Does the Sony E 15mm f/1.4 G fit the Sony a1 II?
Yes, it mounts — both are Sony E. But the Sony E 15mm f/1.4 G is an APS-C lens on a full-frame Sony a1 II, so the body uses only the centre of its sensor (crop mode, lower resolution). The 15mm then frames like 23mm.

What "crop mode" means here
The Sony E 15mm f/1.4 G is designed to cover an APS-C sensor, and the Sony a1 II has a full-frame one. The lens mounts and works, but the body reads only the centre of its sensor to match the lens — a lower-resolution file than the Sony a1 II produces with a full-frame lens. Framing follows the crop: 15mm looks like 23mm.
If you want the Sony a1 II's full resolution, use a full-frame Sony E lens instead — all 76 of them are listed here.

FAQ
Does the Sony E 15mm f/1.4 G fit the Sony a1 II?
Yes. The Sony E 15mm f/1.4 G is a Sony E lens and the Sony a1 II is a Sony E body, so it mounts. Because the lens is APS-C and the body is full-frame, the Sony a1 II switches to crop mode and uses only the centre of its sensor, producing a lower-resolution file.
Will autofocus work?
We do not publish autofocus behaviour — FitMyLens stores only the specs that are fixed facts of the product (mount, focal length, maximum aperture, sensor coverage). Check the Sony product page for AF support on the Sony a1 II.
What focal length will I actually get?
23mm equivalent. In crop mode the Sony a1 II reads an APS-C-sized area, so the 15mm frames like a 1.5× longer lens.
