Great Lens
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this lens when i bought my camera so i was able to get a cheaper price. I would recommend this lens to anyone. It shoots really good pictures and really gives great background blur effects with my Sony A6000. The images below are RAW photos that have not been edited.
I would recommend this to a friend Nifty Fifty for a reason

Window to Life
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was reluctant on getting this lens at first because i thought the quality would be similar to the lens kit. After some research and taking a leap of faith, i decided to give this a go. Boy am i glad i did. My pics. turned out stellar. It was much easier to change the depth and contrast. Using less effort, i was able to capture beautiful photos with minimal adjustments. The result are these photos.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great beginner lens! You just have to mess around with it a little and learn the settings!
I would recommend this to a friendIt's what it is....
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony needs to work on the focusing mechanism on this because it is horrible, but it's very affordable, so this explains why it's crappy in some aspects, A 50 mm is such a crucial lens to have for the value so if you're a beginner I'd highly recommend it bec of the value and the extra training you'll get trying to focus on your subjects lol if you have the $$$, go snag you a zeiss 55 mm 1.4 prime lens! It'll cost you $700-1k but boy it's such a powerful lens, my buddy lets me take her for a spin and boy my shots come back crispy!!
I would recommend this to a friendGood bucket
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent lens for telephoto, Basra te luminous f1.8 is really good to achieve a good bucket
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Lens for Portraits!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for Portraits and car photography, been using it to take some pictures of my mustang, only downside is you have to step back a whole bunch of feet to get whatever it is you want in the shot

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very solid lens. You can't go wrong with a "nifty 50." This is probably one of the best lenses for the price out there.

Good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sharp budget friendly lens. Autofocus is a bit on the slow side though.

Good lens for Portraits and low light.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm using SEL50F18F with my Sony a5000. I wanted to buy SEL50F18 with optical stabilization and it's for aps-c but it costs more. So, I tried SEL50F18F and it never dissapointed me. I'm not using my camera for videos, so I'm happy with that lens. Good sharp portraits, great bokeh, beautiful colors in low-light.
I would recommend this to a friend Sony 50mm f1.8
