  • Abstract:  The Sony FE 135mm F1.8 GM is a truly remarkable lens. It's extremely sharp from centre to corner, while at the same time its beautifully soft rendering of defocused backgrounds and bright highlights results in exceptional images. With dust-proof and splas...

  • Excellent sharpness, even wide open, Top-quality build, Smooth AF performance
  • Very expensive next to some rivals, Cat's eye bokeh at f/1.8, Somewhat stiff focus switches
  • As a G Master lens, there's no questioning just what the Sony FE 135mm f/1.8 GM packs, and how it performs. This is clearly a lens that's designed to a high standard, and one that performs very well when partnered with modern Sony mirrorless cameras.Sharp...

  • solid, weathersealed mechanical construction, excellent image quality in the frame centre up from the maximum relative aperture, acceptable image qualtiy on the edge of the frame, very good correction of longitudinal chromatic aberration, negligible later
  • a bit too high astigmatism, visible vignetting on full frame, The mere comparison of pros and cons proves that the Sony FE 135 mm f/1.8 GM is a very welldone lens; if you assess these lists thinking about the importance of every asset and flaw, you will g
  • In fact, the biggest problem of this lens seems to be its price. Over $2000 for a portrait prime is really too much; you have to be really determined to buy such a piece of equipment...

  • Sharp but with smooth bokeh, High-end handling, Top-class build quality,
  • Heavy at 950g, Weighty price tag, No optical stabilization,
  • The upsized sibling to the Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 G Master, this 135mm lens delivers similarly superb all-round performance and gorgeous bokeh. Build quality is rock-solid and handling is sublime, although it's a weighty proposition at just under a kilogram...

  • Abstract:  When I heard that Sony had announced a 135mm f/1.8 G Master lens last winter, I knew that I would have to see how it compared with the excellent Sigma 135mm f/1.8 ART series lens that was announced in Sony E-mount the previous winter. The Sony lens immed...
