I love fixed focal length lenses, and this lens with Ziess optics is a good medium.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Get a reliable portrait lens for your NEX camera with this Sony 50mm lens. It has a fast aperture of f/1.8 for solid performance under low-light conditions, and it can get in close to your subject — up to 1.5 feet. Add a 49mm filter to your Sony 50mm lens for lens protection and polarization effects.

It's not a G Master or Ziess, but it's a good lens for the money.

Either, depending on how your camera is set up.
Leave it in anyof the number of Auto Focus modes or set it to Manual.
Just look through the settings menu to see what your model has available.

Don't know much about your camera, but unless it uses some oddball style memory card, it should be fine.

I need to know if this lens is for the full frame a7ii? Meaning is this a full frame lens?

Yes, the "F" in the "FE" designation indicates that it's for "Full Frame" style.

what len is the best for Sony a5000 under $300? I mainly use it for taking pic and video of my baby. Thx!

Being that it's a compatible E Mount, it will fit and work with the A5000, but it is a full frame sensor type lens as opposed to a regular E Mount asp-c crop sensor (smaller), that the 5000 and 6000 series cameras.
Tech specs aside, I don't know about using a fixed focal length lens for shooting video, but if you're shooting a baby that doesn't move around too quick like a toddler you should be able to get some good shots with beautiful depth due to the F/1.8, but I know from experience that chasing toddlers is easier with a zoom type lens.
On the budget concious side, using the 16-50mm pancake kit type lense would be a better choice.
If budget would allow (a few hundred dollars more), stepping up to the 18-105mm F/4 would be a great choice. Not nearly as compact as either the 50mm F/1.8 or the 16-50mm, but it's an awesome all around lens with a broad focal range that people have also said it's good for video use. I bought one to use with my A6000 and loved it, and use on occasion on my recently purchased A7Rii.
