Michael's Sony FE Lens List

Im often asked about lenses for Sony Cameras. In the beginning, it was simple because there were so few. Not the case now. Here is a long list of available FE (Full Frame E Mount) lenses, with comments next to the ones I have owned or used.



G-Master These are generally regarded as the best in the class of FE lenses, that said, others offer tremendous value.



Sony FE 24-70mm f/2.8 GM = $2,198 - This is my bread and butter lens and lives on my Sony A7IV. I use it 80% of the time for all video shooting & landscapes and has become my walk around lens as well.



Sony FE 35mm f/1.4 GM Lens = $1,398



Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS Lens = $2,298 Perfect for weddings, short distance sports, and portraits.



Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II Lens = $2,798 - This is the updated version of the above. While I have not used it, the reviews and sample images say this is a home run lens.



Sony FE 50mm f/1.2 GM Lens = $1,998



Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM = $1,798



Sony FE 24mm f/1.4 GM = $1,398



Sony FE 16-35mm f/2.8 GM = $2,198 - An absolutely incredible wide angle zoom. One of the best I have ever tested. Amazing for landscapes and wide angle video.



Sony FE 14mm f/1.8 GM = $1,598



Sony FE 100mm f/2.8 STF GM OSS = $1,498



Sony FE 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 GM OSS = $2,498 Probably a better tele-zoom than the G series 200-600 for general sports shooting. The 200-600 is significantly larger, heavier, but less expensive and is more suited to wildlife and bird shooting.



Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM = $2,998



Sony FE 135mm f/1.8 GM = $2,098



Sony FE 600mm f/4 GM = $12,998



Sony FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS = $11,998





G Series



Sony FE 20mm f/1.8 G = $898



Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 = $248 This is probably a must have for all FE shooters on a budget. Very light, affordable, decent results.



Sony FE 24-105mm f/4 G OSS = $1,398



Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 = $598 Another a must have for all FE shooters on a budget. A better portrait lens than the 50 1.8.



Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS = $1,998 Large and heavy, but an outstanding sports and wildlife lens!



Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 Macro G OSS = $1,098 One of the sharpest lenses known to mankind. Incredible for Macro use.



Sony FE 24-105mm f/4 = $1,398



Sony FE 35mm f/1.8 = $748



Sony FE 50mm f/2.5 G = $598





Sony FE 40mm f/2.5 G = $598



Sony FE 20mm f/1.8 G = $907





Sony Zeiss



Sony Sonnar T* FE 35mm f/2.8 ZA = $598



Sony Sonnar T* FE 55mm f/1.8 ZA = $998



Sony Vario-Tessar T* FE 24-70mm f/4 ZA OSS = $898



Sony Vario-Tessar T* FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS = $1,348



Sony Sonnar T* FE 55mm f/1.8 ZA = $1,010.48



Sony Planar T* FE 50mm f/1.4 ZA = $1,498



Sony Sonnar T* FE 35mm f/2.8 ZA = $610.72



Sony Distagon T* FE 35mm f/1.4 ZA = $998





Tamron Lenses



Tamron 17-28mm f/2.8 Di III RXD Lens = $899 An incredible alternative to the 24-70 2.8 G master.



Tamron 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III VXD Lens = $1,199 An incredible alternative to the 70-200 2.8 G master.



Tamron 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3 Di III RXD = $549.00





Sigma Lenses



Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 DG DN Art Lens = $1,299 This is a very heavy, well built wide angle lens- has some of the best optics of any wide angle zoom on the planet. Better for interior shooting than landscapes, as it has a fixed petal hood that is not friendly to filter accessories.



Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Art Lens = $1,099



Sigma 105mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens = $1,599
