Sony FE 100mm F2.8 STF GM OSS lens (Order Now for $1498) incorporates an apodization lens element to create exceptionally smooth, rounded bokeh while maintaining tack-sharp focus on the subject. This newly designed element nearly eliminates peripheral highlight distortion from vignetting and works with the 11-blade circular aperture to produce pleasing out-of-focus areas. However, a side effect of the element is a reduction in light transmission, rated here as T5.6 when set to the lens’s maximum f/2.8 aperture. Using a close focus switch on the lens, 1:4 magnification ratio is possible.
