Sony has introduced a new full-frame lens for their E-mount camera system: the FE 50mm F2.8 Macro lens. Macro photography has been described as extreme close-up photography. Ideal for everyday photography, this 50mm macro lens features an f/2.8 maximum aperture that offers outstanding image quality and bokeh, while its 1:1 macro capability allows the photographer to get sharp close-up shots of their subject. Additionally, its comprehensive range of controls including focus-mode switch, focus-range limiter and focus-hold button ensure an effortless shooting experience for a wide range of users.
Aspherical Lens Design
The field curvature is carefully corrected by aspherical lens design which dramatically reduces spherical aberration while also reducing lens size and weight. Specially shaped ‘aspherical' elements near the diaphragm restore alignment of light rays at the image plane, maintaining high sharpness and contrast even at maximum aperture and can also be used at other points in the optical path to reduce distortion.
7-Blade Circular Aperture
When changing your aperture to defocus the background, the background light sources appear blurred. While conventional aperture blades have flat sides creating unappealing polygonal shaped defocussed points of light, this ‘bokeh' effect of the blurred background can be enhanced with circular aperture blades used in this lens.
Small and Powerful
The lens offers a 0.16m minimum focusing distance and a wider field of view for capturing more background, compared to longer focal-length macro lenses. This allows you to get right up in the action and get that close detailed shot without losing all of your background.
