Piece of gold for APS-C E-Mount!
If you take photos with Sony's APS-C cameras and like to create portraits, you will hardly be able to avoid this lens. Image quality is excellent, build quality is very solid, and it even has image stabilization. You rarely get a real alternative from other manufacturers, especially since the price of the Sony is really cheap. I use the 50mm f1.8 OSS on a NEX, an A3000 and the A7. Even if it was not made for the 35mm image section, the lens can be used well on a 35mm camera of the A7 series. The image section corresponds to that of an APS-C camera, you only get a lower resolution than is possible on the camera (on the A7, for example, 10 Mpx instead of the possible 24 megapixels). A real recommendation to use APS-C lenses on 35mm is of course not supposed to be, there are better alternatives with the Zeiss 55mm f1.8 or the Zeiss Batis 85mm f1.8, but these are also in a completely different price range. But you don't need to be afraid either, because the advantages of a 35mm sensor (e.g. low noise) also work on the SEL50F18OSS. At APS-C, the lens is currently unbeatable and worth every cent!
