Well, I found a good amazon warehouse deal on the 55mm. One down. Maybe gray market for the 24mm. Returnable, of course. If you want to go really small APSC CMOS, better go in with a fat wallet because the a6000 is really the only game in town. Guess I will return the 16-70. What a nice lens. Sharp portraits at 70mm f5.6, but dreamy portraits at f4. Not all bad. F4 sharpens up nicely in post when you want it, but you shouldn't have to do that. Works better if you soften a sharp image. Too bad photozone hasn't reviewed the 55mm or the 24mm for the a6000, but there is pretty much universal acclaim for those two, so the resale looks good if it comes to that. And I can get the color/contrast which I absolutely have to have, now that I have used the 16-70mm.
