Description

The Sony 50mm f1.2 G Master becomes the best quality standard lens for the e-mount to date, delivering the razor-sharp details and smooth rendering we’ve come to recognise from Sony’s premium lens series. It’s sharp across the frame, even wide-open at f1.2, performs well throughout its focusing range from near to far, and is well-featured with weather-sealing, a de-clickable aperture ring, rubber-tipped lens hood and focusing that’s smooth, fast and quiet. The only downside, other than an understandably high price, is noticeable focus breathing where the field of view tightens as you focus from far to close - an issue for some videographers, but unlikely to bother stills photographers. As for the price, it’s actually similar to Canon and Nikon’s 50 1.2’s and arguably superior overall. As for competition at the high-end, you may want to consider the five year old Sony Zeiss 50mm f1.4, or wait and see if Sigma releases a 50mm DG DN. But right now in terms of overall performance the Sony 50 1.2 G Master takes the crown as the best 50mm lens available in the e-mount.

Smooth process from start to finish. Alex was clear with communication, flexible with timings, and the lens was in perfect condition — clean, sharp, and well looked after. Pick-up and return were straightforward and professional. Highly recommend renting from him. Would definitely do so again.
