It takes great pictures for the price. However the AF is relatively slow.

I dont have any other suggestions for a lens in this price range.

Slow auto focus, noisy motor, poor coatings, and MSRP at launch was $250 and very shortly dropped to $200. Not hot IMO

Got mine around this price last year (close to Christmas) but come with a $50 best buy gift card. So around $150 for this lens.

While this lens may not be worth it to people who own higher quality glass, I think this is still a great lens if you are just getting started or would like to experience primes on the cheap. People are complaining about noisy motor and poor coatings, but what do you expect for an entry level lens?

Go with the Sigma 56mm f1.4 when it goes on sale if you shoot with Sony crop sensor budget cams, you'll be much happier

IMO 16mm 2.8 is the crappiest Sony lens.

When will Sony release a 50 GM? Hopefully next year, seems like the sigma is the best for the money but none of these lenses have hot autofocus for sports
