    The autofocus is a little slow so if you shoot quick moving subjects you may want to go ahead and pay the additional price for a quicker lens. Overall for the price it’s a great buy.

    Good quality lens. Glass it great, let's in a lot of light. Focusing hunts a little if there isn't much contrast in the subject, for example a red subject on a red background

    I have a Sony Alpha 6000 and purchased this 50 mm f1.8 for it. Due to cold weather I’ve only tried it indoors but I am happy with how it performs in low light.
