Customer Ratings & Reviews

Sony make a such wonderful lens in such low price, it is sharp and light compact. Con. focus a bit slow, but not that bad if you are slow shooter

Really sharp even may be sharpest than more Sony expensive lenses, little distortion but not that much, cheapest FE Sony lens . But very good

If you want a lens for better portraits and better focal points, this is the way to go.

I got it to do effective portraits and was sold on the nice handling of the out focus background or bokeh(?). In any case, great value and only tries one picture and love it.

It's a wonderful addition to an amazing camera. It takes professional looking pictures even for those of us not yet at the professional level.

Not I’m the best quality for professionals but takes great pics and videos for the everyday shooter

I should have bought this when I got the camera a year ago this is by far the best purchase I have made in my photography kit.

While not as cheap as Canon’s nifty fifty, it’s a solid grab if you have canon or Nikon glass and you want a native Sony lens

Purchased this lense to take portraits on my Sony a6000. The quality is amazing. Also impressed with the auto focus and background blur.

Gave this to a friend and she loves it. Now we can take all kinds of pictures in the park and at waterfalls.

This has been a great lens for the price so far. It's the first prime I've ever bought and we're really enjoying it.

I bought this lens as a discount package with the Sony A7 alpha ii. I exchange the lens for a duplicate because the original would hunt for a subject. It made mechanical noises auto focusing in and out by itself. The focus also wouldn't lock. The lens itself felt very lightweight because it was made of cheap plastic. I was very unsatisfied with this lens and the Sony camera system. I have since returned the entire Sony system.

I like this lense. With it I am able to take excellent portion pictures. Can’t wait to start using it this summer and spring.

lightweight and very nice. ts barrel is sturdy polycarbonate and its lens mount is metal —it doesn't feel like a cheap lens.

Very inexpensive for the images it delivers, plus that pretty large aperture. The focus is a bit slow, with a pretty loud motor for focusing. The focus motor noise makes it unsuitable for video, fine for stills though.

I haven't shoot a lot but the times that i did shoot some picture i like it Exceeded my expectations I used with my sony A3000

This lens is very crisp and is a reasonably fast, good starter kit lens with decent bokeh.

Great for the price. A very good addition to the a 7 3 camera. Would definitely recommend to a friend or any one

Perfect for portraits with a blurry background. You have to be very far away from subject because the lens is very zoomed in.

This works great with my camera. It helps you capture great pictures. I made lovely memories while on vacation.
