An Beginner's MUST

I love this lens, period. Nearly half a pound lighter than the 28-70mm kit lens and an inch shorter, it's instantly become my daily driver. Sure, it's a plastic mount, focus is a little sluggish, and it's not as sharp as the G or GM equivalent, but you can't beat the price comparatively. I highly recommend this for any beginner or new Sony user, especially for full-frame cameras.

Used 50mm f/1.8 is a great bargain

I bought the 50mm f/1.8 Sony lens used and it did not disappoint. It's sharp and lovely for portraits. The f/1.4 would have been nice, but too pricey. This one will do nicely.

Good Quality Lens for the Price

I'm an intermediate shooter and usually shoot in videographer situations, and I do some photography as well. I really like this lens. Being able to shoot with an f-stop as wide as 1.8 is really nice for darker shooting situations. For the price, this is a quality lens.

Photos are good but the video quality is where I think it shines. Yes at times the AF can be loud, but if it's just for a cinematic videos this lens is great. Also for the price this lens is legit!

FEATURED REVIEWS

Great value.

By ewoodsphoto

Older tech focus motor is a bit noisy and a tad sluggish compared to some of Sony's speedier lenses, but it is not that bad in either regard. But... Sharp on center. Great bokeh. Thin DOF. Great colors. Exactly what I expect from a nifty fifty.

Great for Portraits

By JRHJohn47

I had the 55mm 1.8 Zeiss Lens and for the price point of that lens I was able to get two other lens with one being the 50mm 1.8 FE by Sony. I really could not tell a difference between the two unless under microscopic examination and that was with aberration and even then I was hard pressed to tell a difference. Otherwise, I recommend the 50mm for the price point.

An essential tool for photography enthusiasts and professionals alike, the Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens for Sony E-mount cameras is a high-quality, versatile prime lens that offers exceptional performance in a compact and lightweight design. Weighing just 6.7 ounces, this lens is a portable powerhouse, perfect for capturing stunning portraits, vivid street scenes, and dynamic everyday moments.

Crafted with precision, the lens features an innovative optical design that includes an aspherical element, which effectively minimizes various forms of aberration, resulting in sharp, clear images with exquisite detail. The wide f/1.8 aperture not only facilitates maximum light gathering for impressive low-light photography but also contributes to the lens's ability to create images with a shallow depth of field. This allows photographers to isolate their subjects with a beautifully smooth, creamy bokeh, thanks to the lens's circular aperture that avoids the typical polygonal shapes of defocused light points.

The Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 lens is engineered to be reliable and durable, with a solid metal mount that can withstand the rigors of daily use. It is an ideal choice for both full-frame and crop sensor Sony E-mount cameras, providing a standard 50mm focal length on full-frame models and a longer effective focal length on APS-C cameras, expanding its utility across various shooting scenarios.

Equipped with a fast and quiet autofocus motor, this lens ensures agile focusing that is especially beneficial for video creators, as the focusing noise won't disrupt your audio recording. Advanced lens elements are incorporated to reduce lens flare, ghosting, and chromatic aberration, ensuring that your photos and videos are crisp and free from common optical issues.

This bundle enhances the lens's value by including a 49mm filter kit to protect the lens and enhance image quality, a sturdy lens case for secure transport, a lens cleaner to maintain optimal clarity, a comprehensive cleaning kit for upkeep, and a lens cap tether to prevent loss of the lens cap.

Whether you're a budding photographer or a seasoned pro, the Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens bundled with essential accessories is a smart investment for anyone looking to expand their creative capabilities with a reliable, high-quality lens that delivers outstanding results across a wide range of Sony E-mount cameras.

Sony FE 50mm F/1.8 Features

  • Smooth defocusing: The F1.8 maximum aperture opens up a world of beautiful prime-lens bokeh. The large F1.8 maximum aperture is also an advantage when shooting night scenes or in dimly lit interiors.
  • 7-blade circular aperture: The 7-blade circular aperture maximizes the beauty of large-aperture prime-lens, contributing to impressive images in which the subject stands out against a smoothly defocused background bokeh.
  • Refined optical performance: The lens has an innovative optical design to achieve clear, high-quality images by effectively minimizing distortion and chromatic aberration. A double-gauss configuration effectively suppresses field curvature and distortion, while a precisely placed aspherical element controls spherical aberration and coma
  • Solid Durability: Designed for reliability in a wide range of environments, the metal mount adds a sophisticated feel as well as solid durability.
  • Fast, agile focusing: Fast and accurate autofocus is achieved with a newly developed DC motor focus actuator system which drives all lens groups for optimum focus precision and speed as well as quiet operation.
