The 55 1.8 is legit Matt. I shot with the Canon 50 1.2 for the last 10 + years and of course loved that lens. I"ve been shooting Canon + Sony (A7 iii) for the last 2 years and finally sold the Canon 50 1.2 just two months ago to get the 55 1.8 as I REALLY needed video AF to happen. All I can say is WOW. Totally impressed. Just as the Canon 50 created magic, so does this Zeiss 55, yet it's a different magic with that tiny hint of more compression.

The 55 1.8 is still one of the best lenses for Sony IMO (2nd only to that 24mm). I really think you should rent it out and do a vid on it to show people they don’t have to spend this mad money. However I am thinking of getting this 1.2, will going from 1.8 to 1.2 make my film making better? I think so 😂

I really wish Sony would do an updated 50/55mm budget option, similar to their 35mm 1.8 and 85mm 1.8. Something with less focus breathing, and up to date AF, plus a focus wheel with less (or hopefully zero) focus acceleration. My biggest gripe with the 55mm 1.8 being the end all mid range option is how far the closest focusing is, I never thought itd be a problem until using it in the real world, plus the focus acceleration makes manual focus difficult, and the focusing is just a bit slow to top it off.

The 55 1.8 is great as an alternative. BUT (as Matt say) :) it is 55 and 1.8, so for video shooters looking for a fast 50mm on a a budget I can recommend the Samyang/Rokinon 50 1.4 FE AF lens. It is very unreliable in terms of focus if you are shooting stills with the newer cameras, but for video the AF works. It is audible, the performance is not the best one but it is usable for sure, when it grabs focus it stays in focus. The optical quality is actually pretty good, it is seriously fast. Almost half a stop faster than the FE 50 1.4 Planar and dirty cheap. I bought mine for 300 euro in Europe on the second hand market. I love it.

Ive been loving the small and affordable Sony 40mm F2.5 this year, I was using the 55 f1.8 as my main lens but now prefer the 40mm. I enjoy the extra width in my frame now that im shooting all 4k and can always crop. Yes the Bokeh can leave something to be desired sometimes but F2.5 on a full frame is still very nice.

A person making money with their camera will have no problem spending the money for a top quality lens. For me the 50mm or 50mm range is perfect. I love my Sony/Zeiss 55mm 1.8 and I love my Minolta Rokkor 58mm 1.4 manual lens and my 55mm Takumar 1.4 lens. I have to Old Canon 58mm and 55mm f1.2 lenses but neither is good enough for my needs. So far the best is the Sony/Zeiss 55mm 1.8 and soon to be Sony 50mm 1.2 GM. I rock my Sony 100mm STF GM on my A1 and don't bat an eye on the weight issues. I is what it is. The 50mm will be a welcome addition to my Sony Camera Collection. I will be retiring my old vintage manual lenses.

Strange, I didn’t have that issue when I was filming a wedding and the couple was backlit 🤷‍♂️

I had the zeiss 55 1.8 loved it for the size and Iq but it wasn't the best IQ so i sold it. (wish I wouldn't have) Had the 50 Zeiss Milvus, IQ was very nice but way to heavy so I sold it. Had the Zeiss 50 1.4 loved it IQ wise but too heavy as well, sold it. i bought the 50 1.2 gm, love it but I to wish it weight was a bit less but it's not bad i would say. I use it all day and i'm still feeling ok after the whole day. Price, well i just paid it lol but the IQ is worth it to me. Great video Matt

I never tried Sony 50mm f1.2 but I used Canon RF 50mm f1.2 and images out of this lens is just amazing. I agree $2300 it is a lot of cash 💸 💰

50mm s pro is easily the best 50mm in the price range. Try it out one day for a big surprise.

'clinical and sterol' first time I have herd words like that describing the planar!? haha. At some point you have to ask how much bokeh is enough? at 1.4 is arguably to shallow for some tastes, it's about compromise. Personally I am biting at the bit for a re-engineered 85mm GM (that will no doubt be a 1.2 and have the same quick focusing of the newer gen of lenses that stared with the 135mm). Until then the 85mm 1.4 dn Art I feel is the best option and for a 50mm I would go with the 1.4 (planar..or a Art?) second hand it's literally half the price at about 90% what the GM can do. Spend the extra cash on good lights and colour collaboration. Just my two cents, Good video mate.

I have the Nikon 50mm 1.2 S, it's actually not as bad holding it for weddings that some people might think. The image quality is STELLAR, and practically no focus-breathing.
