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!

About Sony FE 50mm F/1.8

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.

From capturing stunning portraits to low-light photography, the Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 lens for E-mount mirrorless cameras and compatible Sony Handycams is a versatile addition to your photography gear. Weighing a mere 6.7 ounces, this lightweight lens is designed for optimal portability without compromising on performance. Its wide f/1.8 aperture maximizes light intake, enabling you to shoot longer in low-light conditions and utilize lower ISOs for effective noise reduction.

The unique circular aperture of this Sony 50mm f/1.8 lens creates beautifully round light points when fully open, as opposed to typical polygons, resulting in a smooth bokeh effect that renders defocused backgrounds with a creamy aesthetic. This lens is ideally paired with full-frame cameras to leverage the shorter focal length, but can also be used with crop sensor cameras for longer effective focal lengths.

Equipped with a powerful and quiet motor, this lens ensures fast and agile focusing, making it an excellent choice for videography as the noise of focusing won't interfere with your soundtrack. The lens incorporates advanced elements that mitigate lens flare, ghosting, and chromatic aberration, ensuring your photos are clear, precise, and high-quality.

The Sony FE 50mm F1.8 Prime Lens, bundled with a Hoya 49mm UV+CPL Filter Kit and Cleaning Kit, features a new optical design with an aspherical element that effectively compensates for all forms of aberration, delivering crisp, beautiful imagery. Its maximum F1.8 circular aperture produces an appealing 'bokeh' in images, allowing your subject to stand out against a smoothly defocused background.

Built for durability, this prime lens features a solid metal mount, making it resilient to everyday use. Experience the benefits of a wide aperture prime lens with this compact and high-value Sony FE 50mm F1.8 lens bundle.

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.

Warranty Information

This product has a limited warranty of 12 months for parts and 3 months for labor.
