Sony FE 50mm F1.8 lens product description

Versatile 50mm Prime for Full-Frame Photography

The Sony FE 50mm F1.8 is an essential prime lens for any full-frame E-mount photographer. Combining a classic focal length with a bright aperture, this lens is perfect for everything from street photography to high-end portraiture. Despite its professional capabilities, it remains incredibly compact and weighs just 186 grams, ensuring it never feels like a burden during long shooting sessions.

Exceptional Optical Clarity and Rendering

Engineered for the high-resolution sensors of the Alpha series, this lens features an updated double-gauss optical configuration. By incorporating an aspherical element, it effectively suppresses spherical aberration and coma. This results in sharp, lifelike detail and consistent rendering across the entire frame, while also minimizing field curvature and distortion.

Creative Control with F1.8 Bokeh

The large F1.8 maximum aperture is a powerful tool for creative expression. It allows for a shallow depth of field, making your subject pop against a smoothly defocused background. The 7-blade circular aperture enhances this effect, producing dreamy, natural bokeh that adds a professional dimension to your images.

Reliable Performance in Any Light

Low-light environments are where the Sony FE 50mm F1.8 truly shines. The wide aperture allows for faster shutter speeds in dim interiors or night scenes. When paired with Sony cameras featuring in-body image stabilization, you can capture crisp handheld shots without relying on high ISO settings. The integrated DC motor drive system ensures focus is fast, quiet, and precise for both stills and video.

Note: Focus motor sound may be recorded when shooting movies.

Built for Longevity

This lens is designed to withstand regular use. It features a solid metal mount that provides a premium feel and enhanced durability, ensuring a secure connection to your camera body for years to come.
