The bokeh and defocus is amazing. Each portrait I take is simply amazing. It also handles very well dark areas.

Amazing 35mm but a bit expensive
SEL35F18F 15 January 2023 by Phil Clay (United Kingdom)
I use this with my Tamron 24mm for family and street photography. Great lens with clear and bright images. The only criticism I have is the minimum distance which makes it limited up close. Defiantly a great prime lens

It's a good 35mm lens
SEL35F18F 26 April 2022 by SR82 (United Kingdom)
This is a standard 35mm lens work well on A7III. My copy has good sharpness. Clarity is pretty good but I wish Sony made a G version. Lens also works quite well with video and continuous focus.

After damaging my 18-55 kit lens, I researched for a long time before deciding to buy this Prime lens. Its realyl fast, silent, small and produces some wonderful images with great Bokeh. I just need to improve my photography skills now to get the best out of it!

SEL35F18F 21 August 2021 by Bazileous (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
Waited a while for a lens to make me smile, cheap at the price and the results were more than nice. Shoots the best RAW files partnered with the ACR profiles.

Great lens with a dreamy feel. What a value!
SEL35F18F 22 January 2021 by Beavermoon (USA)
Looking to fill the 35mm gap in my prime lineup, I contemplated the 35mm 1.4 GM at twice the price but figured at half the price I could test the 1.8 out to see if I liked the size before shelling out so much dough. After a few hundred landscape and portrait shots with this lens, I can't find any reason to upgrade. I love this lens, especially shooting in low light situations.

I bought this lens in December and have been blown away by it since! It’s super sharp and fantastic for film! Due to lockdown restrictions I haven’t been able to film as much as I would like, but looking forward to getting out later in the year and trying it!

Best value for money Sony 35mm - Easy
SEL35F18F 18 January 2021 (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
This lens is absolutely fantastic. The colours, contrast, and overall image quality is absolutely superb, even whilst at f1.8. I originally sold this lens to get a 35mm compact camera, and almost immediately regretted it. I bought this lens again, and have loved it ever since. Clients love the images it produces, I love the size and functionality of the lens, and what's best? It's a fraction of the price of the 35mm g-master. If you are umming and arring over which one to get, definitely choose this one.

Amazing lightweight lens
SEL35F18F 09 December 2020 by Aaron Russell Photography (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
I absolutely love this lens. Super lightweight, compact and a joy to use. The sharpness is excellent edge to edge and focusing silent. I shoot weddings, and was missing this focal length as I have the 24mm 1.4 GM and 55mm 1.8 in this focal length area. I found the 24mm a little wide for family formals and the 55mm too to tight. This lens is perfect for the job and many other types of subjects. I’m also getting into video and having done a few test shoots it’s fast becoming the lens I’ll keep on my A7R4 for the job. Fast AF, silent and so lightweight. Love it!

SEL35F18F 15 September 2020 by Yudi_g (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
I am so glad I brought this lens. It is well built and the image quality is amazing as expected from a Sony Lens. I had a third party 35mm which I was not happy with so I bought this and the difference is like night and day. I mainly use it for video work. Used it for some youtube work and my wife's cooking channel and she is also happy with the quality this lens has brought. The focus hold button and auto to manual switch are some nice features. Photography has been excellent as well with the images being sharp. Bokeh is vry nice as well.

GREAT SMALL LENS
SEL35F18F 22 June 2020 by Herod (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
Great for scenery, sharp, light, fast. Portraits also good but have to get too close for good bokeh. This is a good lens for taking group photos rather than a 55mm lens. Video bokeh not as good as too wide. Need to get really close up on subject. Is sharp however.

Super sharp and very light!
SEL35F18F 27 May 2020 by Cjbradbury (United Kingdom) Verified Purchaser Verified
I bought this lens about a months ago to pair with my a6400 to use for portraits, as the FOV is roughly the same as 50mm full frame. It is the best purchase of a prime I could have made. The lens is so small and light, it makes the setup so easy to carry and very discreet for shooting with. The images are pin sharp and the focus is rapid. It has reasonable levels of weather sealing and the focus button on the side adds extra control options in to the mix. I would highly recommend this lens!

Good but...
SEL35F18F 21 November 2019 by RTPhotography (USA) Verified Purchaser Verified
There is no perfect lens. If you want good and small this is your lens. But if you want great and character I prefer the sigma 35 1.4 art (rented recently). Of course the sigma has the heft. But it’s also more than $100 less than the Sony.

Very sharp. Fast focusing. Light weight.
SEL35F18F 24 September 2019 by Hafeez (USA)
I use the prime lens on my A7Riii. It is fast, light and it is just what I was hoping it to be. I was suprised at how sharp it is. It’s sharper then 55mm F/1.8 Ziess. Great ultra fast and quiet lens offered by Sony. F/1.8 works extremely great in low light condition. Lightweight and well balanced on my A7Riii.
