... rather nice. 

Pretty good MTFs ... unsurprisingly.

Other than price (which is something to consider) do you notice any advantages over the olympus 60 macro ?

The center is sharper for instance. But it's hard to tell ... this is the Sony section here ...

I am selling my M.Zuiko 60mm f/2.8 Macro. Anyone interested?

Completely missed that this was being tested on Sony Nex. Sammy why do you dislike the the 60f2.8 macro ?

The M.Zuiko Macro is a very fine lens but I shoot macro not often enough to justify the investment. If I decide that I still need a 60mm prime the much cheaper Sigma would serve me better in value for money terms.

It 'rattles' though :-) just like the 19 & 30.

The lab test will be posted next week. Some sample images will follow later.

Generally a cool little lens IMHO.

I hope you'll get a change to test the m4/3 version. I think a direct comparison would be very interesting!
