  1. Kicks –

    GReat lens. Good focal length, really sharp photos and portraits.

  2. Kimichihotdog –

    The lens is great for portaits. Great price for the nifty fifty!

  3. fruitbeach –

    I purchase this for my a6300 and it fits perfect! Good focus and make picture very deep!

  4. David –

    Great, inexpensive addition to any Sony mirrorless APS-C camera. I use it on the a6300 and it produces great results.

  5. Alesmaci –

    This lens is amazing, I would recommend anyone to get it.

  6. TheSig –

    Using on a6300 and a6500. Makes me look like a better photographer than I am. Great low light. Impressive bokah. It’s great for landscapes but ended up having to set up too far back for family group photos. Not a fault of the lens, just need a 35mm or smaller for that application.

  7. Garagegods –

    Much better than the kit lense that came with my a 6000 love the lense but now looking into investing in 85mm just a bit more what I need

  8. EchoMike –

    I recently took an interest in photography and purchased this lens for my Sony A6500. First time out and I took some of the best pictures I have ever taken in my life! Definately recommend this lens!

  9. imagic –

    This is an essential lens for anybody seeking sharp images with beautiful background blur. The image stabilization is very effective helps at this focal length. Prime lenses may not be for everybody, but they do perform wonderfully.

  10. Islandgirl –

    I haven’t put down my sony since buying this lens. Trying to teach myself photography and the image quality on my sony a6000 has dramatically improved since upgrading from the kit lens. Must have lens!

  11. Lolo –

    You have to be pretty far away to get a full body shot.

  12. Filip –

    Great lens. Worth every dollar. Love it. Would recommend.

  13. Kris –

    The lens was perfect when i got it no scratches and it takes perfect pictures it’s exactly how i wanted it.

  14. Allyaom –

    I love it and i got cheap price too
    I always got a good quality stuff from best buy

  15. pureflipking –

    This lense is able to provide me with some above average amateur portrait shooting. I was able to mess with the focus easily and this works well with my a6000

  16. Chafamily –

    Best investment ever! I always used the lens that the Sony a5100 came with but once I got this lens that’s all I’ve been using!!

  17. Natnat –

    This lens takes amazing photos and you get that great bokeh with portrait shots. Almost guaranteed great photos everytime.

  18. Photoshopped –

    Lens switches easily to be able to take close up shots.

  19. William –

    We are not professional photographers so we were looking for something that was easy enough to use without having to read the manual. Success! The manual does help you to learn additional tricks, but the auto shoot on our camera adjusts this lens as necessary, so you don’t have to dig through the manual if you don’t want to. We use it mostly for family photos, and they’re turning out clear, crisp, and full of color.

  20. xDeo –

    I am a beginner and still learning. This lense takes great pictures. The images are sharp and I’m able to produce good bokeh with ease. Highly recommend this lense, especially for the price ($250).

  21. Alan –

    Awesome low light 50mm lens. Great fast portrait lens!!

  22. Kalani –

    So far with having this a little over a week now, I’ll have to say it is really great an for price point it cannot be beat. Very fast an sharp lens. I’d highly recommend. It is tough in tight places, just learn to adapt an you will not regret it. Hope you enjoy it if you get it.

  23. Bbbb –

    This lens is amazing for portrait shots. Easy to figure out.

  24. kylewesleyharris –

    Perfect lens! Good alternative from the kit lens. Captures great photos at 1.8 aperture.

  25. Keese –

    Takes beautiful portraits, and with the built in OSS you’ll almost never miss the shot!

  26. Broedy –

    Crisp clear easy to use! Just what I wanted for a range of photos!

  27. Kalani –

    Amazing lens I’d recommend it it’s tight in small places but if you can make it work to your advantage I would get it it for sure, great everything about this lens

  28. Lccc –

    Great lens for the price! The pictures always come out clear and crisp

  29. Neyy –

    Camera lens works great for my Sony a 5100 perfect for portraits

  30. AugLP –

    I got this as a gift and I am so happy with it. Works the same as the other Sony lenses and is a great addition especially for taking senior photos.

  31. Heidi –

    Great lens for the money! Takes sharp images with nice bokeh.

  32. Dustin –

    Great prime lense for the price, produces some great images

  33. Azerharn –

    Wow the nifty 50 was no joke. This guy works great. Clients are super happy

  34. TamN –

    The 50mm lens has been a wonderful upgrade for my camera. I researched a few different lenses and according to DxOMark, this was as sharp as it gets. For what I paid, I’m very happy. The lens is very versatile, shooting (almost) macro, great portraits, fun street-photography, low light, it really does a lot. The focus ring is nice to use, with some resistance but no detents. Some may not like the “electronic” feel of it, but I don’t personally mind. At least it doesn’t spin like it’s on ball bearings. I do enjoy the level of bokeh it offers, although at times, I can see poorly shaped balls. Not a huge deal, this is a relatively cheap lens that still does a really great job taking usable photos.

  35. Ppolliwog –

    Great improvement over kit lens! Haven’t used it much but can already see the difference.

  36. cita –

    the quality of this lens is AMAZING for the price. but, as other reviewers have mentioned, it gives you a super close shot that you can’t adjust so you have to take SEVERAL steps back while shooting. this is okay in wide open spaces. but, in most circumstances, i did not have enough room to take those steps back and i needed to switch lenses to take my photo. i wish i could say it doesn’t bother me too much because i love the quality, but it’s honestly a huge inconvenience.

  37. Edgar –

    Great value. Quit lens. Very light and small. Oss great bokeh pics

  38. Ruben7227 –

    This lens takes wonderful looking pictures. Just in case you were not aware, there is no zoom functionality so you will have to manually adjust your location to get the best show.

  39. tstothers –

    It is very versatile and works very well with The Sony Camera I own

  40. mjcreates –

    I have the 16/50mm kit lens. And decided to get the 50mm prime lens for my A6000 sony. I do a lot of flower photography. Takes nice photos.

  41. Detroit –

    Great for low light, good clarity. Don’t expect closeup with 50mm. Its ok. Wish I had saved money and got something different.

  42. Slider99 –

    Awesome lens, extremely light weight & compact..The colors are amazing..Would defently recommend this lens..

  43. Rich –

    I am a novice photographer, not an expert by any means, but I do recommend this lens for taking portraits.

  44. Luke –

    I added this prime lens to my a6000 kit. The pictures are clean and sharp for an inexpensive lens. Until I got this lens I only had a 35mm macro prime lens and wanted a little more reach and this lens accomplished that objective. I would definitely recommend this lens.

  45. Uppercuts86 –

    I love the optical steady shot and clarity this lense provides. Subject separation is beautiful.

  46. dbilsk442 –

    I have been looking for a prime for my a6300 and knew that I wanted to get into portaits so I knew 50mm was the focal length I was looking for. It creates beautiful bokeh, is fast, and is quiet. I am also extremely happy that it matches my silver body a6300!

  47. edmerckx99 –

    Fantastic lens!! one of the best for the Sony A6k range of cameras.

  48. Toya –

    Its a great len. My brother & I are enjoying the pictures we are taking with it. If you get this len if the picture you want to take is not in focus it won’t take fyi. Other then that money well spent.

  49. Pewpew32 –

    Perfect for your everyday shooting. Crystal clear and great price!!

  50. MissFoxx –

    I have the Sony ZV-e10 in white, besides matching my camera it’s light weight, captures sharp pictures and Best Buy shipped it out quickly
