False reporting is never a good look.

Is this guy a troll?

Probably either somebody who desires attention through provocation, or somebody looking to justify why he resisted buying a SEL16F28, or both.

Again, these forums... *sigh*

such topic would create much attention which may offend many owners of this lens however it's not really my intention.

I used to own a SEL16F28 back when I had my NEX-5N, mounted for a couple of times and never used again because it's a waste on my 5N. This lens is really underperforming on the APS-C powerhorse that Sony invented in NEX. I still remember reading a review of lens and that particular site gave this 1.5/2 out 5 in optics.

Yes we all had shot many amazing shots with the SEL16F28, but it doesn't mean it's a qualifying lens to be honest. many of us here can even shoot amazing shots with our cheap cameras or iphones.

Good to see though Sony is getting back on tracks with some awesome lens such as the old 50F1.8, the new 35F1.8.
