Sony E 11mm F1.8 Review

The Sony ZV-E10 has become a popular choice for vloggers who live and die by their YouTube views. But its well-established lens system lacks any ultra-wide prime lenses, which are useful tools for recording video at arm's length. The E 11mm F1.8 ($549.99) addresses this shortcoming, and is the widest autofocusing prime you can get for crop-sensor E-mount mirrorless cameras. If you like the view at wide angles and favor the defocused backgrounds an F1.8 lens delivers, the E 11mm is worth a look. Just note that it isn't as well-corrected optically as the next-widest first-party prime for the system, the E 15mm F1.4 G.Wide Angle and Aperture The E 11mm F1.8 realizes a much wider view than the E PZ 16-50mm F3.5-5.6 OSS or E 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 OSS zooms that Sony bundles with its APS-C mirrorless cameras. This new lens squeezes more of the world into the frame, a benefit for photographers who explore urban environments, capture landscapes, or work in tight interiors. Our Experts H...

The Sony E 11mm F1.8 should appeal to landscape specialists and vloggers who want a wide lens that delivers characterful bokeh highlights.

Lightweight, F1.8 prime; Wide-angle view on APS-C cameras; Quick, quiet autofocus; Almost no focus breathing; On-lens function button; Dust and splash protection

Ghosting in backlit scenes; Some chromatic aberration visible; No anti-smudge fluorine glass coating; Hard-edge bokeh might be divisive

In this lens you get everything you should expect from such an instrument– a shapely, lightweight device with a very good aperture fastness that is sharp across the frame up from the maximum relative aperture.

solid, weather-sealed mechanical construction,, moderate dimensions and low weight for offered parameters,, excellent image quality in the frame centre up from the maximum relative aperture,, good image quality on the edge of the frame,, slight lateral chromatic aberration,, properly corrected...

significant vignetting,, very high distortion for RAW files,, a bit too high longitudinal chromatic aberration.
