Great lens
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great lens! Can't go wrong with a 50mm! This is definitely a must have lens to add to your collection or even to start off with!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat budget lens
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.First off this is a 200 dollar lens. It is not one of the Sony zeiss lenses so I don't expect much from it. Image sharpness to me is good but not great. Lens is however very light weight and fits nicely on camera. The auto focus is noisy and a bit slow on the a72. My A6000 does a much better job with auto focus. Low light the lens has a hard time finding focus. In full manual mode it's great. It's a 200 dollar lens. No complaints.

Better than expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This lens takes some really sharp pictures. It was a pleasant surprise as to how tack sharp the pictures came out. The picture quality is pretty close to that of the Zeiss 55mm. The Zeiss is a little more sharp and it does focus much better but the FE 50 1.8's focus is acceptable and not as slow as some of the reviews here suggested. The FE 50mm is staying and the 55mm is going back.
I would recommend this to a friendLens works as it should.

I would recommend this to a friendNice one trick pony for portraits!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Exactly what it claims to be. 50mm prime portrait lens. It will hunt focus when not in use so turn camera off to save battery
