Great Lens!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens takes a bit of practice to get just right, but when you do.. Oh man, it's a game changer. Really good for mid to long shots of cars and car rollers. Highly suggest for car photography.

Great image quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good image quality but auto focus is a bit slow tends to hunt but nails focus every time which is the importance. No eye auto focus as well. But for its price I would definitely purchase again

A1 performance for price
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of my favorite lenses. The nifty fifty, with such low aperture and such an awesome focal length you genuinely can’t go wrong with this lens. 10/10.

Solid Lens
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good lens, it’s a little loud so I would recommend upgrading to the Zeiss 55mm if you’re a videographer or just have the extra cash; but this is a solid lens on a budget

Super images
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this lens it takes very crisp images and I can barely tell the difference between this and the zeiss 55 1.8 images for almost $1000 cheaper it's worth it!

Nifty Fifty
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The 50mm should be in every photographer and videographer’s Arsenal. This is great lens for a great price. Sony lenses can carry an absorbent cost but not the case with the “nifty 50”

Meh.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’ve used this a few times this month. Idk if the images are so good because of the camera or the lens or both. The lens is super super loud when it sit focuses. The lens is zoomed in and not very helpful for most every day situations.

Great quailty Lena for the price!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great value for the price of this lens. Everything looks just as good as the 55mm Zeiss and a fraction of the cost. The only complaint I have is the focus motor is a little loud compared to other Sony lenses but not has loud as Canon EF lenses.
