It might not be the perfect lens for a group shot. When the 50 mm is on one of the NEX bodies it magnifies the image by 1.5 times. So a 50mm becomes a 75mm instead. That's what would be essentially a short telephoto which is excellent for a single head shot but might cause the photographer to stand a larger distance away from a group of five people. The 16-50 mm zoom kit lens or the 18-55mm zoom might be better options which can be used in the 24 mm range for what would be the equivalent of a 35mm lens.
