Best focal length
Perfect balance between 35mm and 50mm. You can compose wide photos for street photography kinda close to what you could do with a 35mm lens and allso use it as a portrait lens like a 50mm. Paired it with my A7Cii, which is the best everyday carry camera. The lens is sharp, very versatile and very lightweight considering it has a focus ring, aperture ring which you could turn on and off the click mechanism, autofocus and manual focus switch and a custom button. It packs a lot of feature in a very small package and great value for the price.

Excellent lens from Sony
This is definitely an excellent lens from Sony! I use this lens with my Sony A7Riii and the picture details are amazing. I also use this lens with Sony's Clearimage function where this prime lens turns into a zoom lens without losing any sharpness or picture detail. Amazing all around lens!

Great lens
Crisp images with a smooth focus for recording video. Good for wider street shots that you can easily crop down cleanly later
