Prime 55mm for Sony E-mount

The Sony Sonnar T* FE 55mm f/1.8 ZA is a fixed-length prime lens built for full-frame E-mount cameras. Its bright f/1.8 maximum aperture suits low-light shooting and shallow depth-of-field control. The Carl Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating reduces flare and ghosting for improved contrast. Dust- and moisture-resistant construction supports use in challenging environments.

Integrates with E-mount bodies

The lens mounts directly on Sony E-mount full-frame and APS-C bodies without adapters. The nine-blade circular diaphragm produces smooth background rendition at wider apertures. A 49mm filter thread accepts the included UV filter for front-element protection. The bundled tulip hood attaches to the same thread to block stray light and shield the glass.

Cleaning kit and protection included

The bundle adds an Ultimaxx UV filter, a matching tulip hood, a blower, a cleaning pen, a microfiber cloth and a starter cleaning kit. The filter stays on the lens to guard against dust, moisture and scratches. The hood reduces flare from off-axis light sources. The cleaning tools let you maintain optical clarity in the field without separate purchases.

Questions about this item

How close can the 55mm f/1.8 focus before the minimum distance limit appears?

The lens focuses down to its closest marked distance, letting you fill the frame with a subject at the published minimum focus point.

Does the 55mm f/1.8 generate noticeable heat or fan noise during all-day shooting?

The lens has no internal motor or electronics that produce heat or audible noise, so it stays silent and cool in continuous use.

Which camera mount must I already own to attach the SEL55F18Z?

You need a Sony E-mount full-frame or APS-C body to mount the lens directly.
