The Sony FE 55mm f/1.8 ZA is a light-sensitive prime lens for Sony E-mount full-frame mirrorless cameras. You can also photograph in poor light situations with this lens, thanks to the large maximum aperture of f/1.8. The 9-blade, circle-shaped aperture creates a nice soft background so your subject stands out. The multiple-layer coatings and aspheric elements prevent distortion, chromatic aberrations, and lens flares. This ensures optimal performance and a high image quality. The lens has seals for moisture and dust, so you can to take it with you while you travel.

Nice lens with minimum F1.8 aperture. Nice autofocus, suitable also for the video recording. Good for portraits. Price is a bit high for 1.8, though.
