Wide-angle prime
35mm F1.4 G SAL35F14G
35mm prime lenses are a staple for many photographers. The angle of
view provided by this focal length is one of the most comfortable and
versatile on both 35mm full frame format and APS-C format cameras, and
with that, this lens can be used for anything from close-ups to landscapes.
The SAL35F14G, with its superb optics and large F1.4 maximum aperture, is
one of the finest fast 35mm lenses in its class. In addition to no-compromise
G Lens construction and quality throughout, it features an optical design
that includes an aspherical lens element that contributes to consistently
superior, low-distortion image quality right up to the F1.4 maximum aperture.
You can shoot wide open in low light knowing that the entire scene will
be captured with equally superb clarity and contrast. The large maximum
aperture and circular aperture design are also an advantage when you
want to isolate your subject from a busy background, for example, allowing
you to defocus unwanted detail so your subject stands out.

Telephoto prime
300mm F2.8 G SAL300F28G
If you’re serious about shooting sports, nature, or wildlife, or just about any
subject that moves and needs to be shot from a distance, this is a lens
that you’ll want to have in your kit. 300mm is the sweet spot for a wide
range of telephoto applications, and its large F2.8 maximum aperture
makes it possible to use motion-stopping shutter speeds when shooting
fast action, as well as to control depth-of-field for creative defocusing.
Chromatic aberration can be a problem in telephoto lenses, but the
SAL300F28G uses three ED elements in a top-class optical design that
reduces aberration to a minimum, ensuring high resolution, high contrast
image quality at all aperture settings. A minimum focusing distance of just
2 meters is another advantage that is rare in a lens of this type, letting you
take advantage of telephoto characteristics at close range.
