  • great for low light and portraits also very versatile
Style: SEL50F18F/2
I got this lens thinking I would use it occasionally for some night shots, and some portraits. I didn't think I would get as much use out of it as I do.While it is true that the autofocus is slower than my other sony lens, and it's somewhat audible, it is sharp, when you're using it

  • 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

  • great investment
Style: SEL50F18F/2
This is the lens I've been looking for for a long time. It really gave me what I was looking for for my photos. It helps me focus easily. Is it worth the investment

  • 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

  • Great lens
Style: SEL50F18F/2
Every professional photographer has a 50mm lens, which are used for portraiture. They call them a nifty fifty. I don’t go that far, but they have a unique property where they can have a depth of field that keeps the subject in focus, but blurs things behind it. It can give you a nice effect that eliminates distractions and makes you focus on what’s important. ... show more

  • Fast lense, nifty fifty
Style: SEL50F18F/2
This is the lens that should be in every photographer's bag. I don't say it is flawless. But for that price, the quality is excellent. And trust me, you will find so many cases to use the lens

  • 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

  • Works great!
Style: SEL50F18F/2
I purchased this for my girlfriend to use with her Sony a7 ii. The image quality is fantastic, including great autofocus, night lighting, and bokeh. It's incredible how well it works given the price point. This lens is great and I highly recommend it!
