Is the sony e 35mm f 1 8 oss worth it?

Yes, I think it's worth it if you shoot an APS-C Sony and want a fast, light standard prime. On APS-C it frames like 52mm on full frame, which suits people, food and everyday walking-around shots. The f/1.8 aperture helps in low light, and the stabilisation is a useful bonus.

It's a native fit for APS-C bodies like the Sony a6400 and Sony a6700. On a full-frame body like the Sony a7 III, it only works in APS-C crop mode, so you give up resolution. That's a poor trade if you bought full frame for it.

If you want a more classic portrait look, the Sony E 50mm f/1.8 OSS is worth a look. For how to use a lens like this on people, see the portraits guide.
