Sony 50mm f/1.4 Overview

Chosen for its normal perspective and fast f/1.4 aperture, the 50mm f/1.4 Lens from Sony is a high-performing full-frame A-mount option that will work in a variety of shooting situations. The fast maximum aperture helps produce stunning images with shallow depth of field as well as more easily work in low-light conditions. Also, the lens has a seven-blade circular diaphragm that will help improve the bokeh. Additionally, it has a minimum focus distance of 1.5'.

Optimized for full-frame cameras, this normal-length 50mm prime can also be used on APS-C cameras, where it will provide an equivalent focal length of 75mm.
A fast maximum aperture of f/1.4 allows users to work in less-than-ideal lighting conditions and create images with a shallow depth of field.
This lens offers a minimum focus distance of 1.5'.
Rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques.

Hi Manuel, this lens will work with Sony SLT-A65 with some restrictions. (1) ADI Flash metering is available in combination with HVL-F58AM, F42AM, F56AM, F36AM, KONICA MINOLTA 5600HS(D), 3600HS(D) and 2500(D). (2) When you record movies with autofocus, the operating noise of the lens may be recorded. (3) [Lens Comp] (Lens Compensation) function is available with the camera system software Ver1.06 or later.

question

Is this compatible with the a6300?
Asked by: Aslak K.
Not directly, no. The Sony 50mm f/1.4 Alpha A-Mount Standard Prime Lens uses the Sony A-mount/Minolta MAXXUM lens mount, while the Sony Alpha a6300 Mirrorless Digital Camera uses the smaller Sony E-mount lens mount. As such, you would need an adapter, such as the Sony A-Mount to E-Mount Lens Adapter (Black), B&H # SOLAEA3, to use the Sony 50mm f/1.4 Alpha A-Mount Standard Prime Lens on the Sony Alpha a6300 Mirrorless Digital Camera.

question

is this lens compatible with sony alpha 3500?
Asked by: Anonymous
This is a little hard to answer as I can't seem to find a Sony Alpha 3500. I am assuming this question is about the Sony Alpha a3000. The a3000 is an E-mount lens with an APS-C sized sensor. It can use A-mount lenses with an adapter; either the LA-EA3 or the LA-EA4. However, since this is an E-mount camera with an APS-C sized sensor your best bet is the 50-f1.8 E-mount lens. This lens is small, fast focusing and offers excellent image quality.
