Truly sharp!!!
All I can say is that this lens is very,very, sharp. True Zeiss colors and lens size is adequate for a7 series FF cameras. Bokeh is very good and subject will pop. Autofocus is fast and I am really happy with this lens.

Love this lens
I wanted a normal lens for my Sony a7iii and this one had such high reviews that I took a chance on it. Im glad I did. Its tack sharp and gives a nice balanced setup for everyday use. You wont regret buying this lens.

Beyond my expectations
I bought this lense after reading many positive reviews. Now I can say it is beyond my expectations. This lense is very sharp. It's light and compact, well baclanced when put on my Sony A7R2. Absolutely a nice lense.

Love it! Super sharp!
At first it seems like the price is a bit too high for 55mm 1.8 but this lens is amazing and worth it. Well built, super sharp, best lens I've owned so far. Have been getting amazing results with this lens. Love it.

Compact, sharp as a tack
Pretty great lens here. I actually prefer the 50mm Zeiss 1.4 but it is quite a bit larger. I use primarily for video and the 50mm looks more cinematic to me. Size, price and quality though, you can't beat the 55.

Great Lens
Extremely sharp corner to corner. Competitive with my D P 2 Merrill which I consider to be one of the best of all time. I tend to shoot above 125sec to avoid shutter vibration . Great lens at a reasonable price.

the reputation is deserved..
This lens has a great reputation. My experience reinforces that reputation. It is very sharp...which is what I was looking for. It is also very light and fits my Alpha r11perfectly for all around daily use..

Agree with This is the best
Used in Indoor and Outdoor Pro Shoots. Flash and No Flash. I have only had it about 2 months. I have never shot with a better lens and I have a good size Zeiss inventory. Studio has lots of Canon and Hikon.

great lens
I bought this lens to use with my Sony A7Rii and found it a great combination. I only have one lens to use with this camera so far. It is sharp enough to crop the photo when I could have used a longer lens.

Sharp and And well built
I do not pretend to understand lenses on a technical level. I look for quality, reliability, sharpness and weight. All this data exists in this lens, it is super sharp, well built, fast and easy focus.

Terrific lens
This is a surprisingly great lens. I essentially use only Canon L glass and am thrilled with the IQ from this little lens. Size/weight matches the A7r quite well; autofocus is fast and accurate.

Tiny but potent
Good things sometimes come in small packages. This lens is small and lightweight but that doesn't compromise the image quality which is stunning. Looking forward to taking it out on the street.

Great Prime Lens!
This lens is really sharp and gives you the great shallow depth of field shots you'd expect from the numbers. The autofocus is fast and the video looks great when attached to my A7 body.

Heaven forbid I lose it, would definitely buy it again.
Use this lens on both my 7R2 and 6000. It is the sharpest lens (50mm range) I have used, on the 7R2 it allows for cropping without noticeable loss off detail. Did a 20x30 print amazing.

Great Lightweight Lens - Super Sharp Video
I love this lens and find it great for still photos when you need detail and Bokeh. This lens is also absolutely incredible for video and is a nice lightweight lens for use on a Gimbal.

Razor sharp
I don't use this lens as often as I should. It's by far the sharpest lens I own - I have the 16-35 GM 2.8, and the 70-200 f/4 by sony. Yes it's prime, but this little lens is a beast.

24-70mm is not a substitute!
I love my 24-70mm Sony lens! I wondered if I really needed the 55mm but have noticed since I've been shooting it that it really helps in low light. If you can swing it, GET BOTH!

Dude this thiing is SHARP
This thing is super sharp even at 1.8. Focuses fast and good on my a7r2. Super nice bokeh. Great for portraits. Not so great for macros with the longer minimum focus distance.

Love the lens! A must have, for me anyway!
My first lens for A7Rii and wow, happy as can be with my choice. The Batis will be next! This lens can shoot in any lighting condition. Dark lighting is my new found interest.

Best in class
I have compared the lens with many others at the same focal length and it always stands out as the best by far. Perfect optics, no distorsion, very light. It is a joy to use

A great lens!
I bought this lens along with a Sony A7R. What a great pair! Incredibly sharp and fast focus. A great all around lens. A lot better than the Canon that I was shooting with.

Money well spent!
Love this lens, the best lens so far made by Sony-Zeiss. I bought this lens for my A7. IMHO this is better than the 24mm 1.8 that I'm using for my NEX 7. A must for the A7.
