50mm 1.8 first lens
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I'm new to the whole camera deal I was really into shooting with just my phone. So I decided to take my creativity to the next level grabbed a sony a7iii and a 50mm lens . It's all a huge learning curve but I'm loving every minute of it so far the 50mm for me is doing great I'll purchase more lenses when I'm comfortable with the camera and lens

Great little lens.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted an inconspicuous lens to mount on my Sony a73. The G master lenses are very large and draw too much attention and situations where you need to use caution. I recently traveled to a Third World country. I did not feel secure walking freely with a large set up. I bought this lens. The size of the lens and weight allowed me to move freely and capture what I intended without unwanted attention. In a world of dizzying sharpness and fascination with ultra clear images, This lens is not it. However, there is a very likable personality with this 50 mm. This has become my go to street lens.

Best lens for your money hands down
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have shot with this lens for nearly 2 years and have designated it as my go to portrait lens. You can spend a lot of money to ‘upgrade’ but the quality this lens puts out is phenomenal. I haven’t had any issues here. Photos are sharp and the 1.8 aperture is totally satisfying.
