Otus is like 4 times the price of the FE 55/1.8... Haha... I dun need to cut durians every other days. FE 55/1.8 is a good everyday use lens... the other 50s can keep for special use... if u need the f/1.2 and wider that is...
Seems like you guys are all "poisoned" to get the 55FE when launched!
Just a bit of preparations when you see the actual lens though.
No biggy... but the 55FE is Made in Thailand while the 35FE is Made in Japan.
Built quality is good though, so no issues.
If the 55FE is Made in Japan, maybe they would have priced it even higher?

we tried the lens already . thats why all kena poison. :bsmilie:
FE 55 made in Thailand??? With the extended political instability, no wonder the launch is getting delayed further... LOL... On a serious note, SG still havent got a firmed launch date I last check... Anybody has info otherwise?
Especially U... :bsmilie:
My regular shops all got no idea when it will be officially launched.
Could be a sign.... to buy a Otus!
cause i dont have any 50s or other lens now. so it's more worth it to get the FE55. else , i think i would have bought that nice shiny chrome CV liao :bsmilie:

Nice but prefer to see a close-up shot especially with your legendary FA 85f1.4.
Wow really nice. Sharp and contrasty . Doesnt lose out to Sony Zeiss 85mm 1.4 at all =)
Thanks.
Will post more as I generate more shots.
Posted a further full body shot, for 'privacy' reasons. (well sort of.. )
This type of wider FOV (while retaining less DOF ) shot with lenses like the 85, 100, 135mm is one of the key reasons why I got a 5D and later the A7 in the first place.
Thanks.
Its a nice lens (as are most fast 85mm; thats the problem...).
Still.... A7R with Sony Carl Zeiss FE 55mm F1.8 ZA
