Fisher tested the lens both in the field and in the lab with the Alpha 7R IV and was very impressed with the clarity of his results, even shooting wide open. “Simply put, you can use this lens at any f-stop and enjoy clear results across the plane of focus, even on Sony's highest resolution image sensor. You'll get the shots with shallow depth of field and smoothly defocused backgrounds at wider apertures, and razor sharp results at moderate settings.”

“The FE 35mm F1.4 GM stands above them all as the best choice for pros and serious hobbyists. It’s incredibly sharp, quick to focus, and delivers images with pleasingly blurred backgrounds.”
