7Artisans AF 25mm F1.8 Obiettivo Sony E APS-C

Kit lenses often leave Sony APS-C shooters wanting more light, sharpness, and control. The 7Artisans AF 25mm F1.8 solves that with a bright f/1.8 aperture, fast STM autofocus, and a compact all-metal build. Its 25mm focal length (37.5mm full-frame equivalent) gives a natural perspective for street, travel, portraits, and everyday scenes, while the 11-blade rounded diaphragm renders smooth, creamy bokeh. Weighing just 150g, it disappears in your bag until the moment calls for it.

This lens suits Sony E-mount APS-C mirrorless users who want a lightweight prime that excels in low light and offers creative depth-of-field control.

Tips

For flattering portraits at f/1.8, focus on the nearest eye and let the 11-blade diaphragm melt the background. When shooting video, rely on the near-silent STM motor to avoid focus noise. A 52mm UV or polarizing filter is a smart, inexpensive safeguard for the front element.
