How does a prime lens work?

A prime lens is a fixed focal length lens that doesn’t let you zoom in or out. This focal length is the distance between the point of convergence in the lens to the sensor in your camera. Prime lenses have very wide or large apertures. Apertures measure the size of hole when the lens opens inside a camera.

Do all Sony lenses fit all Sony cameras?

E-mount lenses are designed for Sony’s range of mirrorless system cameras (Alpha 7 series, Alpha 6000 and 5000 series, and NEX series). A-mount lenses only work on Sony’s range of DSLRs. So not every Sony lens fits on every Sony camera.

What prime lens should I buy first?

These models aren’t quite as fast as more expensive lenses and you can’t achieve the same shallow depth of field with them. But they are much more affordable and are useful for learning photography. For that reason, an f/4 or f/5.6 is often the best first lens to buy.

Why do prime lenses look better?

Prime lenses are significantly sharper than zoom lenses. That is due to the fact that they don’t have extra glass inside that moves in order to zoom. As a result, you get better quality photographs due to less diffraction, which increases with higher number of lens elements inside as in the case of zoom lenses.
