Not bad for a cheaper lense
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good lens for the Sony A7iii. Can be very loud and the auto focus misses sometimes but all around it’s a good nifty 50.

I would recommend this to a friendExcellent lens for the price!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Having owned both a zeiss loxia 50 and the sony 55mm for the same camera, I can say that for the price this is an excellent lens. Wide open it's pretty sharp. And at around 5.6 it is 90% as good as thos costing 4 times more. Focusing is a bit noisier and slower but nothing terrible. Again you have to take into account the low price nature of the lens. If you are on a budget, this lens will not disappoint.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bokeh is good, you cant beat the price, image are sharp too and good at low light
I would recommend this to a friendNifty Fifty
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Most convenient lens to carry around. This is aptly named the “nifty fifty.” The form factor is great, most lenses are huge and this one is pretty proportional to the A7iii. It takes crisp photos and has the aperture I need. Get yours already.
