Rokinon’s 50mm F1.4 AF Full Frame for Sony E Mount

Today Rokinon announced a 50mm F1.4 AF for Sony Alpha cameras. Earlier this year, I had a good experience with a Rokinon Cine lens attached to an A7S… Designed specifically for Sony full frame E-mount cameras, this new high speed prime combines advanced optical technology with a fast, quiet and precise IF auto focus system.

Features

  • Internal Focusing
  • Removable lens Hood
  • Rokinon Ultra Multi-Coating
  • Non-Rotating 67mm Filter Mount
  • 9 Blade Diaphragm for Superb Bokeh
  • High Strength Aluminum Alloy Housing

A UMC antireflective coatings and three aspherical lens elements will limit chromatic and spherical aberrations for outstanding image clarity. Pricing wasn’t announced, with the press release but expect it to be hundreds less than a Sony-branded lens. The non AF version of this lens sells now for $399.00.

My daily shooter is Sony A1 with a vertical grip and various Sony lenses attached like the FE 20mm F1.8. Find more gear recommendations in our shop. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
