Why This Lens
The 50mm f/1.2 GM is Sony’s most advanced standard prime. The f/1.2 maximum aperture provides exceptional low-light performance, beautiful subject isolation with smooth natural bokeh, and fast shutter speeds in challenging light.
The 4 XD Linear Motors deliver fast, precise, and quiet autofocus suitable for both stills and video. The 11-blade circular aperture ensures smooth, round bokeh at any aperture setting.
The 3 XA elements effectively eliminate onion-ring bokeh and maintain sharpness across the frame, even wide open at f/1.2.
