Thank you all I can say it is a GREAT lens !

One more for you CTM:


Straight from camera custom setup of jpg.

BTW: I realy like JPG-s from Sony . I NEVER was using jpg when I was shooting Nikon. But now I only shoot with jpg ! Maybe becouse WB is much better then D60 and I don't have to set it every time in LightRoom.

I use to only shoot Raw with Canon, then went to Nikon and love JPEG. hahahaha..... Kind of opposite! Nice colours! WHich sony did you get>?

Cheapest DSLR in Poland... Alpha a200

But I'm realy impressed with it.
I got good deal on my Nikon d60 so it was no brainer.

That's the problem in small countries like mine. Sony is cheap becouse it's popular and you can get any lens you want for good price you can't say it about Nikon or Canon.

Now I think I skip cheap lenses and I will save money for something like Carl Zeiss, maybe 24-70.

I think I rather have great lens then "fine" 2-3 lenses.

I wanted to get Sony 50mm 1.4 but to get great results you got to use it on F/2 F/2.8 now I got 58mm F/2 Helios and I don't see point of having same focal lenght lens. I need 50mm for Jazz clubs, concerts and I always focus manual on those lenses.

And why 24-70? Great lens, if I would like to earn some money from photography like events I need good standard lens 50mm will do fine but I rather have zoom then lose moment becouse I was to far.

As tele I would go with Carl Zeiss 135mm f/1.8 focal lenght is fine for most event shoots and it's fast lens.

But for now it's "dream" team.
