Best camera for the sony planar t fe 50mm f 1 4 za?

This lens is a full frame prime, so I'd pair it with a full frame body. Without a specific shooting style in mind, these are my picks from the list:

• Sony a7 III: a sensible all-rounder that makes the most of a 50mm f/1.4 for portraits and everyday shooting.
• Sony a7 IV: the same full frame approach in a later body, if you want the newest option in that line.
• Sony a7R V: the one to choose if you want the most detail from this lens's sharpness.

If you already own an APS-C Sony such as the Sony a6400, the lens still works. It frames like about 75mm there, which is a fine telephoto portrait focal length, but you won't get the wide view a 50mm gives on full frame.

For more on why a fast prime like this is worth carrying, see Primes or zooms.
