Key Features
  • Sony E-Mount Lens/Full-Frame Format
  • Aperture Range: f/1.4 to f/16
  • Three Aspherical Elements

A versatile normal-length lens, this lens mixes a fast, bright design with autofocus to present an ideal all-around optic.

A standard prime designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless digital cameras, this lens can also be used on APS-C models where it will provide a 75mm equivalent focal length.
Bright, fast f/1.4 maximum aperture excels in low-light conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field for working with selective focus techniques.
Three aspherical elements are incorporated in the optical design to control spherical aberrations for increased clarity and resolution from edge to edge.
An Ultra Multi-Coating has been applied to individual elements in order to reduce flare and ghosting for increased contrast and a neutral color balance.
The integrated autofocus motor works in conjunction with Sony cameras' focusing systems for quick, accurate, and precise AF control. Manual focus override is also available for refining your focus position.
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.

Rokinon 50mm f/1.4 AF Reviews

Beautiful look

By Thomas
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2021-11-24

This older version of the lens is definitely showing it's age in the electronics area. But I gave 5 stars because it was on sale, and for the $ it's a beautiful lens that is very fast. The autofocus is probably the main issue. Compared to more modern designs, it's very noisy, and not super fast. So sports would be out. I do mostly live concert shooting, and some interview work, and even with live mics, it doesn't seem loud enough to cause me audio issues. I use all external mics, so if you use the camera mic it would probably cause some issues. The look, clarity and sharpness are all amazing. (For video at least - I cant comment on how pixel peeping photographers would find it.)

Great lens with firmware v33

By Eric

A good lens made better with firmware v33. Increases speed of AF significantly on A7III. Older AF motors are not silent but are not noisy for stills. Good colors, sharpness, and focus fall off.
