances the immersive effect.

What changed beyond the footnotes and headings

The imperial conversions in brackets are gone so it reads metric only, the trademark mark after G Lens is dropped, "professional looking" is hyphenated, and the serial commas are removed to match UK style. This version is saved under the flash description in the Embargo Products file, so both options are together for tomorrow.
