p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Native Sony Lenses 3D Pop Ranking


Which native E-Mount lenses would you rate and list by the famous "3D Pop" Ranking? Try to collect more native lenses for my A7RII. The 85mm 1.4 G-Master and the 55mm 1.8 Sony Zeiss are glued in my camera-bag currently but I try to go forward... The 35mm 2.8 Sony Zeiss will go since there is really no Zeiss Pop coming over - Sorry to say that. I would be interested how you rate other lenses with the special 3D Pop-Look.

It's entirely subjective, of course, but I think that the Batis 25 and 85 have good pop, as do the Sony 50/1.4 and 35/1.4. Of these, I think I'd rank the 50/1.4 as #1 for pop.

I don't own the Loxia 50 but it also seems to have pop. The Loxia 35 can have pop under the right circumstances.

I really like the pop from the 50mm f/1.4

Based on my impressions, I'd rate it this way. But I'd like to see direct comparisons to proove me wrong

Strong:

New 50 1.4
Loxia 50
Batis 85
Loxia 21
Loxia 35 from f/2.8

Medium, decent:
FE 1.8/55
Batis 25
FE 1.4/35
GM 85 1.4
GM 24-70
FE 4/70-200

Low:
FE 2.8/35
FE 2/28
FE 28-70
FE 24-240

It depends what you mean by 'pop'. For me the 28/2 has plenty because of the colour/contrast it generates .... but it's not 3D (which has a lot to do with lighting and separation from distance to subject and distance from subject to background anyway, which certain lenses can emphasis).

From the choices on this thread, "pop" means high micro-contrast captured by a large aperture lens.

For lenses not making the cut, what could you do in post that would come closest to emulating pop?
Thx

For "3d" and "pop", I think that does depend as much on subject and separation and distance.

I was just mucking around with my Sony Zeiss 55 1.8 against my Canon 18-55 APSC IS ii kit lens at 55mm FF and at 5.6 on my A7s, and there is not a whole lot of difference (the 55 is clearly the better lens at 55mm but maybe not as much as I would have thought).

Have to agree with Lucinda and Guy. The new FE 50 1.4 ZA has incredible pop. Lucinda's car grabs are pretty damn incredible!! From me for example...

Some of you have the 70-200mm GM f/2.8 rather low for 3d pop.

My image begs to differ with you:

Have not shot it yet. But does look nice. I need this lens for one thing only 200mm at F4 and it needs to be tack sharp. For me it's a rental

A couple with the Sony Zeiss 55 1.8, 28-70 FE kit lens at 70mm and FD 24 1.4 L and Sigma 150 2.8 on A7s. Not sure how much some of these will "pop" on this forum.
