Review on πŸ“· Sony SEL35F18: High-Performance 35mm f/1.8 Prime Fixed Lens by Agung Budiyanto ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality is top notch, happy with everything.

I needed a universal fixed lens for the Sony NEX-6. Since on a 1.5 crop, 35 mm are roughly equivalent to 50 mm (52.5 to be exact), and 50 is universal, the choice fell on the Sony SEL35F18. It has a good aperture ratio, compact dimensions even with a hood (although the camera still moved from a pocket to a backpack). Of course, other manufacturers, such as Sigma, have similar models with even greater aperture, but they are noticeably larger and they do not have a stabilizer. The image quality is quite good, the sharpness is enough.

I bought it for 6400, everything suits me. Small, light, fast focusing, sharpness at more hidden aperture values ​​​​is amazing. On open, excellent bokeh. I bought it because I wanted something universal for landscapes, waist-length and full-length portraits, and for video.

With its pros. Luminous and clear. The difference with my previous one is twice the price, but the quality is not much different In the dark, it catches focus quite well. Its cons: Sometimes smears, but he's not in the class to fight

excellent staff for multi-pixel cameras - ideal for A6000, A6300 and Nex7

Some pros: Light. Normal picture for crop. It makes no sense to buy on a full frame, as the picture sharply loses quality. Noises are coming. And so a worthy copy for your money. With its cons. Not suitable for full frame.
