No, I have not try it myself. Good to hear another good feedback from you. Many review I've read said it doesn't feel as big as it looks online.

Added on March 1, 2012, 1:45 pmYes, I agree. I was considering to get the 35mm F1.8 first, buy worry that this lens will become redundant if I would to get SAL1650. Maybe I should just get this and forget about the fast zoom.

Well the 35mm f1.8 SAM is not known for its fast AF speed. You might want to test both lenses out first on a DSLT to get the feel of it and see whether the lens suit your needs or not.

For today's pic spam.

Kurt Munger review of sony_nex_55_210mm

maybe get this, instead of tamron or sony 18200??

same place

For real? only US$350???

Bummer. Back to square one...

This is my first ILC, so I've never bought any lens before. Anyone can recommend any outlet which has a lot of Sony lenses on display which I can test? Sony concept store will be my best bet I guess.

Studo Zaloon will be a good place to test lenses!! even the 3rd party lenses and adapters!

Yeap.

So far, love his service, at least I don't have to deal with some attitude problem sellers =,=
