To G or not to G is the question and the answer is ... no. The Sony 35mm f/1.4G may offer lots of creative potential thanks to its ultra-large max. aperture but technically it is not an overly impressive lens especially in relation to its very steep price tag.
Yes, it is a bit heavy and expensive for a 35mm, but you get what you pay for. And good glass is heavy. I first played with this lens at the Sony Store here in NY City about three months before I decided I had to have it.

Heavy, expensive
If like me you love the 35mm focal length there are not a lot of options for us A mount full frame shooters. There is expensive and very expensive. I put off getting a 35mm as long as I could.

A little slow in low light
The sony 35mm 1.4 G must be their most underrated lens. Granted at 1.4 things look a little hazy. But anything above 1.4 is truly a joy to look at. Best bokeh I have seen from a 35 for a dslr. It is really smooth and creamy. Not to mention at f1.7 or 2.0 This is sharp and lovely.
