Is the yongnuo yn50mm f 1 8 da dsm worth it?

Yes, if you shoot Sony E or Fujifilm X on APS-C. It's a sharp, fast, autofocusing 50mm f/1.8 that frames like a 75mm lens, which suits portraits and people. My portraits guide calls the 50mm f/1.8 the cheapest great lens in photography, and this one fits well on bodies like the Sony a6400 or the Fujifilm X-T30.

It isn't stabilised, so it leans on good light or a faster shutter speed in dim rooms. If you have a full-frame body, look at the separate DF version instead, since this one is made for APS-C. For a first prime, the lenses guide explains why a fast standard prime is worth having early on.
