always find that the Sony FE 28-70mm kit lens to be of decent quality, now i am even more surprised by the DXO scores of this kit lens compared to the much more "branded" and expensive Sony FE Carl Zeiss 24-70mm. Some of you might not even believe the test results but of cos DXO test are not the best out there, but u can get an idea how decent the kit lens is..

Yep. Thats why I am holding on to mine for days when I am lazy to manual focus. The 2470 is too expensive for its "quality".

At the current prices which I see on lomography site I would rather have a Carl Zeiss or a Voigtlander M mount lenses. Also I cant seem to find any which I can get now.. All seem to be available in June 2014.

Can I get these lenses below say 400 SGD ?

Can! Contax Zeiss CY Mount 50/1.7 around 300 - 350 sgd depending on condition... very sharp lens with signature Zeiss pop.

Also Canon LTM mount 50/1.4, possibly around 400 sgd...

Both I have used before... Bang for bucks lenses...
