This is a unique fixed focal length lens. Its main advantage is brightness of F1.4, which is basically the highest level that can be achieved with regular lenses. The brightness comes hand in hand with a number of characteristic features. It will shoot even in unfavourable light conditions. You will achieve very short exposure times, which are important especially for capturing dynamic action. And it will also precisely focus even in low-light situations, without requiring extra illumination.
With 52.5mm focal length (equiv. 35mm), it mimics the natural human eye field of view. The range of its use is thus very broad. It is an excellent all-round lens, which will help you to capture the ideal shot in all different circumstances. Its parameters make it perfect especially for portraits and fashion, artwork and still life photography. The high luminosity does not force you to use artificial light, so the lens is thus also great for shooting in natural light, which will help you to capture the unique atmosphere of the place in your picture.

Sony Corporation is a Japanese company founded in 1946. Its headquarters is located in Tokyo. Its beginnings were humble. The first product sold under the Sony brand was a transistor radio. It was those radios that played a pivotal role in the company's expansion in the 1960s and the world quickly began to associate Sony products with a reliably stellar price-performance ratio.
In the 1970s, Sony was severely affected by the global economic crisis. Many analysts considered the company effectively defunct and could see no future for it. However, they underestimated the famous Japanese perseverance and courage. The crisis was not a disaster for Sony; on the contrary, it served as a launching pad to even greater heights. The company recovered and soon changed the media landscape with the development of the CD and later the DVD. In the early 1990s, Sony achieved another major success with the introduction of the PlayStation gaming console. It is the gaming consoles that best represent the intersection of the three key areas in which the company operates today – electronics, video games, and the entertainment industry.
