The lens takes 49mm filters and does not ship with a lens hood (nor does one appear to be available for this lens). It will be available for approximately $150.Sharpness For its price point, the new Sony 50mm ƒ/1.8 does fairly well wide open, but for maxi...
Bottom line While the lens is just slightly soft at ƒ/1.8, it's no more soft than its contemporaries from other manufacturers, and when stopped down to ƒ/2.8 it provides sharp images indeed. Chromatic aberration is very well-handled, though when used wide open there...

The Sony DT 50mm F1.8 SAM is a mid-telephoto prime lens for Sony A-Mount SLT/SLR cameras that have an APS-C image sensor. It offers the equivalent angle of view as a 75mm lens on a 35mm camera and features a wide f/1.8 maximum aperture which creates a...
Bottom line The Sony DT 50mm F1.8 SAM is a small and lightweight short portrait lens that won't break the bank. Sure, build quality isn't that great and it's a little hesitant and very noisy to focus, but overall this 50mm optic reliably delivers excellent result...

Sony Alpha lenses can be connected to Sony NEX cameras using the Sony LA-EA1 adapter. Unlike e.g. a Leica M to Sony NEX adapter the LA-EA1 is smarter - it provides full camera control over the aperture mechanism with all Alpha lenses as well as AF wit...
Bottom line Optically speaking, the Sony 50mm f/1.8 DT ( SAL-50F18 ) is a good performer on the Sony NEX. The lens is sharp even at f/1.8 and it reaches more than very good results across the image frame around f/5.6. Lateral CAs are absolutely negligible which a...

The Sony 50mm f/1.8 DT is one of a series of recently released budget primes for the Sony Alpha system. As a designated DT ("Digital Technology") lens it is compatible to APS-C DSLRs only. Just like most recent DT lenses it features the new SAM ("Smoo...
Bottom line The Sony 50mm f/1.8 DT ( SAL-50F18 ) is pretty much a no-brainer for Sony APS-C DSLR users. The lens is very sharp even at f/1.8 and the resolution is about as good as it gets around f/5.6. Lateral CAs are absolutely negligible which adds to the outst...

A very useful lens that performs well and carries a rock-bottom price tag. If I were a Sony user then this lens would simply have to be in my camera bag.
