    What an excellent camera lens!! Just what I needed. Great price point as well. Makes my photos look so much better than the stock lens that comes with the camera.

    Sony FE 50mm f/1.8

    Its a good little lens for the price it was. I will be changing it out soon though because it is fairly slow in terms of focusing. It also is a bit noisy, which is distracting to me. Its worth it for beginners or those who aren't ready to pull the trigger on the pricier 50mm f/1.4

    This lens is so clear. I use it on my a7 iii and the pictures are magnificent. It has great focus. It takes very good pictures in low light situations.

    I really needed stabilization on this one. The picture quality is awesome.. the lens is light and low light performance is on par. I hope to get the oss one and a step up to the g lens when I get more money

    Honestly for the price this is beyond worth it. Especially if your Camera is using firmware 3.0. Great quality per dollar. Only wish it had better weather sealing.

    Great lens takes Sharp and crisp photos. It is much better than the kit lens. The only reason why I gave it four stars was because it’s hard to get on. But I would recommend this is somebody else

    You can never ever go wrong with the nifty fifty. Always a good starter lens and can use it instead of the super costly 1.4.

    Great lens, but especially a great price for a full frame lens! The autofocus can be a bit loud and doesn’t work very fast so good luck with getting pictures in motion. Good for low light portraits.

    A unique lens, despite not going past 1.8 for the aperture, it is still a beautiful glass and would recommend buying for portrait shots
