New speed and resolution in an F1.2 lens
This 50‑mm F1.2 G Master prime lens is a creator’s dream, with an F1.2 maximum aperture that not only allows shooting in a wider range of lighting conditions, but also provides an extraordinary combination of high resolution, luscious G Master bokeh, and blazing autofocus. It is also remarkably compact and lightweight—for new creative freedom.

G Master resolution without compromiseThe compact, lightweight FE 50 mm F1.2 GM is an ideal choice for dedicated creators. XA (extreme aspherical) elements and other advanced technologies combine to achieve extraordinary resolution and contrast from the image centre right out to the edges. Sony Nano AR Coating II subdues flare and ghosting, while a floating focus mechanism ensure optimum sharpness at any focusing distance. |
Smooth, refined G Master bokehXA elements plus painstaking spherical aberration control at the design and manufacturing stages contribute to gorgeous G Master bokeh that can really make portrait and other subjects stand out, especially with the shallow depth of field available at the lens’s maximum F1.2 aperture. An 11-blade circular aperture mechanism contributes to beautifully circular bokeh. |
Fast, precise, quiet AF and trackingFast, accurate focus is assured, even with extremely shallow 50‑mm F1.2 depth of field. Four XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors smoothly deliver high thrust to position the large, heavy focus groups for fast, accurate AF. Original Sony E-mount lens technology ensures that you get maximum performance from E-mount bodies—for both stills and movies. |

Professional mobility3.5 in (87 mm) in diameter, 4.38 in (108 mm) long, and weighing just 27.5 oz (778 g), the FE 50 mm F1.2 GM complements compact, high-performance E-mount bodies to create a system that gives serious shooters the mobility and handling. Three XA elements and four XD Linear Motors in a large-aperture lens that is surprisingly compact offer extraordinary creative potential. |
Professional control and reliabilityTwo focus hold buttons, a focus mode switch, a focus ring, an aperture ring with switchable click stops and other controls support smooth operation. The focus hold buttons can be assigned to other functions via a camera menu. Linear Response MF ensures that the focus ring responds linearly to manual focus control. Effective dust and moisture-resistance2 and a fluorine front element coating enhance reliability. |

Firstly, the build quality of this lens is outstanding. It feels robust yet manageable, fitting perfectly with my Sony camera. The weather-sealing is a significant advantage, allowing me to shoot in various conditions without worrying about the lens.
The image quality is where this lens truly shines. The F1.2 aperture creates a beautiful, creamy bokeh that makes portraits and close-ups look professional and eye-catching. The sharpness is remarkable, even at wide apertures, making it a fantastic choice for low-light photography.
Autofocus performance is another area where this lens excels. It's fast and accurate, ensuring that I never miss a moment. Whether I am capturing fast-moving subjects or subtle expressions in portrait work, the autofocus is reliably on point.
Lastly, the lens's versatility cannot be overstated. It's perfect for a wide range of photography styles, from portraits to landscapes. This has allowed me to explore my creativity without the need for multiple lenses.
In conclusion, the Sony FE 50mm F1.2 GM is a top-tier lens that offers professional-grade quality and versatility. It's an investment that I am delighted with and would highly recommend to any photographer looking to elevate their craft.
Contacted Amazon customer service, made me wait until they work on it. Now it says it's not eligible for a return while I don't have my money nor the lense. Great buy.

If you're just shooting rando shots here and there its nice to have, but I don't think you 'need' it making it an unnecessary luxury. If you're a professional however, this should 100% be in the bag, if not, just shoot all the time with it. Buy another A7iii or A7iv just to keep this lens on it. It's so damn good. It still shocks me just how good both photos and video look with this lens.
I use this lens in studio but also on location. The lens is pretty heavy but it’s not very long, so it doesn’t bother me much.
The times I have used it for 1.2 I’ve been in lowlight situations and it does deliver
