Sel50f18.
Cheap, sharp, bokehlicious.
What do you wish to accomplish that your current kit lens could give you? Bokeh? Sharpness? Contrast? Slow AF speed? range? Or what?
Without knowing what your kit lens is limiting you, there is problem with any of us to give you meaningful advises.
according to what TS wants, i would suggest the SEL50F18 50mm F1.8 prime lens as well. this is a pretty decent lens for basic portraiture, with a 35mm equivalent Field of View of 75mm.
it might not be extremely sharp, but it'll help TS to practice composition and the usage of a prime lens.
i previously also have dilemma choosing between SEL50F18 and SEL35F18.. in the end i went with the 35mm.
feedback: it slightly wider. can be use for other photography besides portraits which is good for low light condition. Cons: Lost on Bokeh..
i want good bokeh effect
Thanks guys.I guess 35mm F1.8 is better for the choice as i want good bokeh effect meanwhile can be used for other photography
I wanted a low apearture lens that can do things not only limited to 'background blur''
Im not very satisfied with current 16-50mm as i want something that can do a better bokeh effect
as for 50mm f1.8 might be one of my consideration since im just a student and 35mm might be pretty expensive
the "background blur" is lesser, but Bokeh is not lost. there is a difference between the two.
in fact, i prefer the 35mm's bokeh over the 50mm. but if you want the effect of a "shallower depth of field", you should use the 50mm.
