Combine with some off camera flash you'll get some amazing results (I used Yongnuo 560 III).
-
I have used this in professional shoots on my A6000 and the results are great
-
I actually used this lens exclusively for some of my first paid photo shoots (indoor stage performances) to great results
-
This lens is well balanced on my Nex cameras, and produces sharp as a tack results.
-
However, stepping back, and you can still get great results for other things you want to shoot as well

Reviews around quality (4.87 of 5)
-
Great quality, beautiful bokeh, quick AF and the vibration reduction works pretty awesome both for photos and for video
-
However, if you are inclined for a narrow lens for portraits or close-ups, this lens has some spectacular image quality.
-
Made in China with poor quality control it seems.
-
I needed a lens that is fast, not overly large, and of excellent quality.
-
The lens has a good quality for the price, with good build quality and lens attributes.

Reviews around shot (4.72 of 5)
-
The long lens combined with the wide-open aperture makes for some beautiful shots.
-
not a "professional" photographer).The OSS allows you to use a slower shutter speed--good for those quasi-static indoor, poor-lighting shots
-
This lens combined with my a6000 gets me way more usable shots compared to what my Nikon 5100 used to do.
-
The f/1.8 setting is great for beautiful close-up shots
-
I was able to get almost all shots sharp at 1/25, and 80% at 1/13.

The Bad: Price

Overall this is a very good lens, very charp and for a very reasonable price.

As a novice I have mostly use this for clicking portrait in Auto even then the pictures are mind blowing

This lens took my pictures from looking sharp but amateur to looking very professional and wall worthy

Takes great pictures for portraits but not the best in class for all others

Reviews around length (4.37 of 5)
-
50mm is an awkward focal length,
-
Also, since the a6300 is aps-c, the effective focal length in 35mm is ~75mm, which makes this lens of extremely limited use indoors
-
, it's fast, it's stabilized, it has good bokeh, and the focal length is very useful
-
The lens has been great for work in low light, and the focal length has been perfect for close-ups of architectural details and art objects
-
I've also used it occasionally for street photography, although its large focal length makes it cumbersome to use indoors

Reviews around lense (3.86 of 5)
-
All the 50mm prime lenses are compact and fits nicely on nex cameras
-
In many low light circumstances where my zoom lenses would be useless, I can shoot with this lens at 1/125 shutter and the photos are crisp and have no motion blur
-
I know it's possible to design more compact primes lenses, because Sigma is doing it for NEX E mount
-
To me this lens is what the Sony mirrorless system should be all about--compact lenses with great optics
-
It's a shame that we have such small and lightweight cameras with such bulky lenses

Reviews around focus (3.41 of 5)
-
I got a lot of missed focus shots with legacy lenses on the NEX
-
awesome prime lens. very quick focus and large aperture settings
-
The light doesn't work well with this lens and actually makes focus less reliable and slower.
-
The focus is great, the blurred background happens much easier than with the kit lens
-
In combination with using DMF focus on low contast/dark lighting, this lens is just beautiful.

*:Black | Style:Lens Only Product Description The built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization system provides a 4-stop (approx.) shutter speed advantage, making it significantly easier to achieve crisp, blur-free images and video. From the Manufacturer E 50mm F1.8 OSS Prime Lens This 50mm mid range telephoto lens offers a focal length that is perfect for portraiture and a range of other subjects, a bright F1.8 maximum aperture, Optical SteadyShot (OSS) image stabilization and impressive image quality, all in a surprisingly compact and lightweight package
-
Add responsive, quiet autofocus and aperture operation, and you have a lens that is ideally suited to shooting movies as well as stills
-
Technology Circular Aperture When changing your aperture to defocus the background, the light sources appear blurred
-
This ‘bokeh’ effect of the blurred background can be enhanced with circular aperture blades used in this lens
-
Conventional aperture blades have flat sides creating unappealing polygonal shaped defocussed points of light
-
α lenses overcome this problem through a unique design that keeps the aperture almost perfectly circular from its wide-open setting to when it is closed by 2 stops
-
Smoother, more natural defocusing can be obtained as a result
-
Lens-based optical image stabilization Gyro sensors built into the lens detect even the slightest movement, and the stabilization lens is precisely shifted to counteract any image blur that might occur
-
The use of precision, quiet linear motors and technology inherited from high-end Sony professional camcorders results in exceptionally quiet, effective image stabilization that contributes to high-quality movies as well as stills
-
Additional Features Internal focusing Only the middle groups of the optical system move to achieve focus, so the overall length of the lens does not change
-
Other important benefits include fast autofocusing and a short minimum focusing distance
-
Also, the filter thread at the front of the lens does not rotate, which is convenient if you’re using a polarizing filter
