New FE 50/2.8 macro

Seems to be in the same league as that 50/1.8 lens.
Let's wait for a guinea pig ...

Hmm, what makes you say in the same league as the 50/1.8? Just because it's not GM or Zeiss?

Nice to have a cheaper and smaller macro option in the system. I bet the APS-C shooters will like this one a lot as well.

Going by the sample pictures attributed to "Sony team", quite fittingly, it produces crap.:thumbdown:

Thank you Bart and Serhan for your hints to the reviews and special thanks for the chinese ones . :ROTFL:
I read some reviews before I posted my question here , especially the phillipreeve one , but could not find what I was looking for .
I had this lens available for a couple of hours but had big trouble to properly manual focus .
I am not interested in the AF function , as I think for real macro mode you must manual focus .
What interests me is MF for focus stacking .
I encountered three major issues (might be handling issues) , which I did not describe so far .
As obviously no user here has that lens and can pass on experience , I think I should not describe the found issues and confuse readers , but am ready to do so , if wanted .
I have given back the lens and am waiting for SONY's feedback .
