Quote:Well, the Sigma Macro 50mm F2.8 EX DG sells at Amazon's for 455€... A Pentax 50MMF/2,8 Macro, at the same store, sells for 365€, but the nominal price is 499€... 
The Sigma macro has 10 elements, which also appear to be bigger (it weighs therefore about 100 grams more).

 

If Canon can make the more complex 10-18mm for less than half, Sony should be able to make this macro (and make a profit) for less than $600 too. But with a 50mm f1.8 costing $300, I guess everything looks reasonably priced Wink
