ownership: | I own this lens |
compared to: | Sony FE 35/2.8 Sony Nex 50/1.8 Sony Nex Carl Zeiss 24/1.8 Leica M 50/2 |
price paid: | 1100 USD new |
positive: | Superb sharpness & contrast. Great colours too. Excellent build, yet relatively light. Quiet and quick focus action. |
negative: | Filter size: Outer rim must not be "oversize" otherwise the hood will not go on. Some B&W filters are a little bigger and have this issue. Just test with hood before buying. |
comment: | Great companion to the 35/2.8. Highly recommended. |
