*Correction* You can use most APS-C lenses with full frame cameras. However, on your full frame camera you have to adjust settings to allow you to use it and you will still be limited by that 1.5x crop factor. A lot of times the quality is affected as well!
You can totally use crop sensor lenses on the full frame. You put the camera (Alpha series) into APS-C mode. It's not ideal. But they will work. It defeats the benefits of having a full frame. But I also have this lens and absolutely love it. It totally blows out backgrounds with beautiful Bokeh.
@2121VISION I just bought the A7ii and got the 50FE for $169 on black friday, I couldn't turn it down. I'm so happy I did cause it takes damn fine pictures.
The FE 1.8/50mm is designed quality over speed. Th AF is ok, but not for action. The quality is outstanding. To get a faster AF with the same quality you have to buy the Zeiss 55/1.8 which costs 500 Euro used, 799 Euro new. Or you look for a Sigma, Tamron, you name it …
I’m a new beginner & I wanted to know if the lens would work with my Sony NEX 7? Because I want a better lens than my Sony 18-55 kit lens also I wanted to know if you think that the Sony 28-70mm lens is better? I also heard that the Sony FE 35mm f/1.8 was a good lens to buy but it cost over $400
Both the OSS & the FE are going to be about 75mm cropped on a APS-C (crop censor camera). But if you put a 50mm on a full frame camera, FE or OSS then you will get a 50mm result with either lens. But keep in mind in most cases OSS lenses only work on crop censor cameras. So if you took the sony 50mm f/1.8 OSS, it would not work on a Sony full frame because it is a crop censor lens. I hope that helped!
@@2121VISION It will work on a full frame body, you just get an image circle that doesn't cover the whole sensor. However if you enable APSC mode the camera will crop in an give you the same result you'd get on a crop sensor. However you'll not use the full resolution of the FF sensor, which doesn't necessarily need a problem if you don't need the whole resolution.

Both lenses are definitely great options!

Thank you 😄 makes more sense now
I’m glad it helped!

Hi bro, i have a A6000 ,can i use FE mount lenses on it without any E-mount to FE mount converter adapter?
@@Hellospace321 Yes you can! You do not need any adapter 👍🏽
@@2121VISION awesome, thanks for the reply
Thanks, now my only ordeal is Sigma 30mm or the Sony 50mm for my a6100
Great video!
Which lens are you using on the camera your recording this video on ????
Did the oss have 75mm actual focal length? Or it just the FE one?

@@2121VISION PS: If you do video get yourself a gimbal, so much better than IBIS or OSS.
