All photography content should be like this. Someone doing photography. Doesn't have to be street photography, but why is 90% of photography content on youtube just someone sitting at a desk talking as they fondle a $6000 camera?

I have watched so many videos about lenses and I love the way you explained everything! Thank you!

I got it for my A7IV and don’t regret it ! Yes it’s slightly slower AF but still for the normal street / landscape / portrait stuff it’s absolutely nice and will not let you down for the price point. Build quality also better than Samyang Af45 1.8 and not as much Color noise in low light 🎉

was going to buy a 50mm f1.4 but after getting the samples from the 1.8 I will definetly buy the 1.8 !

What nostalgia! I used to live in the area and took thousands of snaps there during the years! :)

Great review! Doesn’t appear to be much difference in pics but huge difference in price!

Amazing review, Mike! Def impressed by the quality!

[MrLovesslesso]

This is an amazing video!! But i must ask, what were the songs used?

[MrWebvasanth]

You've nailed the white balance. Great work.

[EbukaMordi]

Both lenses did greattt! I’m super impressed

[jesusrangelb.]

definitively it worth it in 2024 i got it and i take great images with a sony a7c

I’m definitely getting a boom mic that attaches to my hot shoe so I don’t have to worry about the sound when shooting video. If I buy that new attachment I just saw and minus that price from the $2000 lens I just save myself 1700 bucks for the same quality, great video

What a brilliant review. I'm in the process of upgrading my 50mm1.8 thinking of getting the Sony Zeiss 50mm 1.4 ZA but I'm not sure now if I should bother. Maybe I'll source a 35mm instead 🤔

[zzeed]

Which wrist strap and bottom mount is that?

[ColdCoffeePhotography]

Really good review of the nifty fifty, can I also ask where is the location from 11:20 please?

[baarsik]

The only thing I don't like about 50mm f/1.8 is chromatic aberration. If not for that, it would be a perfect 50mm lens

[elnino]

9/10 images quality with a just fraction of price and weight, just go for the 1.8

[samcashelmedia]

Hey just a heads up the RAWs in your bio are titled incorrectly. The 50 1.8 is titled 50 1.2 and vice versa

Great video, im here as i just bought the older a7iii with crap kit lens it came with as thats all Jessops had. I am really struggling to decide which two lens i should buy. I have changed my mind every day since Sunday! Your video is great and I’ve just subbed. I will see if you have any help in this matter? If not id love to get your thoughts someone like myself starting out with a Sony A
