Looks amazing!
|Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the sony ZV-E10 with the kit lens and fir what it was, it wasnt bad. But i really really wanted a full frame body and just a lens for right now. So I got the Sony A7C with this lens because it was $200 cheaper than buying the Sony A7C with the kit lens. I’m wayyy more happy with this lens. It looks sooo good.

Great budget lens for Sony
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As other reviews point out, the autofocus speed (slow) and noise (loud) cannot be understated. If these things don't matter to you and you are looking for that nifty-fifty lens on a budget, don't hesitate. I bought this just to have the 50mm option in my kit, knowing I'll eventually upgrade. It's a great lens to use for starting out at this focal length.

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
I would recommend this to a friendBest 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.
