Sony FE 50mm f/2.5 G -objektiivi

Although I own the superlative 50mm f1.4 GM lens, I find myself using the 50mm f2.5 G more as its its IQ is so good (and I rarely need f1.4, but it's nice to have that option for certain assignments). The 50mm f2.5G makes a great street and travel lens, even for landscapes too, especially when paired with my A7Cii and, usefully, takes excellent portraits also. Thanks to the high mega pixel count of the A7Cii, using the camera's APSC crop facility (which I have operated to conveniently come on and off via the lens focus hold button), I can turn this 50mm lens into a 75mm lens for close-up portraits with additional background blur (bokeh). When photographing young children being natural, using more compact lenses like this is less intrusive for catching unexpected moments in time. Thanks Sony for producing such brilliant lenses for your cameras!

Perfect holiday lens light and compact, pin sharp, great prime lens.

Love the size and build quality and LOVE the fact that it has an aperture ring as function buttons

I have a Sony A7RII, typically using the 24-105 f/4 G OSS which I love. The first lens I had was the FE 50mm 1.8 standard, which is definitely a budget lens. The autofocus on the FE 50mm 2.5 G is extremely fast with no hunting. The visual quality is great, but there is a small dot on the inside of the last element, which I'm sure hinders quality and sharpness a bit. Overall, I'm disappointed with the flaw, but I still find this lens extremely useful with the option for manual aperture changes. The size is great, and it's an awesome lens for travel. The small hood that is delivered with this lens is a bit strange, but I do like that it's metal, and tough. It does allow for a UV filter/protector to be installed as well.

I purchased the lens as I thought it would work great with my new a7c ii. And I was right. It is one of G lens and its product quality and images from the lens are excellent!! Highly recommend.
