  10. LuJr

    I’ve purchased this lens on three separate occasions, and would purchase it again and again. For many years, I’ve always come back to it because for the price, you get exceptional results, when compared to much more expensive lenses. If you’re on the fence, and not quite sure if you should buy it.. do so before they’re gone! You’ll be glad you did!

  11. Worldsickcreations

    Has a light spec inside of the lens that shows in some images,slower auto focus but shouldn’t matter if u shoot manual

  12. JewelJose

    perfect lens for amateur photographers. Budget friendly lens. Super quality images.

  15. JoelR

  16. dorionfire

    Lens is great i shoot with a 40mm manual voighlander and wanted some good sony autofocus on my a7r4 and this lens does not disappoint plus the low light is great.
    If youre on the fence about the lens dont hesitate just grab it.

  17. JTay

    I love this lens so much!! It was perfect out of the box!

  18. MonikaC

    Very good quality in the construction, a lens good for the price

  19. Partymeister

    Everybody needs a Nifty Fifty! This is nice and sharp, f/1.8 is great, excellent addition for my a7iv after being Canon for so long.

  20. RafaelP

    Love it couldn’t have asked for a better budget lense

  21. RobertM

    Fantastic quality. Nice and light. Good zoom companion.

  22. GinelginW

    Awesome lens! Takes a while to auto focus sometimes but I love it.

  23. EddieN

    Great buy! I just got my FX30 & I love this lens for it

  24. ZacheryH

    Perfect all-around lens for almost any occasion, it’s been the perfect size for every opportunity I’ve had to use it with my a7iii

  25. TjReviews

    Great prime lens to start with for the beginners.
    Best budget nifty fifty lens for sony ecosystem.
    These lens struggle a lot in low light to autofocus, but can’t really complain for the price and pictures it delivers are stunning.

  26. DudleyA

    Good prime lens. Recommend as a daily lens. Buy it.

  27. LuisD

    I didn’t really like this lens, The focus mechanism takes time to focus.

  28. NinjaAirFryer

    A great lens for any level of experience photographer. The auto focus works great. The 50mm lens increase the quality of pictures I take.

  29. Matthew

    Great lens for the price. I’m not a professional, but this takes solid portraits and helps with low light shots because of the large aperture. Only downside is it’s a fixed focal length, meaning you can’t zoom, so you have to physically move around to get the ideal shot. I use this on a Sony A6000.

  30. Audiognome

    Really sharp pictures. Nice quality lens and compact.

  31. Loso

    A buy this one cause the other one i have can take picture from far away not close pic, so with this one i can take beautiful close pic

  32. Dee15

    I’ve been able to capture amazing picture with this lens. It’s super easy to attach and I have noticed a huge difference in the quality of photos I capture and they now require minimal editing

  33. user445457

    Nice lens for the price! Definitely a slower lens but other than that it takes really great portraits!

  34. Gawby

    I bought this lens with a Sony a7 III mirrorless camera. That came with a Sony FE 28-70 mm F3.5-5.6 OSS kit lens. Let me tell you, that kit lens is NOTHING compared to this 50mm f/1.8 lens. Obviously, there is some zoom in that kit lens, but it does not take sharp pictures like this little guy does. Super crisp and detailed shots! You will not regret buying this lens! It takes great landscape shots as well as superb portraits! The bokeh is really nice. Highly recommended! And especially for the price. DO IT! BUY IT!

  35. AndrewP

    Got this for the wife for Christmas to go with her camera. She loves it!

  36. PeleChakaBoom

    Clear lens.
    I love the quality and how sharp the image is.

  37. JuanS

    Spectacular lens for the money. This has become my fave portrait lens. Fast, light and inconspicuous. It will always be in my Sony a7iii

  38. LunarPhase

    When used in manuel mode, this is one of the easiest to focus lenses I’ve ever used! I nail the focus every time within seconds. It renders colors beautifully, has lots of contrast, and is incredibly sharp. It works really well in low light conditions. However, the bokah is not perfectly circular, and is a little harsh. If youre hoping for that dreamy nighttime portrait look, this may not be the lens for you. Otherwise, its an amazing all-around lens, and really can’t be bested for the price. Take this over any kit zoom lens every time! Probably one of the best focal lengths for beginners too.

  39. SaiK

    As a photographer, I’m constantly on the lookout for gear that combines quality with value, and the Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 lens is a shining example of this balance. Known for its versatility, this lens is a fantastic choice for anyone using Sony’s full-frame mirrorless cameras.

  40. Javier

    Really enjoy using the new lens, pictures come out with better quality!

  41. Beginner

    I think the 50 mm 1.8 is great. I like the way my photos came out I like the details overall this is a great lens

  42. MariluV

    I love my new lens! easy to use, not heavy. I like the luminosity.

  43. RaguramanV

    This product does not meet even a standard requirement. Returned it within a day of purchase. Very inferior quality.

  44. JazminS

    Loved it! It is an excellent professional lens, great performances

  45. Tyler

    For the price, it is an outstanding value. I got it for 200 bucks on Black Friday, and it is by far the best impulse purchase I’ve ever bought. The autofocus is loud, and not the best I’ve seen. But the quality is top notch. The photos that this thing takes are outstanding.

  46. Mariah

    One of my favorite lenses of all time. Super compact and easy to bring around, throw in a bag, or leave on my camera. Who doesn’t love a nifty fifty

  47. RaymondB

    Great Lens, I have been using ever since the day I bought it. Great quality and great price for the quality.

  48. Michaelangelo

    Great lens to start with photography. Great for portraits! This lens doesn’t zoom in or out, but at the right focus and angle you’ll get stunning photos!! Definitely a good deal for a cheap price!

  49. JonathanF

    Needed a low light camera lens. Bought this last minute and it’s one of my favorite lens at the moment for the price!

  50. EricM

    The lens is easy to use and takes beautiful pictures. It is a very good kens for portraits and an excellent value.
