#1
http://dc.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/...84628.html





Planar T * 50mm F1.4 ZA SSM

18-200mm F3.5-6.3 OSS E PZ

E 20mm F2.8

Hum. But only one lens of potential 'quality' ?
#3
I suppose E-mounters wait for the rumored Zeiss 16-80, and some better tele options. The 20mm pancake is probably OK though.
#4
not always is everything as it seems…….but i'm happy with the lenses i have for the sony…... but i'm not happy with the current cameras sony has for the lenses…...
#5
If the 20mm pancake could be used in the Meike underwater housing originally made for the 16/2.8, these are great news.



No, I don't wait for E-mount 16-80; just got the small 16-50 instead. When I can do with the size of 16-80 (whatever it can be), I take my Alpha SLT with its version of 16-80. I use NEX when I need something much less bulky.

The A-Mount 50mm Zeiss is still "under development".

If I remember correctly the 500/4 was "under development" roughly 4 years before they finally released it last year...

Hope that they get it done this year.



I'm not a fan of pancakes at all, but I guess the 20mm will probably do better than the bad 16mm. Nice to have for somebody desiring an "as-tiny-as-possible" camera/lens combination.



Regarding the 18-200PZ I have mixed emotions.

I had a chance at Photokina to play with it on a VG30 cc and found the PZ working very smooth for video. Although I find it personally annyoing slow, and you need to switch between manual and PZ mode - meaning you use either or.

The PZ mechanism makes it (again personal taste) quite chunky compared to the aesthetic NEX body.

Finally the price indication - 1.200,-€. What the F... is Sony thinking?

Considering the medium IQ and the flaws of an 11x zoom the price seems being quite nasty.
