Sony fe 50mm f 2 5 g vs viltrox af 50mm f 2 air?

Both are 50mm autofocus primes for full-frame bodies, and neither has stabilisation. The main difference is aperture. The Viltrox AF 50mm f/2 Air opens to f/2, a little brighter than the Sony FE 50mm f/2.5 G at f/2.5. That helps in dim rooms and for a softer background.

If you shoot Sony E, the Viltrox is my pick for the extra light. The Sony is the first-party option if you want a lens from the camera maker. The Viltrox also fits Nikon Z and L-Mount bodies, which the Sony can't do. Check that your body supports third-party autofocus before you buy. More on that is on the lenses page.
