About the Sony FE 50mm f/1.8
Sony’s budget full-frame 50mm f/1.8 for the E mount (model SEL50F18F), announced in March 2016 with a metal mount. It also fits Sony’s APS-C E-mount cameras; the APS-C E 50mm f/1.8 OSS is a different lens and is excluded here. Check that autofocus works without grinding.
What affects the price
- Fungus (web-like threads), haze or separation inside the glass. Shine a flashlight through the lens to check.
- Oily or sticky aperture blades, and a smooth, even focus ring.
- Scratches on the front element and cleaning marks. Light dust is normal and barely affects price.
- Front and rear caps, the hood and the original box add a little; the mount matters most for who can use it.
