About this lens

The Sony FE 50mm f/2.8 Macro is Sony's compact 1:1 macro prime for full-frame mirrorless. 50mm macro means short working distance - best for inanimate subjects (product, jewellery, documents, food) rather than insects. Also functions as a standard prime at longer focus distances.

  • A proper little treasure trove

    3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
