  • Compact, Sharp, and Great for Everyday Use
This Sony FE 16-69mm F2.5 G lens is amazing! It’s super compact and lightweight, making it perfect to carry around all day. The image quality is really sharp, and the autofocus is fast and reliable. I’ve been using it for both photography and video, and it handles everything beautifully. Definitely a great lens for anyone looking for quality and portability ... show more

  • As sharp as my 55mm 1.8
the images included were just around my home or in the store parking lot (So not awesome pictures). But just wanted to give you an idea of how sharp it is. It's just as sharp as the 55mm 1.8 that was used at one time. I actually like this lens better, even those it's slower. It has additional controls on the lens for various purposes. I like how it focuses better and it's smaller and newer. It can still do a good portrait at f/2.5, but I also have a 85mm 1.8 and a 135mm lens for that. But if the 50mm would be your only lens for portraits, then you might want to look elsewhere. Though small, you can tell it's extremely high quality. I think the price would be better suited at 400-450 dollars, but to me, it's still worth it at its current price. I had had this lens on loan about a month ago and tested it then and really liked it so finally pulled the trigger. I didn't get the 24mm or 40mm because I already had a 20mm and 35mm lens from other than Sony. So this gives me a 20mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm and 135mm lens setup. I'm sort of a primes guy. I do have one zoom lens, but I just enjoy primes more, but everyone is different, with different uses for their gear. I'm not a wedding photographer, but as a hobby have done a few weddings and also do some events. When doing weddings, I usually take with me a 20mm, 35mm, 85mm and 135mm. The 50mm will be more my travel lens. ... show more

  • Amazing tiny lens
I am a wedding photographer. I added this lens to my arsenal of lenses and it is soon becoming one of my favorite pieces of kit. The images render beautifully, fast and quiet autofocus, and it has no problem finding eyes in low light. Yes it is over-priced! But I am willing to pay a little extra for the compact size and great image quality. 2.5 aperture is more than good enough for me. I have other lenses if I absolutely need to blow-out the background but I find that I rarely need to. I love the lens. If you have the money, you will not regret the purchase. ... show more

  • I bought this a few weeks ago and have used it a good handfull of times....
Its autofocus is really FAST and super smooth. I love its design, the Clairity of the lens is perfect , just like Im actually there (on what im focused/zoomed in on). The weight.... its almost like the lens isnt even on my camera !, the Size of the lens is also perfect just like Im using a sub compact lens ! Manual focus is really easy to do and really simple and fast so you wont miss that perfect shot ! The look and feel of this lens is total luxury. After all I do EXPECT the BEST from SONY and that is what I got ! ... show more

  • Tiny lens but great images
Tiny and light 50mm lens when mounted to my Sony A7IV, like a small APS-C or micro 4/3 camera. Great for street photography. Wish it could open up to F1.8 or F1.4. Also very expensive so it's not a great value. But a keeper for me.

  • Perfect all around lens for a6700 and a7iii
Great little lens. The autofocus is snappy when I put the lens on my a6700.

  • A Nifty Fifty G Lens with Character
I’ve shot Sony a7 Series since first introduced and have, and have tested, multiple lenses. While looking for a compact 50mm, I watched stellar reviews on this one. Despite its f2.5 aperture, the reviews said it provided excellent bokeh and was sharp wide open with a relatively short minimum focusing distance. Well, after shooting a thousand frames on a photo shoot of people, I can say “It’’s all that and more!” This lens has “character” that give images a special look. The lens hood is ugly. I recommend the Fotasy 49mm metal screw mount lens hood for about $10. ... show more

  • Great prime
I normally shoot landscapes, but I decided to get this lens to document time spent with family and friends, as well as take for a compact option when adventuring around town randomly. I absolutely love this lens, it's super sharp, light weight, and compact.
