An ultra-bright standard lens for fast, accurate shooting by available light.

The Sony Alpha 50mm f/1.4 Lens provides superb clarity and visual accuracy, even when shooting at fully open aperture indoors, in low-light or twilight conditions. Mounted on your Alpha Digital SLR camera, this lens provides midrange telephoto 75mm focal length (35mm equivalent) and takes advantage of the in-camera Super SteadyShot image stabilization system to minimize blur from camera movement.

Key Features:

Superb Sharpness in Available Light
In conjunction with the Super SteadyShot image stabilization system of the Sony Alpha Digital SLR camera, this lens achieve pinpoint sharpness even working with hand-held camera by available light.

Bright f/1.4 Aperture
The ability to capture more light in dark environments gives you a superb lens for hand-held shooting without flash, to preserve the mood or in locations where flash is not permitted.

Circular Aperture
Conventional lenses close their apertures with blades that can create multi-sided shapes -- but the aperture blades of this superb wide-angle lens form a near circle at the wide openings you'll use for low-light shots, so spot-light sources have a pleasing circular defocused effect.

High-quality, all-glass filters at an affordable price

These lens filters are made from the finest optical glass, are ground and polished to the most practical thinness, and are heat-treated to avoid any distortion or focal shift. Each filter is subject to strict tests in order to ensure a flawless, even surface, which is essential to a quality filter and exceptional photographs.

Lens filters are one of the least expensive accessories you can use to make big changes in the way your pictures look. This particular filter kit is a combination of the three essential filters (UV, CPL & FLD) no photographer should be without.

Kit Includes:

UV (Ultraviolet) Filter
A UV filter is used to reduce ultraviolet rays and produce crisp, clear photographs. UV filters are commonly used to help protect the surface of the lens from scratches, smudges, dirt and other hazards.

CPL (Circular Polarizer) Filter
A polarizer is different than most filters in that it is composed of two pieces of glass, mounted independently inside a round frame so that one can be rotated relative to the other. As it is rotated, it increasingly cuts out glare and haze. Polarizers reduce glare from water, glass, or any non-metallic surface. You can also use a polarizer filter to darken blue skies.

FLD (Fluorescent Light Correction) Filter
An FLD filter provides the perfect solution for obtaining pleasing skin tones and correct color while shooting without a flash under fluorescent lighting. This filter gives true-to-life color rendition by removing the harsh yellow-green cast ordinarily resulting from fluorescent bulbs. When shooting under natural light, a fluorescent filter dramatically increases color saturation of subjects such as sunrises and sunsets.
