The SAL 1118 is fine lo. But the plastic feel abit turn off. Go straight for Tokina 1116 f2.8. The metal built damn nice. Sharp too!

QUOTE(vikingw2k @ May 30 2010, 08:50 PM) If you can live with kitlens, your siggy's gearlist wouldn't exist. It's just the matter of time before one upgrade. I've witnessed myself plenty of forumers here telling me stuff like, "hey, I just need a simple camera and kitlens and I won't need anything else". Well, give him a few months and you'll see new stuff popping up in their siggy. Perhaps self-denial is just a common thingy when a certain group of people just started.  as i stated i can live with a kitlens alone... IF i have the creativity that outweighs all gears. which at this moment in time, i havent. |

Finally it's available after 2 years of waiting. http://www.dpreview.com/news/1002/10020103...1116mmalpha.aspThe f2.8 is simply awesome for indoor events. My only whine on my ex Tokky 11-16mm f2.8 is the range. If only they could make the coverage longer.  |

I used to think like that but end up didn't utilize that lens much due to the short range though the aperture is very tempting. I would suggest you to give it a try first to make sure you really like the range before deciding.. How much is the price of that lens? |

vikingw2k : No idea. I used to be poisoned very badly by that lens on a Nikon D300. XD Now not yet play it on an alpha body so no urge to buy yet.

But I got 1 problem is .. like the Canon/Sony Carl Zeiss/Minolta 16-35 doesn't the F2.8 wasn't able to capture much sharper detail when comes to landscape shooting? Because most of the landscape photograph will choose higher F-stopping for capturing the detail. |
