Re: Just picked up a Sony A6000

i like the 50mm macro. unfortunately, the f2.8 isn't well suited for flash work. it tends to show some light blobs in the center, especially when stopped down. this is probably due to the rear element being concave and reflecting the light (that has itself been reflected from the sensor). other than that it's a very fine lens. the original version doesn't have a focus hold button. the RS and Sony versions do. for flash work i suggest the f3.5. it goes only down to 1:2 and the bokeh isn't great. but its very sharp from wide open.
