I think there's one guy selling in garage sale - but it's from a year back so no idea.

It's a great, great lens - if you don't mind the slight unsharpness and slight CA wide open. If you do mind, get the Touit,  but you'll lose OSS and a whole lot of extra cash.

Also, MAKE SURE you test any copy you get, used or EVEN new. The SEL35 is well known to have decentering issues - uneven sharpness at the corners (e.g. lower left unsharp when other corners are).

Google how to test decentering - a brick wall or a wall of text is useful to test with.

Thanks for the info, Eiraku.

Zeiss Touit should be 3k around there.  Available new from our friendly Uncle Chin at Zaloon Pudu or if second hand right here in garage sale - Silverfire is selling his A6k + 32mm Touit. Try asking him.

Just keep in mind, the Touit has much rougher bokeh compared to the SEL35 - like most other sharp lenses. Plus the AF is slightly slower. Also, it may be prone to AF issues (back/front focus) if you get a bad copy.

Today's random pic:

And yeah... I prolly should've f8'ed. Not bad at 1.8, but could've been better.

Wow! 3K. Definitely over my budget. I think will get the SEL35 first and nice pic!. smile.gif
