The Sony FE 50mm F1.8 is a compact full-frame prime for E-mount cameras. Its F1.8 aperture and 7-blade circular diaphragm give shallow depth of field and soft background blur, and the double-gauss design with an aspherical element keeps distortion and field curvature in check. It is the light, low-cost way into a fast 50mm on Sony full-frame, but it is a basic lens: a DC motor rather than linear motors, no optical stabilization, and no weather sealing. Reviewers call the optics good for the money while noting slow, audible autofocus and softness wide open at the edges.
