Description

The Sony FE 50mm f/2.5 G lens is a compact and versatile prime lens designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras. Its classic 50mm focal length makes it suitable for a wide range of photography styles, from portraiture and street photography to landscapes. As part of the G Lens series, this lens is built with high-quality optics to ensure sharp, clear images with minimal distortion.

The lens incorporates two aspherical elements, which help to reduce spherical aberrations and distortions, ensuring even sharpness across the entire frame. Additionally, one extra-low dispersion (ED) glass element minimizes chromatic aberrations and color fringing, providing superior clarity and color accuracy. The rounded 7-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh effect, making this lens ideal for selective focus techniques.

Autofocus performance is driven by two linear motors, which deliver fast, precise, and quiet focusing. This makes the lens an excellent choice for both stills and video applications, especially in situations where silent autofocus is crucial. The lens also features an internal focusing design, allowing for faster, more responsive focus adjustments while maintaining a compact size.

For those who prefer manual focus, the lens offers a Linear Response manual focus control, which provides smooth and natural handling. It also includes an AF/MF switch and customizable focus hold buttons for intuitive control. The lens has an impressive minimum focusing distance of 12.2 inches in manual focus mode, allowing you to capture close-up subjects with a maximum magnification of 0.21x.

With its compact size (1.8 inches long and 6.2 oz) and durable, weather-sealed construction, the FE 50mm f/2.5 G is a great choice for both full-frame and APS-C cameras, making it an ideal everyday lens for a variety of shooting situations.
