Great quailty Lena for the price!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great value for the price of this lens. Everything looks just as good as the 55mm Zeiss and a fraction of the cost. The only complaint I have is the focus motor is a little loud compared to other Sony lenses but not has loud as Canon EF lenses.

Huge improvement over stock lens
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow, this lens was worth every penny. I was a little iffy about a prime lens, since you can not zoom in or out -- but the results from using this lens are amazing! This lens will allow you to take awesome portraits with blur backgrounds! I have replace my stock lenses with this lens. One thing to keep in mind is how far you will need to be from your subject when using the 50mm lens, it's quite far...you may want to go with the 35mm if you don't have room to stand back 10+ feet when trying to take a group photo.

A good low price 50mm lens.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Image quality is good on the A7 Mark2. Even with the latest firmware updates in the lens and camera, autofocus is still slow, but considering the price, I think it is a very good lens.

Good image quality, not so great auto focus
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was between this lens and the Sony FE 85 1.8. I bought this lens, the image quality is very good especially if you stop at down to F2.8. The problem is the lens seems to hunt with auto focus at least on my A7ii. The lens is also fairly noisy while autofocusing. I ended up returning this after two weeks and getting the 85mm 1.8 which I have been very happy with.
