ソニー SEL FE 14mm f1.8 GM

Even with clouds in the sky, f1.8 let me shoot the Milky Way at a clean, low ISO. The sharpness across the entire frame is just insane.

The close-focusing distance of 25 cm is a lifesaver when I want to sneak in a dramatic foreground detail before pulling back to the full scene. Weighs next to nothing for a lens this fast, so it’s been glued to my camera for city walks all week.

f1.8 at 14mm is just unreal for low-light shots; I took it out at night and the sharpness across the whole frame blew me away. It's honestly wider than I expected, and the focus ring feels precise even in freezing weather.
