E 50mm f/1.8 OSS Lens (Black)
Portrait-length lens
The black E 50mm f/1.8 OSS Lens from Sony is designed to offer a portrait-length 75mm equivalent focal length for your APS-C E-mount camera. Featuring a fast maximum aperture of f/1.8, it is well-suited to working with shallow depth of field techniques and difficult lighting situations. This is benefitted by a seven-blade circular diaphragm that works to produce smooth out of focus 'bokeh' areas.
The lens also features Optical SteadyShot image stablisation to help minimise the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld images. This is paricularly useful when working with slower shutter speeds, and can be combined with select camera's sensor-shift type image stablisation for even more effective control over camera shake. Finally, the lens uses an internal focus mechanism for fast autofocusing, and offers a minimum focusing distance of 40 cm.
