The 23 mm f/1.4 is a very fast-aperture prime for APS-C on Sony E-Mount. It is equivalent to 35 mm on full frame, a classic reportage focal length. The wide opening permits short shutter times and shallow depth of field. At 30 cm minimum focus it reaches 1:10. It suits street, reportage and everyday photography.
