Product Gallery
Product Overview
Samyang AF 50mm F1.4 FE is a large-aperture normal prime lens for Sony E-mount. It covers the full-frame image circle. Introduced by Samyang in 2016, it has 9 elements in 8 groups.
Unfortunately, Samyang has opted to omit weather sealing for this lens, so owners should pay extra attention when shooting in incremental weathers.
A normal prime lens, the Samyang AF 50mm F1.4 FE has the potential to be one of the most used and ultimately versatile option in a photographer's bag. Usually the easiest to design and to QC, it is a great option for landscape and street photography. Its bright maximum aperture also helps night and portrait works.
