Where can i get a bnew/used 50mm f/1.7

[wedgehammer]

I tried the usual suspects but I've only stumbled on a 50mm f/2.9 macro at TK (can't afford it) and a 50mm /f3.5 macro at cathay. haven't seen the 50mm f/1.7 anywhere.

i also tried looking for used ones last weekend but wasnt able to find any in the usual haunts at peninsula area. hmmm, maybe i should make the rounds again later.

if you have seen or know of anyplace where they have them, please do let me know. thanks!

Tried looking everywhere for it too. There isn't any the best you can get is a 50mm F1.4 which is close SGD400.

true... i also saw a f/1.4, too expensive... i just want a cheap 50mm one hehehe

mebbe no choice but to get it online

Do you need it urgently? Sony should be releasing its SLR lens in June. That's only 2 months from now.

I guess you're, might as well wait and see. Hopefully Sony won't place a premium on everything hehe. Thanks mate.

hahaha, how much is this "cheaper" figure? 400 not cheap enough for you? maybe you can bargain it down to 300-350.

smtan24: where was that 50mm f/1.4 again? for the life of me i cant remember where i saw it. :-D
