This fast, sharp and real compact lens is a must for a Sony Minolta APS user. I don't understand because Sony don't has inserted this lens in its catalogue.

Questo obiettivo veloce, nitido e veramente compatto non può mancare nel corredo di un utente Minolta Sony APS. Non capisco perché Sony non ha inserito questo obiettivo nel suo catalogo.

Sharp and fast. If you take pictures at weddings this is a must. It is the poor mans digital version of Minolta's 85mm lens.

Get it now on ebay for around $80. A must have.

Since sony isn't making this one anymore, it immediately becomes a collector item. On a 7d, 5d, or alpha it becomes a 75mm lens which compares well against the more expensive 50mm f/1.4. If you own a minolta, you better have one of these!!!
