    Slow Focus But Great Image Quality

    I tested this lens on my Sony NEX-7. The lens is a bit slow on focus. It is loud while focusing as well. Although the image quality is exceptionally well. If using for portrait photography and manually focusing, the focus ring is exceptionally well. This is the "nifty fifty" for Sony. Great Price point of 199.99 for the image quality.

    For one issue, on the a6000 I can't seem to get video autofocus to work, but I've tested it on my friends' cameras and it worked fine. I plan on upgrading to Full Frame soon and my older 50mm which I did get better performance from was only crop size, so now awaiting my upgrade.
