With its bright F1.8 maximum aperture, the SAL50F18 is ideal for framing and isolating your subject - even if it's competing with a busy background.
Pair the lens with a Sony camera with SteadyShot INSIDE and you’ll enjoy smooth, blur-free results when shooting handheld, even zoomed in.
Instead of a standard polygon-shaped lens aperture, this lens features a 7-blade circular aperture for more natural, rounded defocusing, or bokeh.
Multiple lens elements crafted from high-performance optical glass help minimize distortion and aberrations, giving you crisp, sharp images.
Built into the lens, the Smooth Autofocus Motor (SAM) is significantly smoother and quieter than conventional camera-coupled autofocus drive systems.
