Hi Albert! Thanks for clarify this. I nvr tried any samyang lense before and this is first time I play with LIveview so dont know how it should work yet. Btw albert you have many experience with other lenses. In your opinion do you think there is any manual lens worth getting compare to the CZ24mm f1.8? If lets say manual focusing is not a problem. Budget about same with CZ. In term of sharpness and rendering quality while wide open. I actually have been looking for Voigtlander 35mm f1.2, but it is more expensive than autofocus CZ, but is there really difference in picture quality. There is no way i can test this lens. Assume comparing both lens at F1.8 (instead of 1.2) Voigtlander 35mm f1.4 is much compact but looking at the review the lens is not very sharp ... will it justify to get a manual lens more expensive than CZ 24mm? It is actually quite fun playing manual focusing on NEX, since I find nex tend to miss focus a lot more often compare to Alpha especially in low light.

Studio Zaloon has the Voightlander Nokton 50mm F1.1 (can't remember price), the Voightlander 40mm F1.4 (RM14xx), Voightlander 35mm F1.4 (RM2xxx) and Voightlander 35mm F1.2 (can't remember price.) I'd say they are pretty worth it! I got some pictures with the 1.1.

Both are pretty darn sharp wide open! In fact, when I initially did an Unsharp Mask of 90% 0.3 pixels 3 threshold on the full-size image and shrunk it to its current size, it looked too crispy and oversharpened. So I just did a plain resize.

hi jimmy, thanks for your feedback... i will try that out tonight...really interesting camera to use..
by the way, this lens really incredibly sharp... do get one 

Bro, mind if i ask where and how much u got the SEL50f18 ?

If I not mistake, the curve Sony centre have to stock, just arrived on last Saturday, can give a call to them for enquiry.

Street price should be around RM900

Oh!! didnt know Studio Zaloon actually selling these lens.. Thought uncle chin selling sony lens only

So you are saying the Voightlander may even have better image quality than the nex CZ or 50mm F1.8? I'll visit Zaloon and have a test myself before deciding if it is worth to sacrifice the autofocus/stabiliser.

I am from jb

Hehe...just grab used 55210 lens, I own it

How much you bought it ???
post some picture here that shoot by 55210 lens 

No I am not, because I have not compared it to the CZ E 24mm F1.8 or the Sony E 50mm F1.8. I would say it has surprisingly good quality wide open!

newbies in nex..what is the mount for the Voigtlander you try in zaloon? and the mount expensive?
