    I like the quality it produced BUT the auto focus and noise is way too Obnoxious. Sony could have done better with this one. non the less, great lens for the price.

    I have only two lenses one for Portraits and one for Sports photography. sony's 50 mm is best suited for indoor and outdoor Portraits. It is very much affordable and a must for portraits and landscapes too. f1.8 is fast enough in low light conditions but sometimes searches for focus. Can be used for videography too.

    Get the job done for most easy pictures of your taste. And low budget on the market so it’s fair.
