Sony E 50mm F1.8 OSS Lens SEL50F18B review
If you turn a blind eye to the build quality, the Sony FE 50 mm f/1.8 might be a very attractive alternative for the more expensive Zeiss Sonnar T* 55 mm f/1.8 FE. The cheaper lens is weaker at the maximum relative aperture, that’s true, but on stopping down it provides even higher MTFs while...
Pros:
- Very good image quality in the frame centre,
- Good image quality on the edge of the APS-C sensor,
- Low longitudinal chromatic aberration,
- Imperceptible lateral chromatic aberration,
- Lack of spherical aberration problems,
- Negligible distortion,
- Slight astigmatism,
- Low vignetting on the APS-C...
Cons:
- Image quality near the maximum relative aperture on the edge of the frame could have been a bit better,
- Huge coma,
- Significant vignetting on full frame,
- Slow autofocus.

Sony E 50mm F1.8 OSS Lens SEL50F18B review
The Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 is the fifth standard lens for the full-frame Sony E-mount (excluding the 50mm f/2.8 macro) and it is also one of the least expensive at just shy of $250. Since there currently aren’t many affordable lenses for the system, it is certain to appeal to beginners or those who want...

Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 Lens Review
It is compact, maintaining the spirit of Sony's smaller MILC cameras. It is light and effortless to take with you. It is cheap, making loss or damage a relatively low risk (hint for kid use). And, it is capable of excellent image quality (though not at the widest apertures).

Sony E 50mm f/1.8 OSS (SEL-50F18) - Review / Lens Test
The AF performance is very good for a contrast detection system (albeit highly dependent on the base camera). AF operations are basically noiseless. Manual focusing works "by wire" so the focus ring is not directly coupled to the focus gears but to the AF motor.

Sony FE 50mm f1.8 review
The Sony FE 50mm f1.8 is a very small, light and affordable "standard" prime lens which works with cropped and full-frame Sony mirrorless bodies – indeed it's one of the cheapest autofocus lenses available for the Sony system.
Pros:
- Good resolution and contrast
- Minimal distortions (through lens profile)
- Very small and light
- Very low price
Cons:
- Very visible focus-breathing
- Strong coma
- Some magenta haloing at high-contrast edges

Sony E 50mm F1.8 OSS Lens SEL50F18B review
The new lens features the traditional double-Gauss design with 6 elements in 5 groups. With a minimum focus distance of 1.48’ (0.45m), however, it also features an aspherical element, which is unusual at this level. As you might expect, there are some concessions compared with the high-end models.

Excellent lens for Sony Alpha series bodies.
I've already owned this lens in the past, but I bought this specifically for my Sony a7 for taking better photographs in low light as it has a large f/1.8 aperture. This lens is compatible with both APS-C and full frame Sony mirrorless cameras and will have a 75mm equivalent focal length on cameras...
