Sony SAL50F14Z Specification Guide

Like other large-aperture Carl Zeiss® lens designs, this f1.4 lens is simply magnificent in its ability to

capture brilliant high-resolution images in low-light conditions requiring fully open aperture.

SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor)

Designed for fast, smooth, silent automatic focusing, this unique technology achieves high torque at

low speed with rapid start/stop response. It operates through the ability of a piezoelectric device to

reshape itself quickly when voltage is applied.

Glass-Molded Aspherical Lens Elements

These precision lens elements correct distortion for sharper, more visually accurate images.

ED (Extra-low Dispersion) Glass

Because light of different wavelength (or color) bends at different angles when it passes through a

lens, ED (Extra-low Dispersion) Glass is used in Carl Zeiss® lenses to eliminate chromatic aberration by

correcting certain wavelengths of light for sharp, clear images with well-defined colors.
