a must for any e mount user
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The low f stop is crucial for those spectacular portraits and luckily this is at a great price point to get you feeling like a professional with your skills. The focus is quick and quiet and the shots will be clear.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After having spent some time shooting with it now I can say it creates some crisp photos. I’ve used it with an a6000 and it was a big jump from the kit lens.

Posted .Hi Austin. Thank you for sharing your feedback. Its great to hear you are enjoying this new lens compared to your previous one. The Sony 50mm F1.8 is a great step up as it is lightweight, fast and sharp. Thank you for choosing Sony.

Awesome Prime Lens
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing deal for a FE lens. This is the perfect travel sized lens for my set up. I usually run two massive lenses that can get heavy and costly if broken. This nifty fifty lens is the perfect prime lens to get any shot I need when I do not have my usual art lenses available.
I would recommend this to a friendWorth every penny

Great lens for the price
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great lens for an immediate photographer. I disagree with the reviews on this lens. The only downfall is a little noise on auto focus, but it helps to take great pictures. A great price too. Worth every penny!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat lens! Make sure to upgrade firmware
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.AMAZING LENS! (I have Sony a7iii) This will give you that cinematic focal length with amazing blurry background ! Paired this up with a polarizer filter and it’s amazing. Bought the lens July of 2021 and came updated to version 3.0. I’d recommend updating if it’s not at least 3
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Value for Money Prime lens.

Great budget prime
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great prime lens! I read and watched reviews of this lens and was a little weary of it. I was pleasantly surprised by it. One thing I will say that is a bummer is that the autofocus isnt as great as some of my other lenses. Wish it was a little faster but for $200 i really cant complain.
I would recommend this to a friendVery capable lens!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens is a do-all, I’ve been using this lens for about 3 months now, and I’ve shot every thing from couple shoots, to Santa pictures and it is yet to disappoint, combined with my A7RIII, it has been tack sharp images that my clients have absolutely loved!
