Excellent starter lens
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best starter lens you can buy for your 6000+ series Sony shooter, a bit of a learning curve and the main drawback is there is no zoom (obviously), but amazing performance, even in low light conditions

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice lens for the camera. Takes really good and better pictures.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat quality but loud
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The focal length and price were incredible but the stepping motor who focusing was so loud it was questionable. I would avoid it for any video due to the motor.

Sharp and fast…but
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic lens. Excellent build quality. Great price. I gave it 4 stars as my one complaint has to do with the constant hunting when autofocus is turned on. Otherwise this lens would be perfect. Sharp and very fast.

Light weight and very cheap! Awesome Optics.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens is so cheap considering how good it is. Nifty Fifty is a must! It’s also very lightweight which helps with gimbals for video.

Good for beginners
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.makes amazing, sharp pictures. Good for the beginners. One of the cons is that it’s a prime lens which means that you can’t zoom in or out.
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hello MaxA, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are happy to hear you are enjoying the lens quality. We appreciate you sharing your opinion. Being a prime lens, its main perk and definition is a fixed focal length. The trade off that you are gaining is the compactness and sharpness compared to lenses that can zoom. We would love to invite you to check out our zoom lens lineup as well. Thank you again for choosing Sony. Sony's commitment to customer satisfaction is our top priority. -Linda Sony Social Support
Nice budget lens for portrait
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife and I both shoot the occasional portraits for family and friends. Nice sharp lens and nice out of focus areas when you want that soft bokeh background. I use it mainly for nature photography. All in all a great lens for the price.

Won't disappoint
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What an amazing lens. I went for this instead of the Sony, honestly I was worried about the quality don't however after using this lens for one day was completely blow away. Go for it, it won't disappoint
I would recommend this to a friendSmall, Lightweight, Inexpensive but So So Quality
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a small prime lens. At $250 a f/1.8 is quite a steal. But autofocus is slow and noisy. I could live with that though. But the first photo I took was of my cat laying about in the sun. Her whiskers on one side was fringed pink and fringed green on the other. I returned this lens -- partly because of the photo quality and partly because I realized I really wanted a nice zoom instead of a prime. The 24 - 105mm f/4 I got instead is almost 6 times the price but I'm going to use it and enjoy it much more. But for $250, the 50mm/f1.8 a decent lens for cheap. Note that I used this lens on a Sony A7 M3.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendSony 50mm lens
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a very good lens. I enjoy its ease of use and it’s amazing low light performance. This will be right up there with my top Sony lenses. I enjoy the quality I always get at Best Buy.
I would recommend this to a friendAwesome lens for price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You get what you pay for. For the price not a bad lens. Takes sharp photos. Had nice settle bokeh. Lightweight and not bulky. Quality of build is good enough for me.
