Sony E 35mm f/1.8 OSS Lens for APS-C Cameras

The Sony SEL35F18 is a 35 mm prime lens designed for APS-C format E-mount cameras. It delivers a 52.5 mm full-frame equivalent angle of view that feels immediately familiar for portraits, street scenes, and everyday storytelling.

Its bright f/1.8 aperture welcomes more light when you work indoors or after sunset and lets you separate a subject from the background with a blur that looks soft and expressive. Photographers who rely on available light or want a cinematic shallow depth of field will find this aperture especially valuable.

Optical SteadyShot technology sits inside the lens and counteracts camera shake, so you can choose slower shutter speeds without reaching for a tripod. This benefit stands out when you shoot handheld video or still images in dim locations.

The autofocus system uses internal focusing, so the lens does not extend while it works. This design keeps the front element steady for filter use and provides focus that feels both quick and quiet, which is ideal when working around people or recording audio.

A carefully arranged optical formula, which includes one extra-low dispersion element and two aspherical elements, maintains crisp detail across the frame while reducing color fringing and distortion. A diaphragm with seven rounded blades shapes highlights into smooth circles for attractive bokeh.

Weighing just 5.43 oz and accepting common 49 mm filters, the lens slips easily into a small bag or even a jacket pocket. Whether you are a traveler who values light gear, a vlogger filming on the go, or a photographer building a first prime-lens kit, this lens balances performance and convenience in daily use.
