  • NIFTY FIFTY
Style: SEL50F18F/2
Everyone needs this lens in their kit. It the cheapest great quality prime lens Sony has ever released in my opinion. Photos always come out looking crisp and clear with that classic bokeh look. The auto focus is fast and accurate. The lens is compact and lightweight. The one drawback is it is a bit noisy when focusing. A small price to pay for the quality of the stills. This may be the niftiest fifty i've ever owned! ... show more

  • Decent image quality and focus speed results in a decent value lens!
Style: SEL50F18F/2
This lens is pretty similar to the Canon 50mm f1.4. It focuses at about the same speed, and it the noise it makes while focusing is similar. Image quality is good enough. It's sharp, contrasty, flare isn't terrible and I haven't had any significant issues with fringing or CA. On an A7 iii it focuses in about 1 second and does surprisingly well in low light. Yes it does make noise when focusing and it seems like it over shoots a bit and then acquires focus. I haven't had any issues with it missing focus. Overall this is a decent lens when you consider the price. It is comparable with similar offerings from Canon. ... show more

  • Good Lens
Style: SEL50F18F/2
For what it is, it's a good lens that fast and sharp. It produces good quality images while being at an affordable price. The biggest issue has to be it's autofocus capabilities. It is slow and the motors are loud. If you want to take images of fast-moving subjects, I would suggest looking at other lenses but if your work is heavily centered on portraits and you're on a budget, you should consider buying this lens. ... show more

  • Couldn’t be happier
Style: SEL50F18F/2
The media could not be loaded. I love love this lens. It focuses at a decent speed. It is extremely sharp!! I thought it wouldn’t be but it turns out perfect. It’s small and portable so if you’re looking for a lightweight lens, this is the one. The build quality is decent and it is very light. It is equally bright and helps my pictures look very nice and bright. I used it with my Sony A7C and the result is beautiful! ... show more

  • Amazing for the price!
Style: SEL50F18F/2
Ran home from work just to try this lense. I have many lenses but the 70-200mm never leaves my camera but I wanted something small to do portraits. It’s not as fast but does amazing. A little noisy but I don’t mind. I snapped a quick picture of my dog and it did great on low light with a moving pup. Captured her amazing colors really nicely. It is super light. Mostly soft material. Plastic compared to my other Sony/Tamron lenses but you get what you pay for. For the price, can’t beat it! ... show more
