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...

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...

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...
  • 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...
