Samyang AF 50mm F1.4 II Lens - Sony E-mount

The Samyang AF 50mm F1.4 II is a compact and lightweight autofocus, full frame, fast aperture, standard lens for Sony mirrorless cameras. The autofocus operates quietly and smoothly when shooting video. Samyang's Linear STM (Stepping Motor) works for both photographers and videographers with quieter and more accurate control of the focusing lens groups.

Excellent resolution
The AF 50mm F1.4 FE II lens delivers a 45.7 degrees angle of view on full-frame and 31.1 degrees for APS-C sensors, as well as a bright maximum aperture of F1.4. Optimum resolution is achieved through the advanced optical design, using 11 lens elements in 8 groups (including 2 ASP, 3 HR, and 1 ED). Combined with Sony's full-frame image sensor, this lens delivers superior sharpness and contrast in all areas of the image.

Beatiful bokeh
The AF 50mm F1.4 FE II uses a large-diameter 9-bladed aperture to provide smooth background blur. It effectively separates the subject from the background, using a shallow depth of field and adding drama to the scene. The 9 diaphragm blades create smooth and natural bokeh with light splitting.

Minimised focus breathing for video
The AF 50mm F1.4 FE II has minimised focus breathing, so there is almost no change in the angle of view when focusing and therefore less screen shake. This is effective when shooting movies with the subject moving forwards and backwards, or focusing from front to back.

Weather sealing
The usability of the AF 50mm F1.4 FE II lens has been developed and enhanced, taking into consideration not only the design but also the user's shooting environment. It has a micro-patterned rubber focus ring, so feels great to operate and weather-sealing also helps to protect the lens from light rain, snow and dust.
