Fast F1.8 for broad creative control

Renowned ZEISS contrast and resolution bring out the best in full frame image sensors such as those in the Sony 7 series, and a large F1.8 maximum aperture can produce beautiful full-frame background bokeh. You can also stop down for extended depth-of-field. A bright lens like this is also an advantage when shooting in low light.

Smooth bokeh enhances depth and dimension

A 9-blade circular aperture works with this Sony Sonnar T FE 55mm f/1.8 ZA lenss state-of-the-art optics to create beautifully smooth bokeh in out-of-focus background areas when desired, with natural-looking highlights that wont distract from the important foreground subject and details.

Sony and ZEISS team up for better images

The advanced technology from ZEISS and Sony combines in a precision optical design with three aspherical elements, two double-sided, that effectively reduces all forms of aberration while achieving outstanding images with amazing sharpness and contrast. The ZEISS T* coating suppresses internal reflections, for sublime contrast from highlights to deep blacks.

Shoot with confidence anywhere

Shoot with confidence as the lens is dust and moisture resistant meaning that the lens continues to perform exceptionally well in moderately wet or dusty conditions.

Outstanding colour and contrast

The ZEISS T* coating is an important contributing factor, effectively suppressing spurious reflections that can degrade overall image quality. Flare and ghosting are effectively reduced for enhanced colour and contrast that give images a deep, three-dimensional feel.
