Sony NEX 50mm F1.8 OSS Camera Lens - SEL50F18/B

Product Details
Sony NEX 50mm F1.8 OSS Camera Lens, Model SEL50F18B
Features
Built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization
The built-in Optical SteadyShot image stabilization system provides a 4-stop
(approx.) shutter speed advantage, making it significantly easier to achieve
crisp, blur-free images and video
Large F1.8 aperture
The SEL50F18 has an innovative optical design to achieve clear, high-quality
images by effectively minimizing distortion and chromatic aberration. Moreover,
the large maximum aperture of this lens with its circular aperture design,
can produce beautiful, creamily defocused backgrounds
Smooth and quiet high-speed focusing
Lens operation is fast but at the same time smooth and quiet, minimizing noise
and image jitter when shooting movies. A linear motor used for focus drive
contributes to low-noise focus operation, while a stepping motor built into
the lens, technology inherited from Sony's professional camcorders, results
in smooth, quiet aperture actuation ideal for movie shooting
Compact and lightweight
The SEL50F18 is remarkably compact and lightweight for a large-aperture mid-range
telephoto lens (50mm focal length/75mm equivalent in 35mm format). It is convenient
to carry around for general photography, and particularly well suited to shooting
portraits. The elegant aluminum alloy exterior of this lens affords an appearance
that blends beautifully with the graceful design of E-mount bodies, and the
engraved focus ring offers sophisticated appearance as well as superior grip
and operating feel
Direct Manual Focus (DMF)
Direct Manual Focus (DMF) allows the user to go directly to manual focusing
after autofocus lock-on without having to switch modes. In cases where autofocus
has trouble locking onto the subject, or when the user wants to focus at a
specific point, DMF facilitates fast, easy fine focus adjustments. This can
be particularly useful for portraits in which depth of field can be extremely
shallow
