ya..50 F1.8 is in my consideration....btw, those minolta..is it good and sharp enough?...got macro lens priced below 700?

SAL30F28 have macro feature i think..

no need to think. its indeed a macro lens

minolta is good n sharp.. just that may have some issues with flare and AF might be slower.

35-105 abit cropped on aps-c...??i dont get it...u mean not wide enuff izzit bro...???

what is the price for it?..full spec??

yup..35mm at APS-C body you may find it not to wide for group photo for example. but you can always move a bit to fit your frame.

the MFD of this lens also if i'm not mistaken was a bit far (1.5m i think), but the picture quality is very sharp. and the macro mode was very useful. add raynox, then you can go for macro outing already!

price you can always refer to first page...tat is what i love sony forum the most..host always provide street price for most of the sony DSLR product..

street price maybe cheaper. its been a while since i do a price police...

ya la bro...the mfd abit turn down but this lens is useful for potrait also...just love the bokeh @ 105mm...

once you get it, you wont regret..i tried few times (my friend punya!), bokeh and sharpness are very good. lucky i have another 'good' lens, if not i may find one.

hey guys, just wondering bout the new dslr NEX-3 and NEX-5, does it function like any other dslr? or are there disadvantages to its smaller size? want to venture into photography =D

Sillhoutte, you're venturing into expensive poisonous territory. Thread carefully. Nex is good.

it functions like one, but its still not a DSLR.

2 totally different feel.

dream BIG? i'm dreaming of 24F20Z
