Str33tBoY : sal16105 FTW  within the 16-->105 range best for me is the minolta24105 f/3.5-4.5(price range <=1.1k ). the sharpness is near or similar to the sal16105 (can some1 clarify this, i didnt compare it thoroughly) but the bokeh is better and it is 2/3rd stop advantage at farthest end. the best for me is the bokeh thou  the sal 16-105 not much of a bokeh lens, if doing potraiture of studio shoot is ok la.. stop by at Sony Center KLCC today, sorry for being abit slowpoke here but the pancake + FE adapter is WIDEEEEEE. the CZ1680 on the NEX is also nice  the a33 is small  cplow1 : thanks for the info =) DecDeviL : if i were u i'd keep the lens and fund for <rm500 for a new 50mm 1.8. erm post some taken from it ya, prefer at all focal range at wide open bokeh style

noprob: NIIICE! signither: I have Paypal.  It seems the SLR Magic 35mm F1.7 focuses to 30cm close. However, it does have field curvature, which means if you focus on a flat surface, the center is in focus while the corners are not, or the corners are in focus but the center is not: http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat...97&changemode=1Also... I have my reservations on this - I'm waiting to see the Samyang 35mm F1.4. We know very well how Samyang's new primes are and, it would work on my A900 as well! (And possibly, a future A55...) ahpingko: I like your new processing look. There's a certain mood in it. cplow1: Leos Trading of 1st floor next to the escalator in Ampang Park should have ready stock. Also, the 1st floor of Low Yat Plaza has a fair bit of Sony (Tarita, etc.)

signither: Er just to clarify to anyone reading this, as "reservations" can mean two different things;
"I have made a reservation on this SLR Magic" - I want to buy the lens, and have booked it.
"I have my reservations on this SLR Magic" - I have doubts about the lens. I did not book it. However I will wait and see how the Samyang performs.
Then again it's an easy decision for me - the Samyang does F1.4, and it works on my A900 too!
