50.5 Professional Score
55mmf/1.4Canon EF-M
Why we recommend this

With a fast f/1.4 aperture and a 14-blade diaphragm, this 55mm lens provides an 85mm equivalent portrait field of view on Sony APS-C cameras, producing notably smooth bokeh. Its compact 272g all-metal build and manual focus with a de-clicked aperture ring give precise, tactile control at an accessible price. Best suited for portrait photographers on Sony E-mount who prioritize shallow depth of field and deliberate manual focusing over autofocus speed.
