60/2.8 goes well with my SEL3518 with OSS. 35 + 50 are too close together for me. 35 already has OSS, I can just crop. Also the 60 is available in black :p

£379.99RRP = US RRP of $379.99? If so that's cheap!

The cylindrical barrel look? Oh yeah. As opposed to all those triangle shaped lenses...

Who says we have souls?

Sexist much?

Pretty much anything humanity has ever done since we came into existence is a waste of Earth resources.

Beautiful. More news like this and lens gear news please.

@abortabort What single camera under $1000 can do all that in camera?

IS is just another tool that a photographer can use just like AF, EVFs, movie recording, PDAF, split mirror image aid, sensor improvements and so on. I don't see how Fujifilm putting IS in the...

People choose the Sony because it is a pancake and is compatible the wide angle and fish eye adaptors as well which is a bonus (It can turn into a 15/2.8 with the wide angle that will be about the...

Totally agree. It's a shame there is no IS on the x100s. To the OP, if you want fast IS primes in a similar small package, you should look at one of the Sony NEX cameras with their 35mm f/1.8 with...

Agreed. I think the reason why the 55-210 is so big is because it was released alongside the 50/1.8 (which is also quite big for what it is) and Sony was just lazy and did not give priority to...

Only if you're a gear head and like to have the latest thing.

@marike6 The UWA is not specifically designed for portraits, shallow DOF is not as important. Also like others said, you should be comparing the 32/1.2 to 45/1.8 which is half the price.

Like the sensor in the Nikon 1 system?

>Ba dum tssshhh

Looks like a fantastic lens... until I saw the price. Are they insane? The Nikon 1 system is a joke.

If money isn't really an issue then definitely get the SEL3518.

Why no built in EVF? The NEX-6 can manage to squeeze in a hi-res EVF in about the same body size. Good to see the tilting screen though.

It comes with a hood. And since when did Canon and Nikon any 50/1.8 lenses for mirrorless APS-C cameras?
