Sony E-Mount FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens

The Sony E-Mount FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens is a Full Frame format lens with a 35mm focal length equivalent of 75mm. It also performs well under low-light settings due to its f/1.8 maximum aperture. Constructed with 6 lens elements in 5 groups, it features one Aspherical Lens Element to reduce spherical aberration. Distortions and curvature are also reduced by the Double Gauss Optical Configuration. Meanwhile, the 0.45m minimum focusing distance allows you to zoom in closer to the subject. This lens is also equipped with a DC Motor Drive System which features a DC Actuator for efficient autofocus. Amazing bokeh effects can also be achieved through the seven-blade circular diaphragm. Compatible with Sony E-Mount Cameras, the Sony E-Mount FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens has a 49mm filter diameter and is built with a metal bayonet for improved durability.

Product Features in Detail

Mobile and manageable for active shooting
Although it is a full-frame lens, this model is compact and weighs only 186 grams. Whether on the camera or in your bag it won't be a burden, and it'll be ready whenever needed. The size and weight of this lens are an excellent match for compact α7 series bodies, providing outstanding overall portability and handling.

Lifelike detail, texture, and gradation
An updated double-gauss optical configuration with an aspherical element minimizes spherical aberration and coma for sharp, high-quality rendering throughout every frame. The double-gauss design also suppresses field curvature and distortion.

Dreamy large-aperture prime lens bokeh
A large F1.8 maximum aperture and 7-blade circular aperture work together to create beautiful background bokeh that can make subjects stand out. Placing a sharply focused subject in front of a smoothly defocused background is an essential technique for producing deep, dimensional images.

DC motor focus
A new DC motor drive system has been carefully designed and implemented for optimum focus precision and speed as well as quiet operation. This system provides the same smoothness for autofocus and manual focus control. Note: Focus motor sound may be recorded when shooting movies.

Shoot at night or in dimly lit interiors
The large F1.8 maximum aperture is an advantage when shooting night scenes or in dimly lit interiors. When used with an α series camera body that features in-body image stabilization, even greater low-light capability enables handheld capture of clear images in dark scenes without having to use excessively high ISO sensitivity.

A lens you can depend on
A metal mount adds a sophisticated feel as well as solid durability.
