Weighing less than 186g, the new lightweight fixed focal length FE 50mm f/1.8 (SEL50F18F) delivers an excellent blend of high performance and compactness, making it the ideal choice for amateur photographers and videographers who want the benefits of a wide aperture lens. The lens features a new optical design with an aspherical element that compensates for all types of aberration and delivers beautiful, clear images. In addition, the round aperture with a maximum aperture of f/1.8 creates beautiful bokeh effects that emphasise the subject against the blurred background. The robust metal housing ensures a longer service life for the new fixed focal length.
