Review: Good lens for all kind of photoshoot - Good lens for all kind of photoshoot but very pricy.
Review: Really a good beginner lens. I've paired it with my ZVE10 and it works brilliantly, the Boken is so creamy and sharpness is great in comparison to my old kit lens. Though this lens has some amount of chromatic abrasion green and pink hue here and there but it to the untrained eye it won't make much of an issue. Auto focus is super fast. Subject seperation is also very good.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the lens comes with food?**
A: My didnt come with food. I was a little disappointent. My last lens came with a cheeseburger and fries.... :(

**Q: Could someone help me compare this lens to Sony 35mm f/1.8 please? http://www.amazon.com/Sony-SEL35F18-35mm-Prime-Fixed/dp/B0096W1P5W/ref=pd_sim_p_2**
A: I have both. They are quite similar in character, actually (except for focal length obviously). The 35 is more evenly sharp across the frame, whereas the 50 emphasizes the center, but is sharper in the center than the 35. They're both very sharp by f/4, and have similar chromatic performance (notably the longitudinal aberrations are very visible on both below f/4 on both). The 35 focuses a bit faster, especially in low light. I think the magnification at minimum focus is also very similar (.16x or so). The 35 is more compact. The 50 can blur backgrounds more, so it's better for that look, whereas the 35 must be focused somewhat closer to achieve the same background blur, so it's less useful if that's your thing. The hood on the 35 isn't as effective as that of the 50, but it's more compact. The focus rings are similar in feel. The 35 is a bit more prone to lens flare. Overall I prefer the 35 because it's a more versatile focal length, but they are both great lenses. I'd pick the 50 if I were mainly doing portraits, and the 35 if you want a walk around lens with great sharpness and low light ability.

**Q: Is the lens compatible with the Sony mirrorless a6000?**
A: Yes it is

**Q: Is this made or manufactured in Japan?**
A: I do not know if it is made in Japan...but, I think that does not matter.  It is an excellent lens.Hope that this helps.

*by U***N on 13 April 2021*

Les plus : - compact - léger - bonne à très bonne qualité d'image - bonne netteté - aberrations chromatiques présentes mais contrôlées (sauf cas extrême) - AF efficace et silencieux (il a quand même ces limites dans certaines situations) - qualité général - distance minimale de focus assez sympa (juste bonne) - équivalent en plein format d'un 75mm f2.7 (facteur de recadrage de 1.5* apsc) - la stabilisation bonne à moyenne - la focal de portrait pas excellence - un bon bokeh (flou d'arrière plan artistique) en portrait serré comme en portrait de pied - prix raisonnable Les moins : - F1.8 (équivalent en plein format f2.7) c'est bien mais on aurait évidemment préféré un f1.4 - pas grand chose - distance minimale de focus bof Un objectif vraiment sympa pour sa qualité general (image et construction), sa légèreté et compacité, sa stab utile, et son f1.8 bon en basse lumière et très sympa en bokeh ! Il trouvera facilement sa place dans votre sac, et joue pleinement la carte de sony avec sa volonté de compact/léger/abordable. Parfait pour se lancer dans le portrait, attention à la distance de recul, je conseille ! Si ce commentaire vous a aidé, n'oubliez pas de cliquer sur "utile", merci.
