Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens

The Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 is a lightweight, compact normal prime lens designed for Sony E-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras (also compatible with APS-C models, providing a 75mm equivalent focal length). Offering a classic 50mm perspective paired with a fast f/1.8 maximum aperture, it is an ideal, versatile lens for portraiture, street photography, low-light shooting, and shallow depth-of-field effects. Its refined optical design includes an aspherical element to control spherical aberrations and deliver sharp imagery, while a DC motor drive provides fast and precise autofocusing.
