on your a65, with the focus peaking, it should be hell easier than on a traditional dslr.....

Added on July 13, 2012, 5:28 pmWhat lenses are you looking for, exactly? The buy/sale section should have some alpha lenses for sale. Alternatively, you can go to alphanatics forum. The buy/sale section there also quite active. I am assuming you are talking about 2nd hand lenses....

looking for the 35mm f1.8
new or 2nd hand aso can...
i been to garage for weeks but seem to b no luck

haha... same as me... in there for months... but no luck... new one around RM800 but Samyang 35mm F1.4 is very interesting too at RM1300, much lower than Sony version...

even Alphanatics also no luck...

BTW you can try to call Studio Zaloon for the price... that day at Zoo Negara Challenge the offer is at RM700++

@kysham...
yea it is a lil easier... but when i want to do street shoots is not leh...
or when my gf wanna use... better... that day my granny birthday i switch my Focus to MF for a while... hand over to my gf for group photo... she did not even notice it is on MF, out come the ppl out of focus... so prefer to have a AF copy...

Wahahaha.... good luck in finding this gem 2nd hand. not many people wants to sell it, unless jumping off.

Might as well get a new one. That is also if you can find a new stock.....

haha... just called Studio Zaloon, RM800 for the lens... they have stock...
damn it... lens or flash... which one 1st after i get my salary...

@kysham...
Samyang 35 F1.4 or Sony 35 F1.8... RM1400 vs RM800...
for your which one??? as you said we got peaking mode slightly easier to get the focus properly... but with AF is sweet...

I don't know. Had not tried it extensively. You have to try both to know which suits you better.....

duno uncle have samyang or not... have to go and try out
or any one have use both b4??? comments???

Well first of all... the Samyang 35mm is a full frame lens while the Sony is an APSC lens.. this alone makes a lot of difference..

hmmm...

samyang 35 1.4 versus sony 35 1.8
-----------------------------------------
+f 1/2stop ---------------- nil
MF ------------------------- AF
Solid build ----------------- normal build
slightly better bokeh ------common bokeh
better shaprness, color ---common shaprness, color
full frame ------------------ APS-C
600 more expensive ------800

conclusion, if you will frequent use this lens to shoot dynamic subject, then go sony 35 1.4. if shoot lot on static sibject, then go samyang 35 1.4. if money is not a concern, then go Zeiss 24f2 just my own opinion
