ROKINON'S AF 35mm F1.8 Full Frame Compact Wide Angle Lens for Sony E mount, is the tenth auto focus lens specifically engineered for Sony mirrorless cameras. Weighing only 7.4 ounces and measuring just 2.5 inches in length, this new 35mm strikes the perfect balance of speed and portability, and is the lightest and smallest AF full frame 35mm F1.8 Sony E mount lens currently in the market.

Rokinon’s AF 35mm F1.8 compact and rugged build quality is paired with a sophisticated optical design to provide superb performance and versatility. Incorporating 4 special elements (2 Aspherical and 2 High Refractive Index) plus Ultra Multi-Coating, it achieves rich, high resolution image quality from the center to the edges of the frame, even at F/1.8 full aperture. It’s also a capable, high precision performer as a “standard / normal” focal length equivalent to 52.5mm with Sony E mount APS-C sensor models.

Designed for exceptional sharpness at maximum F1.8 aperture, this lens excels at available light photography and at creating content with a shallow depth of field. Thanks to its 9-blade circular aperture, pleasing bokeh effects that exhibit natural, circular, out-of-focus highlights are achieved at a level that will satisfy both professional and amateur photographers. The AF motor system employs a Stepping Motor (STM) that is optimized for both phase detection AF and contrast AF. It provides a smooth and almost effortless shooting experience, and the Internal Focus (IF) design allows for quick and precise autofocus performance with silent focusing while recording video.

Notable features include weather sealing that helps protect against dust and moisture, and a Custom Switch that enables the focusing ring to function either as a manual focus control (Mode 1) or as an aperture control (Mode 2). Additional Custom Switch functions are being developed and made available via firmware updates. Fine tuning focusing parameters and other updates for the AF 35mm F1.8 and other AF ROKINON Sony E mount lenses are obtained by using a ROKINON Lens Station.

Large F1.8 Aperture for the Most Loved 35mm Focal Length

35mm is one of the most loved focal lengths of all time for its versatility from indoors to landscapes and even portraits. It frames the background and subject perfectly with a wide enough angle of view. Also, a large F1.8 finds a perfect balance between portability and image quality. The wide aperture lets in more lights, creating a sharp and high-resolution image with fast shutter speed to capture every moment.

Full-frame Performance in Ultra-Compact Size & Lightweight

Weighing in at just 210g/7.4oz and measuring 65mm/2.55in in diameter by 63.5mm/2.5in in length; this new lens sets a new standard for portability as a Rokinon Tiny Series lens. It supports full-frame mirrorless cameras in Sony E mount with outstanding image quality throughout the corner to corner of the image. It makes an ideal lens for street photographers, vloggers, and Instagrammers who expect a high-resolution image from a portable lens. Its optical construction including an aspherical element to suppress aberration and deliver high resolution throughout the entire image frame.

Weather Sealing for protection from external influences

This new Tiny Series lens, the AF 35mm F1.8 E, features weather sealing for 4 spots to protect from light dust, rain and snow and provide the ability to capture stunning images in less than perfect conditions.

Versatile control and handling for a wide range of imaging with the Custom Switch

Equipped with the Custom Switch, shooting and operation are more intuitive and simple. You can easily select various functions such as Aperture Control Mode or MF Mode from the Switch, and enjoy the shooting mode that suits your personal preference. More functions will be added through firmware updates in the future.

Fast, quiet and accurate Auto Focus with excellent tracking for videos as well as stills

Now Autofocus needs to consider not only how more accurately and quickly it captures images, but also how quiet and smooth it is. Thanks to the newly researched and developed Linear STM (Stepping Motor), a larger and heavier focus lens group can be controlled more quietly and precisely, providing excellent image quality in photos and videos.

Enables beautiful bokeh with 9-circular blades

9-blade circular aperture delivers amazingly beautiful and soft bokeh.
