Sony G SEL15F14G 15mm
With its bright f/1.4 aperture and 15mm focal length on APS-C, this lens delivers sharp corner-to-corner resolution and smooth bokeh, driven by dual linear motors for fast, silent autofocus. A compact, internal-focusing design keeps the length constant during focus, and the aperture ring offers click-on/off switching for seamless still-to-video transitions, while supporting focus breathing compensation. Best for Sony APS-C and Super35 video shooters and vloggers who need a wide, low-light prime with dependable tracking and minimal handling shifts.
