But. despite the excellent image I still throw this little lens on the camera sometimes for around the house and sometimes as a walk around though due to it's size and convenience, although I would love to check out the 55 1.8 for that purpose eventually

Nothing gets me more excited about photography than to snap a picture and immediately review it, zoom it in 100% and see a sharp, clear image

The len produce sharp image at this price and near quality of 55mm f1.8 len

For the price, it's got great image quality

Decent image quality; autofocus is slow and the motor is really noisy

Good image quality in daylight and low light.

It's just that getting that stellar image is sometimes difficult with this lens.

but I like having this setting on to see what the image will look like in real time

The image is great as well

Cheap, good image quality, lots of controlCons: slow, loud.

Makes a lot of noise when focusing but the images are nice.

if you don't care about this lens getting beat upCons- cheap build- images are not sharp- extremely slow and loud Auto focusing (compared to the Sony Zeiss, G, and Gmaster series)

The images were nice but zoomed in at 100% they weren’t $2300 nice

In terms of picture quality, it does actually take pretty stellar images.

It produces a good sharp image and smooth bokeh

It's just that getting that stellar image is sometimes difficult with this lens.

It's a 50mm lens, it produces beautiful images on the A7, and most importantly, it doesn't cost half the price of the A7

This is an affordable lens that provides very nice images

" Canon 50mm 1.8, would offer exceptional image quality on a budget.

If you stop down a couple stops, it's perfectly capable of capturing sharp images

If you stop down a couple stops, it's perfectly capable of capturing sharp images

The image is not sharp at f1.8 and chromatic aberration is obvious

Great clean image and nice bokeh.

The lens barrel extends when focusing, which is slower than in lenses with external focusing, but this design provides better image quality without additional optical complexities

Expect good clean images at around f3.5-4 and if you are using full frame you get pretty good bokeh

I’ve never seen images this sharp

This lens on a Sony A7 camera produced excellent images.

But it's no where near as slow as it was after updating my camera software!

Not as sharp as i would hope but you can correct that in post

(not the G just the basic) are fantastic as well
